St Pancras Cruising Club is a members' association of boat owners located between Camden Town and Islington on the Regent's Canal in central London. Most boats in the basin are narrowboats, the most common form of craft on the British canals. As the club is near to King's Cross Station, it is affected by the ongoing developments at King's Cross Central, formerly known as the Railway Lands. ==Location and facilities== SPCC is based at St Pancras Basin, next to Camley Street Natural Park, between St Pancras Station (the Eurostar terminal) and St Pancras Old Church (the second oldest site of Christianity in England). The club, which was founded in 1958, is situated in a basin that was used to handle building stone. SPCC has a clubhouse with a bar. It constructed the first new dry dock in London for many decades, now the only one in the city. In 2001 the club became the guardian of a listed water tower, originally used to refill the steam locomotives. The Victorian Gothic brick structure, designed by the office of Sir George Gilbert Scott around 1870, was moved a few hundred metres to save it from the path of the Eurostar.〔(All change at St Pancras )〕
