Wikipedia has a page about St Pancras Basin
The St Pancras Basin, also known as St Pancras Yacht Basin, is part of the Regent's Canal in the London Borough of Camden, England, slightly to the west of St Pancras Lock. Formerly known as the Midland Railway Basin, the canal basin is owned by Canal & River Trust, and since 1958 has been home to the St Pancras Cruising Club. The basin is affected by the large-scale developments in progress, related to King's Cross Central.

![King's Cross Gasholder Number 8 viewed from HS1. A view of King's Cross Gasholder Number 8 and the St Pancras Basin of the Regent's Canal, as seen from a passing Eurostar train on the approach to St Pancras International Station.Gasholder No 8 was built for the storage of town gas for Pancras Gasworks. The gasholder was originally constructed in the 1850s and expanded in 1883. The distinctive 25 metre high circular guide frame has an internal diameter of over 35 metres. The Grade II listed structure (English Heritage Building ID: 477349 http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-477349-gas-holder-greater-london-authority#.VWy-ymfbJ_s British Listed Buildings) formed part of the largest gas works in London and was a feature of the King’s Cross skyline for over 150 years. It was decommissioned in 2000.In 2011, the frame was dismantled and refurbished. In 2013 it returned to King’s Cross to be re-erected in its present position, here on the north side of Regent’s Canal overlooking Camley Street Natural Park and St Pancras Basin. When the project is complete, it will sit in new landscaping with paths leading down to the canal towpath. The frame will house a new park and event space (http://www.kingscross.co.uk/gasholder-8 King’s Cross -An extraordinary piece of London).UPDATE: see [[[4930157]]] for the view in April 2016, less than 11 months later. by David Dixon – 29 May 2015](https://s2.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/04/50/59/4505990_7fae56a2_120x120.jpg)
