E14 escorts, one postcode from Limehouse Basin to Island Gardens
E14 is the postcode tucked inside the great loop of the Thames. It holds the towers of Canary Wharf, the whole of the Isle of Dogs down to its southern tip, Limehouse and its marina on the western edge, and Poplar and Blackwall to the north. All of it lies in Zone 2, so travel is always part of the fee.
Think of this page as a map in words: where the postcode begins and ends, the terms that hold across it, and which district page suits your address.

Where the postcode starts and stops
The western edge is Limehouse Basin and the white stone tower of St Anne's church. The eastern edge is the Blackwall Tunnel approach, with the O2 glowing across the water. South of the towers, the island runs through Millwall and Cubitt Town to the riverside park at its tip, where a foot tunnel dives under the river to Greenwich.
Three districts inside it have their own pages: the squares and hotels of Canary Wharf, the Isle of Dogs south of the docks, and Limehouse by the basin. Poplar, Blackwall and Millwall are covered on the same terms; just give us the street.
Rules that hold anywhere in E14
One arrival window: usually within the hour of confirmation, often sooner early in the evening. One ladder, in pounds: an hour is £250 and two are £500; four hours as a dinner date cost £900; the overnight is ten hours at £1,800. Every figure is on rates. One check: the booking name, the building and the room or flat, confirmed once on WhatsApp. Call it off with three clear hours' notice and you owe nothing.
Choosing the page that fits your address
Staying at a hotel around the squares or at West India Quay? Read Canary Wharf. A tower on Marsh Wall, a flat in Millwall or a room at the Britannia? The Isle of Dogs. A warehouse flat on Narrow Street or a berth by the basin? Limehouse. And if your address is across the river, Greenwich has a page of its own, one short DLR ride under the Thames.
Companions who already know the postcode include Luna from Mayfair, Michelle from Chelsea, and Nancy and Tina, who both set out from Covent Garden.
Asked about E14
Yes. Poplar and Blackwall sit inside E14 and inside Zone 2, so the rates and arrival times match the estate.
No. Flats, serviced apartments and hotel rooms carry the same fee. For a home we confirm the building and flat number in place of a room.
Canary Wharf, two minutes from the central squares, where three lines meet: Jubilee, Elizabeth and DLR. On the island, South Quay and Crossharbour sit closer to the towers along Marsh Wall.
At any hour. Someone reads every message through the night, and once the trains thin out she comes by car, which in the small hours is often quicker anyway.
