UPPER FORE STREET, LAMBETH

A cobblestone alley way off Upper Fore Street, Lambeth, with J. Stiff's pottery in the distance. A view showing factories and warehouses, with a loaded cart at a warehouse entrance. This area later replaced by the Albert Embankment. Photograph William Strudwick (1834-1910). He recalled: 'I found a good number of subjects in old Lambeth....in this work I was assisted very much by a large dark tent or house'. He also worked as an architect, artist and writer. Strudwick lived for much of his life in Lambeth, but died in the Infirmary at Croydon Workhouse and was buried in the Paupers' Cemetery.
