The Doulton Potteries, can be seen on the left, with G.Tatum, H.Hawes and R.Bain, boat builders in the centre, Lambeth Rice Mills and James Stiff, drainpipe manufacturers on their right. The 1915 Woolley Collection catalogue entry states: 'a foreshore containing many and varied industries, which have since lapsed or moved from Lambeth. It was an animated and picturesque scene formerly'. Photographed using the 'wet plate' method by William Strudwick (1834-1910).
