Walking the River ......... by the Cutty Sark

A short series taken from one day when I walked along the River.




Back then the Thames was still a place to to earn a wage and watch as ships, and barges plied their way on the water.*

Location; the Thames

Picture; the River in 1979, from the collection of Andrew Simpson

  2. I know this area well I live not far from there and a friend lived in one of the houses behind the man in the picture.
