More about this scene

We can just see the second Hunsdon public house, the Fox and Hounds, in the distance on the left, with houses in Tanner's Way (on the opposite side of the road) behind. The Fox and Hounds was a popular meeting-place for London cyclists in the traffic-free 1920s.

The jetty of the adjacent house is supported by a pair of ornate mythical creatures.
