More about this scene
The Late 19th to the Early 20th Century Forget six counties overhung with smoke Forget the snorting steam and piston stroke, Forget the spreading of the hideous town; Think rather of the pack-horse on the down, And dream of London, small, and white and clean, The clear Thames bordered by its gardens green.
An extract from North London Photographic Memories.
