The Wharf and Quay Street, St Ives, Cornwall

"One of a great series of studies of St Ives, Cornwall. The Wharf & Quay Street from Seagull Flats, Morning. The Harbour Beach Foresand, cottages & Quay House, St Leonard's Chapel, the Pilot's Office (now the Harbour Master's Office), punts on the beach & washing drying, so it's probably Monday. On the bottom right is the large sewer pipe at the bottom of the small slipway Curnow's Slip."
1954

River Thames, Boulter's Lock - Oxford

River Thames Boulter's Lock - Oxford. During Victorian times, Boulter's Lock won fame - and notoriety - across the country as thousands of people flocked to the river here to mess about and watch the wealthier classes indulge themselves. This was especially so on warm summer weekends, and particularly on the Sunday of Ascot Week (horse racing festival), when there were pageants, carnivals and regattas. Date: circa 1910s
