EDITORS COMMENTS
This page from an 1846 publication offers a vivid account of the aftermath of one of the most destructive storms to hit London in the 19th century. The series of engravings depict the devastating impact of the storm on various parts of the city, from Blackheath in the south to Blackfriars Bridge in the north. The central image shows the storm in full swing over Blackheath, with trees uprooted and buildings battered by the fierce winds and torrential rain. The surrounding engravings document the destruction caused by the storm in other areas of the city. At Blackfriars Bridge, the storm surge destroyed the temporary bridge that had been built to replace the old one while it was being rebuilt. In Middle Row, Holborn, the storm caused significant flooding, with sewers and brooks overflowing and inundating the streets. The storm, which hit London on the night of August 15, 1846, was particularly destructive due to the high tides and heavy rainfall. The storm surge flooded many parts of the city, causing widespread damage to buildings, roads, and infrastructure. The storm also resulted in numerous fatalities, with estimates putting the death toll at over 200. The aftermath of the storm was a scene of chaos and destruction, with rescue efforts underway to help those affected by the disaster. The images on this page serve as a poignant reminder of the power of nature and the resilience of the people of London in the face of adversity. The 1840s were a period of significant growth and change in London, and this storm served as a stark reminder of the challenges that came with urbanization and the need for better infrastructure to protect against natural disasters.
