The South-Eastern Railway Company's Works on the River: view from Southwark Bridge... 1864. Creator: Mason Jackson
The South-Eastern Railway Company's Works on the River: view from Southwark Bridge, looking east, 1864. The Engraving...presents a view of the piles and scaffolding erected for the purpose of building a bridge [ie the Cannon Street Railway Bridge], which is to connect the Charing-cross Railway and the South-Eastern Railway...with the intended City station in Cannon-street...A part of London Bridge, with the Tower in the distance, is seen behind the huge timber framework that stretches half way from the Surrey to the Middlesex side. The warehouses of Adelaide Wharf and those of the Old Swan Pier, below and above bridge respectively, look down upon the traffic of steam-boats which ply to and from the floating platforms or pontoons moored for the passengers landing. Fishmongers Hall is just seen above the houses at the Old Swan. The spires and turrets of half-a-dozen City churches, with the Monument, "London's pillar, " lifting its head above them all, complete this familiar scene, one feature of it alone being unfamiliar - the works now going on for the construction of the railway bridge'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864

EDITORS COMMENTS
**A Glimpse into Industrial Progress: The South-Eastern Railway Company's Works on the River, circa 1864**
This print, created by renowned artist Mason Jackson in 1864, offers a unique glimpse into London's industrial transformation during the mid-19th century. The scene depicts the construction of Cannon Street Railway Bridge, which would connect Charing-Cross and South-Eastern Railways with City Station.
From this vantage point on Southwark Bridge, looking eastward, we see the imposing timber framework stretching across the River Thames. In the distance lies London Bridge, flanked by Adelaide Wharf warehouses below and Old Swan Pier above. The bustling river traffic of steamboats plying between floating platforms adds to the dynamic atmosphere.
Notable landmarks like Fishmongers' Hall rise above houses at Old Swan, while half-a-dozen City churches with their distinctive spires and turrets dot the horizon. Amidst this familiar backdrop stands "London's pillar," the Monument, proudly lifting its head towards the sky.
This striking image not only showcases Jackson's artistic skill but also provides a fascinating snapshot of London during an era of rapid growth and innovation. As we gaze upon these industrial works in progress, we are reminded of the city's enduring spirit and capacity for transformation.
