EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the picturesque scene of the Watermen and Lightermens Almshouses in Penge, Kent, back in 1842. The almshouses served as a sanctuary for those less fortunate, providing shelter and support to the poor during a time when poverty was prevalent across Britain. The image showcases the exterior of these historic buildings, showcasing their architectural beauty and significance. Built by Benjamin Baud, this engraving depicts a moment frozen in time - a testament to England's rich history. The monochrome tones add depth and character to the photograph, emphasizing its timeless appeal. Located in what is now known as Bromley borough within London, these almshouses were established by the Company of Watermen and Lightermen - an esteemed guild dedicated to supporting individuals involved in water trade. This concept of charity resonates throughout British history, highlighting the compassion that existed even amidst challenging times. Preserved by WF Starling at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, this image serves as a window into 19th-century England's social landscape. It reminds us of our collective responsibility towards helping those in need while celebrating both architectural excellence and philanthropy.
