Their wharf, with a crane and extensive open-sided sheds, is to the right, with two loaded barges and a punt moored by it. On the opposite bank of the river is a tug-boat, with another barge behind it. A team of horses is hauling several large tree-trunks across the bridge between the firm's yards in Abbey Street and King's Road. 1930-1939 : copy of a photograph by Barrow
