Brewery Demolition Georgian Lead Works Riverscape Shot Tower South Bank Water Transport Waterscape


EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in Lambeth, Greater London, back in 1936. The focal point of the image is the impressive shot tower at Lambeth Lead Works, standing tall against the backdrop of the River Thames. Designed by David Ridall Roper and built in 1826 for Thomas Maltby & Co. , this Georgian structure was an architectural marvel of its time. Operated by Walkers, Parker & Co. during this period, the shot tower played a vital role in producing lead shots for various purposes. However, it met its unfortunate fate when it was demolished in 1962 to make way for the Queen Elizabeth Hall. To the right of the shot tower stands another significant landmark - The Lion Brewery. Constructed between 1836-37, this brewery added to Lambeth's rich industrial heritage but sadly faced demolition itself in 1949 to pave way for what would become known as Royal Festival Hall. This photograph not only showcases these iconic structures but also provides a glimpse into life along the riverscape of South Bank during that era. It serves as a reminder of Lambeth's industrial past and how urban landscapes evolve over time. Captured by Charles William Prickett on behalf of Historic England, this print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate and reflect upon London's history through its architectural gems and ever-changing cityscape.
