THAMES THROUGH TIME: A LIQUID HISTORY (HB)

Drawing on the unrivalled photographic archives of English Heritage, this is a journey along the length of the Thames and across nearly 150 years. We see the rural Thames as it approaches London, riverside towns, the civic and commercial development of the riverbanks, the working docks and warehouses, the development of the web of bridges that now links north and south, barges, sailing ships and warships, the great flood defences and a tiny beach that flourished briefly at the Tower of London.
