Butler's Wharf, Bermondsey, London, late 19th or early 20th century. Crates of goods wrapped in straw for protection are unloaded in London and set on the conveyor belt to the warehouses. The small hut in the centre of the picture is probably where the overseer kept records of the cargo. From the Butlers Wharf Collection: some time before 1910 the directors of Butlers Wharf Ltd, commissioned a series of photographs detailing aspects of the company's work.
