Summary
DescriptionIsle of Dogs in the 18th century.png |
English: A detail from Robert Dodd's painting in oils "Greenwich from the Isle of Dogs", cropped to show a part of the Isle of Dogs of which no other 18th century image exists.
The land, reclaimed marsh - rich grazing for cattle - is below high water mark, and is defended by artificial embankments. If these were not kept in repair, there could be serious flooding. In this scene a group of people is waiting for the ferry, which ran from the southern tip of the peninsula. |
