UPPER GROUND/BODDY'S BRIDGE.

Postby kiwi » Mon May 20, 2019 3:32 am

This part of Upper Ground was called Upper Ground Street. The part by Waterloo Bridge was called Commercial Road. Boddy's Bridge was on the otherside of the Engineering Works (left)

Would just like to say that though it as Lambeth on the picture it is Southwark & SE1.

The Shot Tower was in Old Shot Tower Wharf which was off Commercial Road and near to where Gabriel’s Wharf is today.

If you look at the map (first Post) it looks as though Upper Ground went right and (Old) Barge House Street went straight on.
