Bermondsey Street, Christy's Hat Factory

The entrance to the factory yard was through an arch under buildings that fronted directly onto Bermondsey Street, just north of Newham Row, and led to the large factory buildings. Some of the buildings that faced directly onto Bermondsey Street were also owned by Christy’s. 500 people were employed at the factory.

(Note:Russell Street is now called Tanner Street, and the Workhouse and street named St George’s Place are now the site of Tanner Street Park)
