Reviews

'London's Waterfront, published by Archaeopress... stands out by adding new dimensions to what we know and what we do not yet know about the capital's history... Centered on four neighbouring sites, [the book] tells the story of 16 tenements situated on either side of Medieval London Bridge, including the site of St Botolph Billingsgate parish church. It draws together finds and features, documentary and - for the later period - pictorial sources, presenting the development of the waterfront, including its properties, buildings, lanes and main industries of brewing and dyeing.' - Marit Gaimster (2019):
