Description

Mark Brown's Wharves was a large complex of wharf buildings on the south bank of the River Thames to the immediate west of Tower Bridge. The wharves covered much of the area now occupied by Potters Field Park. The Bedford Lemere daybook does not record the client for whom this series of photographs was taken, but it is likely to have been either the designer of the new Mark Brown's Wharf Building or perhaps Leach and Company, who operated in the Mark Brown and Davis wharves at this time (source: Post Office London Directory 1925).
