CLINK STREET & BANKSIDE.
Re: CLINK STREET & BANKSIDE.
Ceylon Wharf. Owned by Harrison and Crosfield and was their largest tea warehouse. The partnership dated from 1844 and moved to London in 1854. In the 1890s it took on the blending and packing of teas, and imports from Ceylon at Ceylon Wharf, Bankside in Southwark. They diversified into managing plantations and much of the company's interest in tea was disposed of in 1916 on the formation of Twining, Crosfield. The wharf was demolished in 1982.

I Remember the railway wagon from when I was on the railway late 1950s. They would shake you to bits had holes everywhere so you would freeze in the winter and it had push up windows, every time you hit a hole in the road the windows would fall down.

An incredible aerial view shot of London in the middle of the 20th century, with the Bankside Power Station (now Tate Modern art gallery) in the foreground left and a flat docklands area lying beyond.

Swan at the Globe formally the Welsh Trooper (Welch Trooper) was listed as 36 Emerson Street (1861), then 37 Bankside (1869) now 21 New Globe Walk, SE1, was renamed in the mid-1990s.
The Watermans Arms the first trust public house to be opened in London. While alcoholic drinks were still sold, the emphasis was given to tea and coffee urns rather than to bottles and barrels, as a way of reversing London's insobriety c 1904.

This was in Honduras Wharf, near to where the Tate Modern is today.
