I thought this week that rather than look at another industry or site of an industry perhaps I could do something we could call “a literature review - something covering what people have written about industrial history in Greenwich the past.
I understand that as long ago as 1957 a group was set up called the Thames Basin Archaeology Observers Group and that in 1966 they set up an industrial archaeology section. More about them in a moment.
First of all I wanted to mention a big glossy book produced in 1961. In last week’s article I quoted from Aubrey Wilson’s ‘London’s Industrial Heritage’. It’s a very attractive book with great black-and-white pictures by someone called Joseph McKeown. They were involved in the Industrial Monuments of London Project and I have no idea what that was. The book takes in the whole of London and has many pages on specialist old machinery and some big well-known sites – like Tower Bridge (only 66 years old when the book was written)
So, what did Audrey Wilson have to say about Greenwich. There are actually only two Greenwich why they always come straight that she lives a sea sites in it - one of them is the planing machine at Grafton’s in Eltham which I described last week. The other site is ‘Deptford East Power Station’. Of course in 1961 the power station was not only still at work but still expanding and the part of it which had been Sebastian Ferranti’s original ‘first power station in the world’ was still part of the working site – but the text talks about Ferranti and there is the famous picture of the “first power station in the world to generate and transmit electricity next high tension”. With it is a photograph of some of the original power station incorporated into the power station as it was in 1961, so we can see it is the same building. I guess they would be scandalised to know that that is now all demolished, with no reference whatsoever to it on the site.
The nearest site to Greenwich – but in another borough - is a bit of a mystery to me. It is described as an overhead crane in New Cross in the ‘General Engine and Boiler Company works’ – obviously long gone – and that it was built for railway locomotive manufacture. Yes we did make railway locomotives in South East London! Aubrey Wilson goes on about this crane at some length saying it was probably installed in 1873. Clearly it can’t possibly exist now and that whole site was cleared years ago. But I have never heard anyone mention this crane. Can anybody out there who knows about it enlighten us?
If you get a chance to see it this 1961 book is interesting with beautiful pictures. Maybe the best thing ever produced on London’s industrial heritage.
To get back to the industrial section of the Thames Basin Archaeological Observers Group. In 1969 they produced a booklet on the industrial monuments of Greater London. Nothing like a glossy publication, quite honestly it looks a bit home-made and although I know that copies were distributed among interested people I’ve
never actually seen an original copy. All I have myself is a very, very dodgy scan. I do however lately know some of the people who were involved in it - all of course men.
So, what was seen in 1969 by this quite keen group of researchers as the industrial monuments to Greater London? What do they have to say about Greenwic? I’m sorry but this is going to be a bit of a list but here are the sites which they identified - with my comments in italics underneath each one.
FORMER
ROYAL WOOLWICH DOCKYARD
Founded early 16thC. Woolwich Church Street, S.E.18 Retains several 18th and 19th century naval buildings, including two impressive granite graving docks, built in early 19th century.
Well yes, and good for them listing this. In 1969 the housing estate was barely started and the group would obvioulsy have had no way of knowing what the future was for many of the older buildings. It’s good to see that the two graving docks are mentioned.
ROYAL WOOLWICH ARSENAL, founded late 17thC, North of Plumstead Rd, S.E.18, Several important 18th and 19th century buildings remain, also many examples of iron construction and walling, and early use of reinforced concrete. The Rink has now been demolished.
Again, good for them! So often gets ignored despite its importance and size. In 1969 they would have had no way of knowing what was on the site or finding out, so this is a very brave entry indeed. Perhaps someone could enlighten us as to what they mean by the Rink.
THAMES PEDESTRIAN SUBWAY (1876)
Woolwich - North Woolwich Pedestrian tunnel constructed using Great head devised compressed air tunnelling apparatus and hydraulic segment lifters.
They’ve actually made a mistake here. The 1876 using rated system was never finished and never opened. The existing foot tunnel is from 1902 and built by the London County Council.
GREENWICH PEDESTRIAN SUBWAY
Greenwich. Narrow bore foot tunnel.
As with the Woolwich tunnel this dates from 1902. I would also question whether this tunnel, only 60 years old in 1961, really counts as industrial heritage. It’s useful but it’s a public work not an industry.
BLACKWALL ROAD, TUNNEL (1897)
Tunnel Avenue S.E.10 The current dueling
of the tunnel retains the Southern Tunnel House, which is in the form of a stone gatehouse with art nouveau detailing.
I am not sure if the southbound tunnel was opened when this book was produced. My impression is that it opened some time in late 1969. It’s also interesting that here they say nothing about the construction of the terminal which is exceptionally interesting although good for them to mention the gatehouse. Again we are talking about something which is only sixty years old and not really industrial.
FORMER WINDMILL late 18thC ld Mill Road, Plumstead Common, S.E.18 Only brick tower of former tower mill remains. Then again they pick up on this fairly obscure site. Well it’s still there – although I’ve never been in it and I notice the pub is mentioned in their write-up above. This is another site which often gets left out.
DEPTFORD EAST GENERATING
STATION in Aubrey Wilson’s book
DEPTFORD SEWAGE PUMPING STATION
Greenwich High Road, S.E.10 Brick and stone Italianate pump house, by Metropolitan Board of Works, originally containing four single cylinder beam engines now removed, which lifted low level flow into Southern Outfall Sewer.
Still there and a site which needs to be mentioned, still in use and of
course now part of a groundbreaking scheme for the Tideway Tunnel.
WATER TOWER (1910) Shooters
Hill, S.E.18 Octagonal multicoloured brick and stone water tower with high pitched roof above steel tank.
Another site which doesn’t get mentioned very often and again it’s a public service building rather than industrial, although it was built by a private water company.
CORN MILL & SILOS J.H.Robinson, Deptford Bridge & Creek, S.E.10 Typical florid late 19th century multistorey mills with boat dock facilities on site of former tide mills.
At last a real industrial site - which was not to last very much longer being burnt down in the early ‘70s. Some of the Robinson site was on the old tide mill site but the bigger part of it was on Deptford Bridge.
MUMFORDS FLOUR MILL & SILO (1897) Deptford Creek, Greenwich High Road, S.E.10
Fine multistorey windowless silo built in decorative red and yellow brick, with stone dressings and plaque, by Aston Webb.
Clearly a major feature of Greenwich High Road and converted to flats. It shows what happens when you get a really posh architect building your silo but it’s a site which gets noticed and is in lots of books.
BAIRDS MALTINGS Greenwich High
Road, S.E.10 Group of mill buildings .1852, 1888 Kilns and owners house
Bit confused by this. The Maltings site which everybody knew about and which was subject to an archaeological dig was in Stockwell Street. The Greenwich High Road site was fairly obscure and I’m surprised they knew about it. Of course Bairds had moved to Witham in the early 1960s, but only in this last couple of months have they stopped making Greenwich Crystal Malt.
WHITWORTH PLANING MACHINE
In Aubrey Wilson’s book
This is all saw well and good but most of the sites they have picked up have been public infrastructure with only a few bits of manufacturing industry. Where are some of the massive factories which were very much still in work in 1969 - where are the cables, the telephones, the medicine bottles, the motorbikes and much much more?
The Greater London Industrial Archaeology Society was set up in 1969 with a newsletter covering all London. Perhaps I should go right through it and see what Greenwich sites they mention. I might write something about these early newsletters in another article if people think it would be interesting.
Hope you found this interesting and I might come back to it later.
