Description |
English: Brunswick Dock on the Thames at Blackwall Print entitled 'Brunswick Dock on the Thames at Blackwall... chiefly intended for the accommodation & protection of ships of the Honble the East India Company...'. The print was drawn, engraved and published by Daniell, who also painted the same view in oil (BHC1867). See that entry, which includes a description based on the full inscription under this image, which also bears a dedication to John Perry. He built the Brunswick Dock in 1789-90 and retired in 1803, the year this print was issued, leaving the Blackwall shipyard of which it was part in the hands of his partners, the Wells, Wigram and Green families. The Wells brothers already had a half share in the dock by the time of Perry's retirement, when he sold them the other half: they immediately resold to the new East India Dock Company-in which Perry was also an investor. When the Company opened the converted complex in 1806, the Brunswick basin was the East India Export Dock: the East India Import Dock was dug out, parallel to it, in the fields shown here on the left and had a separate entrance from the Thames beyond the Brunswick complex as shown here. This included a small entry basin which also connected with the far end of the Brunswick basin. |
