Summary

[edit]
Description

Cotton Street, Poplar, London

Photogravure by Donald Macleish from Wonderful London by St John Adcock, 1927.

It is doubtful if the Borough Council of Poplar had any notion, when they supplied the district with water carts, that the supplementary use pictured would be made of them.

The boys are following the water cart down Cotton Street, and the building behind them is Cotton Street Baptist Chapel. It was destroyed in the 1940 German Blitz and was not rebuilt.
