The #Prospect of #Whitby still stands today on the #River #Thames in #Wapping. Initially built in 1520, it was known as 'the Devil's Tavern' through its association with #thieves and #smugglers. Its name was changed to 'The Prospect of Whitby' in 1777.

Phoenix Wharf, St John’s Wharf, King Henry’s Wharf. Imagining the overwhelming scent of tea, spices, gunpowder and other goods once housed in these magnificent wharehouses. Love this area, my only gripe is the loss of sense of community re some of the newer developments #Wapping #London #LoveLondon
