Henry Dixon & Son, Old Houses in Aldersgate Street

Old Houses in Aldersgate Street, ca.1879

From: Henry Dixon & Son

RA Collection: Art

"This group of houses has no history that can be, or at least has been, traced. The houses are interesting specimens of street architecture of the beginning of the seventeenth century. They are now about to be demolished."

The above description, by Alfred Marks, was taken from the letterpress which accompanies the photographs.
