Summary

Description
English: Battersea: Ransome's Dock (1) This is one of the last surviving docks built off the River Thames upstream of the Tower of London. The dock is dog-legged with a narrow straight section leading off the river, with this wider dock to the south. The 1874 Edition of the Ordnance Survey mapping shows only the straight section, but by the time the 1896 Edition was published this pool is shown too. The brick chimney may have been part of the foundry shown on the 1874 map, while 828344 peeps out behind it. Ransome's Dock Restaurant is on the left.
