The map shows at the top South Dock (in 19th century called East Country Dock) which is still extant and used as a marina, and at Deptford Wharf there is Dudman's Dock (incorrectly called Deadman's Dock on some maps), and South of that the larger wet dock - called Gordon's Dock on some maps. The south part of that dock (the hatched area) is a covered area for handling goods that would spoil in heavy rain, such as flour, etc. The railway branch serving the docks was built in 1848. The rail jetty into the dock was built sometime between 1894 and 1914, as it is not present on the 1894 map. To the South of Gordon's dock is the Navy Victualling Yard - a large area, formerly gardens, that was in use until 1961. A branch off the railway, built c1900, travels South down the centre of Grove Street serving the Victualling Yard and the foreign cattle market. Further south still (and not on the map) are the Deptford Naval Dockyards, which were in use until 1869. Both naval and commercial shipping were built at Deptford Wharf up to 1812.
