One day I was browsing through a local junk market and realised that there was a lot of photographic stuff on one of the stalls. It turned out to be a clearance from the house of photographer W.A. Hammond. This name was written on many of the slides, correspondences and some prints. Luckily I was able to acquire these very interesting slides, negatives, glass plates and photo albums. When I went through all the material I realised that I had found some treasure! Many images were from parades, car rallies, modelling etc. Aside from these Hammond had a large collection of images showing London Dockyards, from London Bridge all the way to Woolwich. These images were taken around the 1950's and 1960's. There are over 150 colour slides and some negatives. Having so many old interesting slides I wanted to share them on my website in tribute to Hammond and for everyone to see how different London looked in just the last century. This is the first part of images of London Dockyards taken by W.A. Hammond.
