THE RIVER THAMES - WEST
AS IT WAS
and
AS IT IS NOW



The River thames looking west from Kew Bridge, with Brentford and Lots Ait in the centre. On the bank can be seen one of the many sailing barges that carried goods up river as far as Isleworth. This photograph was taken prior to 1887 as the cupula of the first St.George's Church stands out in the distance.










The Old River Thames has not changed much over the last 100 years or so.
