That's a 'Cracker' young Kevin.
Must be Dave and George in an earlier life on the Foreshore. Far to young for us!!
The 'Graffiti' looks interesting as well!
I assume the Wall to the right with the Foyboats is Readheads Landing. The area in the foreground was used for Shipbuilding until it became a Woodyard.
If that's Shadwell Street and Pilot Street, Amy Flagg lists:-
Robert Wallis and his Successors.
William and Catherine Forster, c 1773-1791.
James Evans and his Son. 1788-1831.
John Wright. 1773-1803.
Messrs Attley, Swan and Brown. 1803-1808.
J & P Laing. 1818-1830.
T D Marshall & Son. 1839-1859.
Thomas W Wawn. 1846-1852.
Blumer & Bushell. c 1847-?
J P Rennoldson & Sons. 1863-1929.
W P Greenwell. c1857-1865.
Readhead and Softley 1864-1872.
John Softley. 1874-1875.
John Readhead & Company. 1872....
and
Charles Rennoldson & Co 1913-1930.
So plenty to chose from!!
