English: Southampton Water, Pier and Quay
The full caption reads: " Southampton Water, Pier and Quay: the 'Oriental' standing off the Quay, the 'Tagus' lying along-side the Pier, and the 'Pluto' East India Steamer to the extreme right; viewed from the top of the Custom House on Regatta-Day." (it also shows 'Ruby' and 'Gadabout') The print can be dated from around 1840. The left-bottom corner shows a gas column erected in 1829 to the Town Quay. It carried a light as a navigation for shipping. The Royal Pier was opened in 1833. It also bears the Coat of Arms of Queen Victoria - from 20 June 1837 (with thanks to Mr Bernard Andrews for providing this information). It can also be found bound in Sir William Cope"Views in Hampshire", vol.4: illus. 232. |
