Title
Tile yard in Nine Elms Lane
Description
Front elevation from the east of Nine Elms Lane brick tile yard, looking north-west. This is the eastern entrance to the yard of A.H. Lavers. Ltd. Bricks, Lime, Cement and Whiting works. An unladen waggon waits in the entrance and beside it are clay chimney pots stacked on a platform above piles of handmade bricks. Affixed to the top of what was the office is the Royal Coat of Arms (possibly indicating royal patronage?), and in the background a dock crane overhangs the unseen dockyard of Mill Pond Bridge Wharf. Wooden slats allow the air to dry the clay building products in the whiting sheds. In the cobbled main road tram tracks are visible. These buildings no longer exist and this is now the location of the Heathwall sewage pumping station of the Thames Tideway project.
