Old palaces, abbey remains and charitable foundations around London give these views by T. Carreras a strongly antiquarian character. They were published in 1888, but several reproduce earlier images: Theobalds Palace follows an 1836 print, Old Croydon Palace looks back to 1769, Eastbury House at Barking is associated with Lysons, and Lesnes Abbey is shown with seals. Beckenham Church, Gough Park at Enfield, Ilford Hospital and the entrance to Woolwich Arsenal complete a circuit of the capital that reaches into Hertfordshire, Essex and Kent.
