Castles, London houses and lost corners of the old capital are drawn in these prints by Walter Francis Tiffin, made for Charles Knight's Old England, an illustrated survey of regal, ecclesiastical, municipal and popular antiquities. The 1845 wood engravings credit Tiffin with the drawing and other craftsmen, including T. Williams, with the cutting. Subjects range from Naworth and Deal castles to Moor Park and older views of St Paul's, while historical scenes reconstruct Vauxhall, Rosamond's Pond and Westminster. Water carriers, the Knightsbridge watering house and royal artefacts complete the picture.
