'The Embankment, from Charing Cross Bridge', (1881). Creator: Unknown.

'The Embankment, from Charing Cross Bridge', (1881). The Embankment Gardens in London were created in 1874, on the reclaimed land on the inward side of the Victoria Embankment next to the River Thames. At left is the York Watergate, built in 1626, which gave access to the Thames from York House, a mansion on the Strand. The building of the Thames Embankment left it 150 yards from the river. From Old and New London: A Narrative of Its History, Its People, and Its Places. Westminster and the Western Suburbs, by Edward Walford, Vol. III. [Cassell, Petter, Galpin & Co., London, Paris & New York, 1881].
