A beautiful view into the pre-policing world of 'Parish Watchmen'. I particularly like the water fountain, though the entire painting is very special indeed.

This painting by Charles William Wyllie depicts the Angel pub in #Rotherhithe, South #London (c.1887) [101 #Bermondsey Wall E, #London #SE16]. Like many riverside pubs, it was a den of cut-throats & press gangs. It sits on what was once the manor house of King Edward III (1300s).
