Summary

[edit]
Description This is Monday 21st June 1897 which was designated 'Thanksgiving Day'. Church services were held all over the country to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria. In this case the venue is St. Saviours Church which later became Southwark Cathedral in 1905. The Soldiers on Parade are members of the 3rd Volunteer Battalion The Queen's Royal West Surrey Regiment also known as the 'Bermondsey Volunteers". The Colonel of the Battalion was Samuel Bevington a former Mayor of Bermondsey and a well known figure locally. The west end of the church is to the left of the photographer and the narrow street ahead leads into St. Mary Overie Dock or St. Saviour's Dock, there is also a St. Saviour's Dock just downstream of London Bridge at Shad Thames, this one is just upstream of London Bridge on the south bank, it is now the home of a replica of Sir. Francis Drake's 'Golden Hind' . Just opposite the dock is a very popular tourist pub called 'The Thameside Inn' which was granted a Licence whilst I was Licensing Sergeant at Southwark Police Station. The Police Officers are probably from my old nick but it was a very different building at that time.
