Hi Everyone, @josh_frost89 here for today’s ##LowTideLockdown exploring the rich and complex maritime history of #Deptford. We’ll be taking a virtual walk along the foreshore from Watergate Street up to St George’s Stairs. ImageImage
Deptford’s maritime and shipbuilding history goes back to the formation by Henry VIII of a dockyard here is 1513, a year after the one at Woolwich. The dockyard was built in the area around Deptford Strand and can be seen in this map owned John Evelyn from 1623 #LockdownLowTide Image
Our walk begins at Watergate Street stairs, with the wall of the Dockyard on one side and the Master Shipwright’s House beyond. Amongst the many shipwrights who worked here were the Pett family. Four of them were Master Shipwrights between 1550 and 1668. Image
