Variable high tides
March 30th 1874
Joseph Giles - Warden
SE10, High Bridge Wharf, Trinity Hospital
Reading left to right these plaques are: Tide - 1874, Wall - 1817, Tide - 1928. We think the organisation for which the Wardens worked is probably Trinity House. The BBC has a good page about London floodings.
