Inscription
Extraordinary high tide
January 7th 1928 when 75 ft of this wall were demolished.
Leonard Collyer - Warden.
The 75 ft of wall which collapsed may actually have been in Millbank which is not only a long way away but is on the other side of the river - so not part of "this wall" in any physical sense.
Site: Thames flood level markers (3 memorials)
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.
