Montgomery's Wharf

Categories: Commerce

Built before 1894, it had yards, a saw mill and was a depot for hay and straw. This photo shows one of the surviving buildings on the site. At The History of Brentford it is tagged "Montgomery's Wharf" and captioned "High Street, Brentford. Built pre-1894".

This 1893 map shows Montgomery's Wharf marked. This 1935 map shows the site further developed.
