'The Tower Moat', (c1872). View of the moat around the Tower of London, when it still contained water. It was drained and filled with earth in the 1840s after an outbreak of disease in the garrison, caused by poor water supply, resulted in several deaths. From Old and New London, Vol. II: A Narrative of Its History, Its People, and Its Places, by Walter Thornbury. [Cassell, Petter, Galpin & Co., London, Paris & New York]
