By
the end of the 19th century Deptford
had expanded over nearly all the marshland
(what remained was to become Deptford Park)
and was firmly part of London.
The Royal Dockyard had become the Foreign
Cattle Market, and factories were being built
along the Surrey Canal and close to the excellent
railway system at New Cross to take advantage
of Deptford's large pool of cheap labour. |
