	London docks, a photo study of London's docklands in 1980
		London's been a major port since Roman times, growing in importance after the Industrial Revolution and the development of the Empire.
		The docks have helped London become one of the greatest trading cities in the world, and created its cosmopolitan nature with waves of Jewish immigrants arriving in 1653, French Protestant Huguenot silk weavers in 1685, followed by Jewish settlers from Poland, Romania and Russia between 1870 and 1914.
		I was keen to develop and print my own photos but, sadly, living in a hideous dump in East Ham that was infested with mice, fleas and ne'er before seen 'furniture mite' beasties meant that the place was awash with dust and crawling bugs.
