manufactories, and commercial establishments of the
East-end of London on the one side, and those of
Bermondsey, Rotherhithe, Deptford, and Greenwich,
on the other side of the river.

suitable premises on each side of the Thames, and a

platforms and lifts worked by hydraulic machinery,

on board and landed in any state of the tile.
The outlay which will be required for the purpose of
the undertaking is estimated at £6,300.

of the traffic, and have taken all the pains in their
power to arrive at a just estimate .4 the probable
results of the Ferry, and from the inquiries and
