Framed Print of The Great Wool-floor at the London Docks

The great wool-floor at the London Docks. The London Dock Company enlarged the warehouse for receiving wool imports from the colonies in the 1840 s, providing considerable space for storing and viewing. The ILN estimated wool importation to be 130, 000 bales annually in 1850, with a value of 2.6 million. Each bale was inspected by drawing out a portion of wool, which was dropped on the floor after examination so that...the parties inspecting it frequently walk knee-deep in loose wool.
