Personal name(s):Bambridge, William, 1819-1879; Scammell. E. D. (Mr), fl 1930s
Addition Description:Compare A-090-018. This view (A-090-017) shows the house in more detail, but lacks the large ship being built as shown in A-090-018. The similarity of the two views appears to be the reason that Chief Librarian Johannes Andersen attributed the work to Bambridge. However the style is not that of Bambridge
