Hi melcir.meri. The Mansion House in this photograph was in Newcastle, I apologise, I should have put that on the description.

Hi- do you have more information on the barges? Do you know why they were built or what they were based on? Thanks, Greg

Hi Greg, the barge in this photograph was the Lord Mayors barge. "The protection of the river was demonstrated each year on Barge Day when the Mayor, in his capacity as President of the Court of Admiralty, inspected riverside staithes etc..This system survived until 1974 when the office of Alderman was abolished."
