Buildings along Turnmill street. The river Fleet flowed strongly here once, and actually drove various mills. Some of these were associated with brewers and distilleries. Thus gin was a popular product made here once. Smithfield meat market is at the back, and the effluent from the meat and milling so polluted the Fleet, that it had to be closed!
