1978 was really the year I came of age as a photographer, having met and been challenged, inspired and encouraged by one of the UK's greatest photographers and teachers through a series of workshops. Raymond Moore made me think seriously about producing bodies of work that led to my projects on Hull and on London. I was still desperately short of time, working well over 60 hours a week during term-time in my teaching job (and even shorter of sleep after my second son was born.) Among the first fruits of this were a series of images on the former docklands in Southwark, and this was one of the earliest images.
