Society for Photographing Relics of Old London

The Society for Photographing Relics of Old London was founded in 1875 in London, England, with the purpose of recording the Oxford Arms, a traditional galleried public house that was to be demolished as part of the redevelopment of the Old Bailey.^[1] It continued to document the old buildings of London threatened with demolition until its dissolution in 1886.

Amongst the photographers who contributed to it were Henry Dixon, and Alfred and John Bool.
