Making Londons queerest hats.
In the steep winding alleyway which slopes into Billingsgate fish market, and which is known as Love Lane, there is a tiny 250 year old shop in which the man who makes Londons queerest hats carries on his trade, that of making leather hats for the Billingsgate fish porters. Mr Edward Spink, the hatter, traces his descent back to the auguenots and all his ancestors were leather workers. The mould used for making the hats is an old German soldiers helmet, which he captured during war.
Mr Edward Spink at work in his little shop making the leather hats for Billingsgate fish porters, note the Old German helmet used as a last.
