Bool between 1875 and 1886 for the Society for Photographing the Relics of Old London. "Oxford Market was built about 1724, but not opened till 1732 (Allen's London, iii., 25). In Strype's Stow (1754) it is said to be "not much resorted to at present, " a condition in which it seems to have remained till its demolition in 1880. The above description, by Alfred Marks, was taken from the letterpress which accompanies the photographs. Henry Dixon was a British photographer working in London during the 1870s and 1880s. As with many other photographers from the period, Dixon (1820-1893) originally trained as a printer. Dixon is best known for his series of photographs commissioned by the Society for Photographing Relics of Old London, of buildings that were threatened with demolition. He is also known for his animal photographs taken at London Zoo, which was close to his home. His son Thomas J. Dixon (1857-1943) worked with him. Although Henry Dixon died in 1893, the company was probably active until the beginning of the 1940s
