| L1666. Navvy camp, circa 1897. By the time the Last Main Line was built, navvies no longer inhabited the crude and inadequate dwellings which they had endured for much of the nineteenth century. Instead, they were housed in hutted camps erected by the contractor, like this one at Charwelton, Northamptonshire. | |
