Sorting a dust heap at a County Council Depot, London, c1850 (1903). Dust-yards were privately run waste sorting centres, sifting and sorting varying grades of rubbish. The employment of dust-yards declined after 1850 due to the influence of the Sanitation Movement. From Living London, Vol. II, by George R. Sims.
