Charles Nelson of Hoxton working as a "knocker-up" in Hackney (London, 1929). He had been in this job for 25yrs at this point, waking up early-morning workers such as market traders, drivers and doctors.
A forgotten profession, the "Knocker-Up.” In the days before alarm clocks were affordable, people like Mary Smith in this photograph, were hired to wake people early in the morning. Here we see Mrs. Smith shooting dried peas at the window of a Client in London, 1895
Granny Cousins (1837 – 1927) was Poole's last knocker-upper, working from 1901 to 1918.
Most of Poole's factory workers began work at 6am, and she charged 3p a week to wake up workers by tapping on their bedroom windows. She carried a lantern, a long pole to tap the windows with, and a whistle to blow if anyone assaulted her. Her rounds took her from the quay to the gas works.
Mrs. Bowers began knocking up during WW1 in Sacriston (Durham). She woke every morning at 1am to wake the miners for their early shift, accompanied by her dog Jack.
Mary Smith was a well-known knocker-up in East London, charging 6p a week, using a pea-shooter to wake her clients up! Her daughter, also called Mary, followed her into the job, and was one of the last knocker-ups in London.

Rise and shine!
The modern worker rolls out of bed, groans, and turns off an alarm clock. But industrial-era British and Irish workers relied on a different method for rising each morning. In the 19th century and well into the 20th, a human alarm clock known as a “knocker-up” (knocker-upper) would trawl the streets and wake paying customers in time for work. Armed with sticks—or, in the case of Mary Smith, a pea shooter—they tapped on windows or blasted them with dried peas.
During the Industrial Revolution in England, before alarm clocks were reliable or prevalent, a "knocker-up" would knock on windows to wake people so they would not be late to work.
