Description: | This view of the eastern end of the Strand, looking east, shows the changes wrought to the north side by the Kingsway-Aldwych improvement and the completion of the Bush Building. In the centre is the church of St Mary-le-Strand, built in 1714-17 by James Gibbs.
Many of the brands advertised on the building, such as Bass, Nestlé's, Rowntree's Chocolates, News of the World and Sun Maid raisins, are still recognisable.
There are no buses, and just one car and a horse and cart on the road, while the pavement teems with pedestrians. | Format: | image/jpeg | Publisher: | London Transport Museum | Rights holder: | Transport for London | Subjects: | Cityscape | Temporal: | Aug 1923 | Source: | London Transport Museum | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
