Description: | This photographic postcard gives an aerial view of Chiswick Works. It was taken shortly after the works opened in 1921.
The main building was sub-divided into different areas for different jobs, such as overhauling the body and chassis, and new body construction. The smaller, single-storey building with the clock tower was the staff canteen, which could seat 1,300 people.
All London General Omnibus Company overhaul and construction took place at Chiswick Works. The site covered 32 acres. Chiswick High Road, in the foreground, was the south boundary. | Format: | image/jpeg | Publisher: | London Transport Museum | Rights holder: | Copyright unknown - Collection of London's Transport Museum | Subjects: | Transport | Temporal: | 1921-1925 | Source: | London Transport Museum | Creator: | Publisher : Surrey Flying Services | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
