London in the 1960s
Vintage colour photos of London from the 1960s, capturing the capital during a decade of cultural change, redevelopment, and growing modernity. Taken on colour film, these images document London’s streets, buildings, and everyday life as the city moved beyond post-war recovery and into a new social and architectural era.
This collection includes views of central London and surrounding districts, showing streetscapes, shops, offices, housing, transport, signage, and public spaces as they appeared in the 1960s. From major thoroughfares to ordinary neighbourhood scenes, the photographs preserve a detailed visual record of London at a time of shifting lifestyles, changing fashions, and expanding urban infrastructure.
All images are available as high-resolution, royalty-free digital downloads suitable for editorial, commercial, or personal use.
