This authentic 1960s colour photograph captures the industrious atmosphere at the northern end of London Bridge during 1960. The image showcases a heavy flow of commercial transport, led by a large green lorry for “A. Saxby & Sons Ltd Road Transport Contractors,” followed by a white Austin Cambridge and several grey and red Austin delivery trucks. To the left, the neoclassical stone facade of Adelaide House stands prominently, while the distance reveals the grand white architecture of the City’s financial district, including the “Ridgways Tea” building. Pedestrians in typical early-sixties attire, including men in heavy wool overcoats, walk along the wide pavement or lean against the bridge railings to watch the river. The scene is punctuated by traditional curved street lamps and the hazy, grey-blue sky characteristic of the era’s urban landscape. This digital download is a compelling record of London’s post-war commercial life and architectural heritage, perfect to print for yourself as a piece of documentary vintage wall art.
