This 1973 photograph looks along Tower Bridge with one of the great Gothic towers rising beneath the high-level walkways and a red Daimler Fleetline bus crossing the roadway below. The view is especially striking for the contrast between the richly detailed Victorian stonework of the bridge and the large modern office block in the background, showing how quickly the riverside skyline was changing in the early 1970s. A couple of pedestrians stand beside the bridge parapet as the bus heads across, adding a sense of ordinary daily movement to one of London’s most recognisable landmarks. More than just a dramatic architectural study, the image captures Tower Bridge in 1973 as part of the working city, with public transport, office development and historic engineering all meeting in a single frame.
