A 1960s colour photo looking south down Whitehall toward the Houses of Parliament during the latter half of the 20th century. In the centre of the frame, a grey Triumph Courier van with the registration 704 XPA is seen driving away from the camera, while a green Austin A35 van (registration 755 LYD) is parked at the kerb on the left. The street is flanked by grand Portland stone government buildings, including the Treasury on the left, with pedestrians in stylish mid-sixties attire walking along the wide pavements. The distant silhouette of the Victoria Tower and the Cenotaph war memorial anchor the perspective, while the equestrian statue of the Duke of Cambridge stands prominently in the middle of the road. To the right, the historic facade of the Old Admiralty Building is visible, capturing the dignified and busy atmosphere of London’s political heart in 1965.
