The Monster Tea Gardens (1820) The Monster was a name which was probably a corruption of ’monastery’. The Monster was, for many years, the start of a line of horse-drawn buses known as the Monster buses. St Georges Row, where it stood, was largely obliterated in a Luftwaffe raid on 17 April 1941. It became known to the people who lived through it as, simply, ’The Wednesday’. 148 people were killed that night in Pimlico and 564 injured. The Monster Tavern was destroyed.

Rush Hour, Victoria Station (1960) Bob Collins’s wonderfully dynamic, impressionistic image. It’s somehow reassuring to know that overcrowding in London is the same as it ever was

Newsagent stand, Victoria (1896) The ’Illustrated London News’ at the upper right mentions an upcoming "Royal Visit To Blenheim" - a visit that occurred on 28 November 1896. This helps us date this photo quite precisely.

Newsstand on the District (line/Railway) at Victoria station, London on 23 November 1896. Our nineteenth century ancestors certainly lived in a world designed for left-brained folk. There seems to be an overload of writing on just about every surface - even the wall behind the stall. If you were better with images, it was perhaps not the world for you. Maybe the reverse is true now
