EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Historic England Archive transports us back in time to the bustling streets of Piccadilly Circus in Edwardian London. Taken from an elevated viewpoint, we are treated to a panoramic view of this iconic cityscape. In the foreground, a vibrant mix of motor cars, omnibuses, and horse-drawn carriages fill the busy streets. The hustle and bustle of daily life is palpable as people go about their business amidst the flurry of activity. It's fascinating to see how transportation has evolved over the years, with each mode coexisting harmoniously on these historic roads. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the magnificent London Pavilion standing proudly at one end of Piccadilly Circus. Its grand architecture commands attention against a backdrop of other elegant buildings that line this famous intersection. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, it serves as a reminder not only of our rich history but also how cities constantly evolve and adapt. This photograph captures a moment when tradition meets progress - where horse-drawn carriages share space with early automobiles and public transportation. Thanks to Historic England Archive's meticulous preservation efforts, we can immerse ourselves in this scene from over a century ago. It allows us to appreciate both the timeless beauty and ever-changing nature of one of London's most iconic landmarks – Piccadilly Circus.
