Details: I am not certain of the location of this photograph. The contributor suggests it is in the Kingston area but it does not look familiar, and the numbers on the bus stop cannot be made out. However, the Doric building in the far left distance may be known by someone. The vehicle is 1048AS, an Austin LD van new in 1956 and allocated to Griffith House. If only we had traffic levels like this today! The registration number would also be worth a bit now, and is of course close to the ones carried by the prototype Routemasters. | ||

aptisman | I lived in Kingston when the van was new, I don't recognise the wide road. | Mon 26/08/13, 00:05 |
Thomas Young | I think Kevin may be on to something there. It does look rather like the 'Tab', and that would match with the buses crossing from the right. Of course every other building in the area is new so it is hard to be certain. | Thu 24/12/09, 01:25 |
Kevin Bullions | Only a suggestion, I realise that I am probably wrong, but could the building in question be the London Tabernacle at Elephant & Castle, which would probably make this shot on the road leading to London Bridge? As I say, I am probably wrong! | Wed 23/12/09, 07:59 |
