EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, taken circa 1840, depicts an Oxford Street bus making its way towards the Bank of England, with the historic St Mary-le-Bow church standing proudly in the background. The scene unfolds on Cheapside, a bustling commercial district in the heart of London, England. The double-decker bus, an engineering marvel of its time, is filled with passengers, all dressed in the fashion of the era, eagerly anticipating their destination. The horse-drawn vehicle, adorned with ornate decorations and intricate designs, epitomizes the grandeur and sophistication of Victorian London. St Mary-le-Bow church, a cherished landmark of the city, looms majestically behind the bus. Its iconic bow-shaped bell tower and Gothic Revival architecture are a stark contrast to the modern means of transportation. The church, which dates back to the 11th century, has long been a symbol of London's rich history and cultural heritage. The bustling streets of Cheapside, filled with shops, vendors, and the sounds of commerce, add to the vibrant atmosphere of the scene. The image offers a glimpse into the past, providing a fascinating look at London's transportation history and the interplay between tradition and innovation during the Victorian era.
