EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling nightlife of Harlesden, a vibrant district in the London Borough of Brent. The scene is set at a bus stop near Harlesden Station, where the iconic Underground sign looms large against the darkened sky. The No. 220 bus, a common sight on these streets, is a reminder of the area's excellent transport connections. The lamp post casts an orange glow on the pavement, illuminating the faces of people waiting at the bus stop, deep in conversation or lost in thought. The sound of passing cars can be heard in the background, adding to the urban symphony of the scene. To the south of Harlesden Station, the North Acton power station stands tall and imposing, its smokestacks casting long shadows over the streets below. The power station, a relic of a bygone era, adds to the unique character of Harlesden and serves as a reminder of the area's industrial past. This photograph, taken by renowned British photographer John Gay in 1965, offers a glimpse into the past of this diverse and dynamic London community. The image captures the essence of urban life, with its blend of transport, people, and industry, and serves as a testament to the enduring spirit of Harlesden.
