EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the mid-1850s, offers a glimpse into the bustling streets of London's Elephant and Castle area, as seen from Walworth Road. The Elephant & Castle public house, a historic landmark, stands proudly in the background with its distinctive sign featuring an elephant and castle. The scene is filled with the sights and sounds of the era, as horse-drawn transportation and foot traffic converge. A horse bus, pulled by a team of powerful horses, is shown making its way down the cobblestone road. The horse bus, a popular mode of transportation in the 19th century, was an early form of public transport that offered a more affordable alternative to hiring a private carriage. Next to it, a hansom cab, a two-wheeled, horse-drawn carriage, is parked, ready for its next fare. The elegant design of the hansom cab, with its distinctive hood and high wheels, is on full display. A horse-drawn wagon, loaded with various goods, is making its way through the crowd, while a dog cart, pulled by a single horse, is parked nearby. Pedestrians, dressed in the fashion of the time, can be seen walking along the sidewalks, some deep in conversation, others engrossed in their tasks. The horse bus, cab, wagon, and cart, along with the pedestrians, add to the lively atmosphere of this bustling London street scene. This photograph, from the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of London and the transportation methods of the mid-19th century. It is a reminder of a time when horses and horse-drawn vehicles were the primary means of transportation, and the Elephant & Castle public house was a familiar landmark in the area.
