Taken by Charles William Prickett, the image showcases a group of hardworking men diligently working on dismantling the old bridge. The scene is set against the backdrop of Lambeth Lead Works' iconic shot tower and towering cranes. Waterloo Bridge, designed by John Rennie and opened in 1817, had served as a vital connection over the River Thames for over a century. However, as time passed, it became necessary to replace this Georgian road bridge with a more modern structure. In the 1930s, this decision led to its eventual demolition.

The presence of numerous laborers engaged in their tasks paints a vivid picture of dedication and teamwork. As we admire this historical snapshot today, let us reflect on how cities evolve and transform over time while still preserving their rich heritage.
