EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the history of Bromley, Kent. Taken on 19th May 1936, it showcases the widening of High Street, a crucial step towards alleviating the congestion caused by coastal traffic throughout the day. In this snapshot from between the wars, we see a bustling town scene filled with people going about their daily lives. A man stands near his car, showcasing one of the many automobiles that were becoming increasingly common during this era. The London Borough of Bromley comes to life as pedestrians stroll along the newly widened pavement, passing by shops and indulging in some retail therapy. The presence of a double-decker bus adds an authentic touch to this historic image. It serves as a reminder of how public transportation played an essential role in connecting communities during this time period. Meanwhile, workmen can be seen diligently constructing roads nearby using various trucks and vans. Notably, women are also present in this photograph - symbolizing their growing participation in society beyond traditional roles. Their inclusion highlights both their contribution to road construction efforts and their increasing independence during these changing times. Overall, this evocative image offers us a glimpse into everyday life in Bromley during the 1930s while documenting progress made towards improving infrastructure for its residents' convenience and comfort.
