View of Tanswell Street
Description
View of Tanswell Street, Waterloo, looking north-west to Lower Marsh from the corner with Oakley Street. On the right is a two-storey terrace with a garage and NSEC-A-TUS sign above the doors, and ESS & ESS on the doors. A horse and delivery cart stand outside with the driver who is holding a large basket. Further along the terrace two small children are sitting in a cart. On the left street corner by a three-storey building a woman and two children look at the camera. From the passage, a two-storey terrace in Roberts Place is on the left. Further on the left is a four-storey commercial building with two cars parked in front. The first floor of a building on Lower Marsh carries an advertisement for Andrews Liver Salts. Behind this is the top of the roof of the main Waterloo Station, opened in 1848 by the London and South Western Railway. Rebuilding of the station commenced in 1909 but was not completed until 1922. This area was heavily bombed during World War II, and only a short part of Tanswell Street remains, leading from Lower Marsh. Part of the street is now the playground of the Ark Academy School.
