Borough High Street and Borough Market Junction, London Bridge 1970
Borough High Street and Borough Market Junction, London Bridge 1970
View SW from the temporary footbridge off Tooley Street during widening of London Bridge, which is off to the right. Southwark Cathedral entrance is on the right; the railway bridge carries the main lines from Charing Cross and Cannon Street into London Bridge station, joining at Borough Market Junction just west of the signal-box seen here; the double-line over the bridge was a severe bottle-neck, which only in the last year or two has been widened, together with major rebuilding and enlarging of London Bridge main station, off to the left. Borough Road is a major and busy main road (A3) coming from Elephant & Castle and the south.
