This book takes a photographic tour of one of the City of Westminster's
more distinctive areas, and with a wealth of archive images set
alongside comparison photographs from the present day shows how old
neighbourhoods have evolved through the decades. Along the way are the
carefully preserved Victorian streets of Pimlico's early development and
some of the grittier byways which have yielded to war damage and great
modern housing estates. The pages are filled with pubs and local traders
together with canal and Thames side industry. The local transportation
is represented by images of vintage buses and antiquated trams alongside
the great transport interchanges which characterise northern Pimlico.
Pimlico Through Time offers a fresh look at a much loved London area and
will delight and intrigue local residents and visitors alike.
