London Street Scenes C. 1920s

Take in the traffic at 1920s St. Paul’s, where the London General Omnibus is king.

A section from an unknown motor car sales film illustrates London traffic scenes at St Paul's Cathedral, viewed from Ludgate Circus, with buses and horse-drawn vehicle passing along the street. Open-top buses pass market stalls in the rain as passengers use their umbrellas on the top deck. We also enjoy a travelling shot from the top of a bus as it passes, in the early morning, into Oxford Circus and Regent Street.
