A view of Marylebone Road, Marylebone, looking west from the junction of Park Square East and Marylebone Road. In the foreground, a traffic island with rubble and lantern, indicating roadworks. Straight ahead, the turn into Park Crescent, built 1812 by John Nash as part of his Regent's Park development. Park Crescent is now Grade II listed, listing number 1206742. At the time of the photograph, Park Crescent Gardens was enclosed by wooden fencing, its cast-iron railings having been removed during World War II. As part of Regent's Park, Park Crescent Gardens is now on the Register of Historic Parks and Gardens of Special Historic Interest in England; Grade I listed, listing number 1000246. In the corner, East Lodge, now Grade II listed, listing number 1225957, a single-storey, four-square Greek Doric pavilion with a window and doorway to each face, one of several identical lodges built to Nash's scheme. On the corner of Park Crescent and Marylebone Road is a two-way traffic light with a sign, 'No right turn'. Further along a sign for J. Murphy, a local construction company, and a lorry with open trailer and building materials. Three temporary huts are within the gardens, one with a sign, 'Lacy'. Two women are walking on the pavement, both with hats and handbags.
