Title
Buildings in Ossulston Street
Description
View of buildings in Ossulston Street to the right and Hampden Street, Somers Town. At the corner is the shop of the Electric Bakery on the ground floor of 164 Ossulston Street, advertising Hovis bread. A sign above says: "You may telephone from here." All the Ossulston Street houses have shops on the ground floor, with J. Collins at number 162.The houses have four storeys with accommodation above the shops. To the left, Hampden Street houses have three storeys plus basement. Outside the corner shop is a man with a six-foot scale pole, probably working with the photographer. Also outside, a coal merchant's horse-drawn cart is being unloaded, with some coal on the cart in sacks and some on the pavement with a shovel on top of the pile. None of the buildings still exist thanks to widespread redevelopment. Hampden Street has become part of Polygon Road. Several pedestrians can be seen at the bottom left and right corners.
