Title
Shops in Tottenham Court Road
Description
A view of the front elevations of the stores of James Shoolbred & Co and TW Thompson in Tottenham Court Road, Bloomsbury, and between them the junction with University Street. Both shops have elaborate facades and several storeys of further space above the ground floor. The Shoolbred store at 151-162 Tottenham Court Road is surrounded by a hoarding and a large sign on a first floor balcony reads: "Demolition and excavation". Advertisements on the hoarding offer Regie Francaise cigarettes, Bryant & May matches, Guinness stout and Haig whisky. A sign in the Thompson window reads "Xmas Gifts". A car with registration number AXW322 is travelling north along Tottenham Court Road. Several cars are parked in the road including one with registration number ALP70 as well as two bicycles. Neither of the buildings exists and other buildings with retail premises on the ground floor and offices above occupy the site. The cobbled turning on the right is Midford Place.
