It had snowed all the previous day and this was the view in Oakley Square Gardens near Mornington Crescent Tube station the following afternoon. The red brick building beyond is the Working Men's College. Founded in 1854 at Red Lion Square, it moved to Great Ormond Street in 1857 and to a new building here in Crowndale Road in 1905.
