View east, with St Thomas' Hospital behind camera. This was before major alterations here in the 1960s: expansion of St Thomas's Hospital, diversion of Lambeth Palace Road to bend eastward and abolition of the tramlines; also of the Mitre pub and of the phone-boxes. York Road no longer ends here, by the Mitre, but some way back and on the north side of Westminster Bridge Road.
