View from the bridge carrying the road over the throat of Paddington Station. The National Carriers warehouse was sold off not long after this photo was taken and was available to let. It was subsequently demolished as Bishopsbridge road was widened and the area around the Paddington Basin was redeveloped. In the distance the road drops steeply down to a large roundabout on the Harrow Road, underneath the A40 Westway which is just visible behind the pillar box. The sign next to the metallic blue car indicates the entrance to Paddington station via the upper goods yard, normally used by cabbies.
