More about this scene

Blackfriars Bridge was completed in 1869, but it was widened to its present width by extending the west side in 1910. The parallel railway bridge was built in 1862-64 and demolished in 1985, leaving only the piers. The present downstream railway bridge was built in the 1880s. We can see the first Blackfriars Station on the south side.
