The railway works at Blackfriars and opening towards Ludgate Hill, viewed from the temporary bridge, [London], 1864. View ...overlooking, on its eastern side, the permanent railway-bridge which the London, Chatham, and Dover Company are erecting, to bring their line south of the Thames - now open to the Elephant and Castle - into connection with its projected City terminus at Ludgate-hill...a great many houses have been cleared away...The facade and majestic dome of St. Pauls were never seen to better advantage than from this new point of observation, since the removal of some of the intervening houses which concealed the portico when the spectator was upon old Blackfriars Bridge. The spire of St. Martins, Ludgate, and the small square tower of St. Benets, which was built by Wren, are included in this View...To the right hand we see the bank of the river just above Purfleet Wharf. This View exhibits some features of old and new London in curious juxtaposition, and it is an illustration of the progress of one of the greatest -works of railway construction in this City. From "Illustrated London News", 1864.
