EDITORS COMMENTS
This fascinating print captures a piece of history from Southeast London - a tollgate ticket for St James Gate, used on the Bermondsey, Rotherhithe and Deptford Roads. Dating back to the mid-19th century, this ticket likely became obsolete in 1864 when many toll gates were abolished.
The image provides a glimpse into the past when toll gates were common sights along roads and streets, collecting fees from travelers for using certain routes. The intricate design of the ticket reflects the attention to detail that was put into these small but important pieces of transportation infrastructure.
The Tollgate Ticket is a reminder of how much has changed in terms of transportation and road systems since the 1860s. It serves as a tangible link to an era when turnpikes and tolls played a significant role in funding road maintenance and development.
As we look at this historical artifact, we are transported back in time to an age where travel was slower-paced and more regulated. The Tollgate Ticket is not just a piece of paper; it represents a bygone era that has shaped the way we navigate our world today.
Mary Evans Picture Library has preserved this unique piece of history through their collection, allowing us to appreciate and learn from our past experiences with transportation systems in Southeast London.
