EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous occasion in London's history - the opening of the new Rotherhithe Tunnel on 12th June 1908. Crowds of eager spectators gathered to witness the Prince and Princess of Wales, later known as George V and Mary of Teck, inaugurate this latest addition to the city's transportation infrastructure.
The image showcases the excitement and anticipation felt by all present as the royal couple unlocked the gates to officially open the tunnel, which provided a vital link between Rotherhithe and Stepney. The Thames River flows peacefully in the background, serving as a picturesque backdrop to this significant event.
The presence of royalty at such an important ceremony added an air of grandeur and prestige to the occasion. It was a moment that would be remembered for years to come by those who were fortunate enough to witness it firsthand.
As we look back on this historic day through this remarkable photo print, we are reminded of how far London has come in terms of its transportation network. The Rotherhithe Tunnel stands as a testament to innovation and progress, thanks in part to the efforts of those who worked tirelessly to bring it into existence.
