Temple Bar archway, at the Stand end of Fleet Street, London, 1877 (1951)
Temple Bar archway, at the Stand end of Fleet Street, London, 1877 (1951). The Temple Bar stood at the junction of Fleet Street and The Strand and marked the western boundary of the City of London. The gate was rebuilt by Sir Christopher Wren in the 1670s. It was moved in 1878 in the interest of road widening in and re-erected two years later as the gate to Theobalds Park, the home of the brewer Henry Meux in Cheshunt, Hertfordshire. In 2004 it was brought back to London as part of the Paternoster Square redevelopment.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of London in 1877. Standing proudly at the junction of Fleet Street and The Strand, we see the magnificent Temple Bar archway, a symbol of both history and progress. Originally built by the renowned architect Sir Christopher Wren in the 1670s, this architectural masterpiece marked the western boundary of the City of London. However, as time went on and road widening became necessary, it was relocated to Cheshunt, Hertfordshire in 1878. In this image captured in 1951, we witness a momentous occasion when Temple Bar returned to its rightful place in London. As part of the Paternoster Square redevelopment project initiated in 2004, this iconic gate found its way back home. The grandeur and elegance emanating from this photograph transport us to an era where centuries-old buildings stood tall amidst modernization efforts. It serves as a reminder that even as cities evolve and change over time, their historical landmarks continue to hold immense value. Thanks to unknown creator's keen eye for detail and composition combined with Sir Christopher Wren's architectural genius, we are left with an enduring visual testament to London's rich heritage. This print not only captures a specific moment but also encapsulates centuries worth of stories within its monochrome frame.
