Willesden Green Underground Station, London, 1906: A Glimpse into the Edwardian Era This photograph, taken in 1906, presents a view of Willesden Green Underground Station in London during the Edwardian era. The image showcases the unique blend of modern transportation infrastructure and traditional street scene, with the Metropolitan Line's Willesden Green Station as its focal point. The station, adorned with mock Tudor-style architecture, stands proudly at the end of the street, its tall arches and intricate brickwork creating a striking contrast against the clear blue sky. Sunblinds hang from the windows, shielding the interior from the sunlight, while the pavement outside is bustling with activity. People can be seen going about their daily business, some stopping to chat or browse the various shops lining the street. A newsboy calls out to potential customers, holding up a stack of newspapers. Shops selling a variety of goods, from groceries to haberdashery, display their wares on the pavement, adding to the vibrant atmosphere. The Metropolitan Line's distinctive red and cream livery is evident in the station's signage and the train in the background, hinting at the efficient and reliable transportation system that connected London's diverse neighborhoods. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the Underground was a relatively new innovation and the streets of London were filled with the sights, sounds, and energy of everyday life.
