I burst into tears when you showed the Chelsea Embankment. I'm in my 60s now and I have lived there my entire life [well, so far anyway touch wood!] Beautiful song choice too. My sister calls me a soppy old bugger. Thank you so much for your lovely video.
Thank you! I particularly liked the Fulham shots, I used to leg it around there for many a plod! The Church at Fulham Palace Road was where the vicar got the chop in The Omen. Cheers
That is very great all the that so far back and Avery and every looked liked all those pictures made have a tear in my eyes as because of that song kept singing Iim shaking writing this as the song is doing to me
The lovely London skyline, before it was ruined by Canary wharf and odd shaped offices. I remember those general stores, which sold sacks of grain, paraffin and hundreds of different boxes on shelves containing screws, nails and bolts. Didn't everyone look smart in collar tie and suits.
Loved these alas not my old manor (I am a Bermondsey boy 40s 50s, 60s), so do not recognise any of these pictures? surely there must be someone out there who could identify them? before even that is lost.
3.32 shows Garratt Lane by the bend and the original Halfway House pub on the left and the old Sailor Prince pub ahead on the right on the corner of Penwith Road.

I remember Ralph McTell coming to my school as a kid and singing this song and it still makes me happy and sad
Lucky you
great pictures, great music. Bravo indeed, thanks a lot

Very much enjoy the photographs, and the wonderful music that has me wanting to returno to London.
Thanks for uploading this, wonderful images of a bygone era. Excellent. Chris.
These streets, these people, these beautiful old houses, this style of dress, in Margaret Mitchell's words now "Gone with the Wind"
I grew up in south West London - a wee bit later than most of those photos! - but I really enjoyed watching. Thank you.
Thanks for posting. Lived in Balham High Road and often drank at The Hope pub opposite Wandsworth Common🇬🇧
Absolutely brilliant, well done, took me back many years as a boy growing up in earlsfield ...
Lovely film, enjoyed every minute 👍
Good work Joanne, Great soundtrack too!
Fabulous! Some beautifully atmospheric photos of the Thames. Cough! 😁

Absolutely lovely. My patch re-visited - just a bit before my time, but still recognisable. A different time, gone forever..................
Thank you
Excellent, well done. Even though I don't know the area, it's very enjoyable and a tribute to early photographers and illustrators.
Fascinating old photographs of a bygone era.
merci💛🍀🍀
loving this, lost hard working souls, great views

I grew up at Brixton 1943-1969 when I got married and lefi. I'm now 79 and let me tell you, I wouldn't have wanted to grow up anywhere else.
The photo at 0.50 has the look of a JMW Turner painting
