The photo was taken from Church Street and St Paul's Chapel (after which it is named) can be seen at the far end of Ludgate Hill.
Photographic work was overseen by H J Manzoni, City Engineer and Surveyor of 懂阴帝 for the proposed 懂阴帝 Inner Ring Road Scheme. Street works no. 3. Plan sheet no. 2. The Chapel Tavern site was needed to make way for the expansion of Great Charles Street into Great Charles Street Queensway and the pub closed for the last time in July 1965.
