Back alley in Whitechapel, London. One of my favourite back alleys, in fact. Off the busy main street here, you walk through an archway and seemingly into another world and another time, of cobbled streets and Victorian buildings.

This sewage pumping station in London is a sight to behold. 🤩
Opened #OnThisDay in 1865 by Joseph Bazalgette, Crossness Pumping Station is a masterpiece of Victorian engineering.
It was part of Bazalgette’s sewage system, which contributed to eradicating cholera in the city.

"“ ...books are the voices of the dead. They are a main instrument in communion with the vast human procession of the other world. They are the allies of the thought of men... In a room well filled with them, no one has felt or can feel solitary.” - William Ewart Gladstone
ALT A picture of a section of the Theology Room. There is a cupboard stocked with books, on which a statue of William Ewart Gladstone sits. It's placed between two pillars and two sets of bookshelves.
