Prince of wales road

1904

An elegant Edwardian vista of Prince of Wales Road, flanking the leafy expanse of Battersea Park. The uniform terraces, with their proud chimneys and wrought-iron balconies, stand as a testament to London's architectural refinement at the dawn of the 20th century.

A solitary horse-drawn carriage rumbles gently down the quiet avenue, while gas lamps still line the pavement—soon to be relics in a rapidly modernising world. This postcard captures a moment of calm before the great upheavals of the coming decades.

🕰 A charming glimpse into the daily dignity of Edwardian suburbia.
