Kearley & Tonge original order/receipt 1902

[Christian]

Mitre square is a midget of a thing. You would be lucky to get two carts in there let alone the circus depicted. It is a case of architects literally bigging up the K&T domain. It reminds me of the plans for my neighbour's granny flat, showing two 4x4 vehicles parked off street: a big plus in Wandsworth. On completion, 'granny' had great difficulty parking her old style mini cooper, and then only with the gates left open.

Indeed definitely some well a lot of artistic license in that drawing-sketch of Mitre Square!!!!

[Christian]

Hope this is okay with Christian...

I've created a hi-def image of this. I posted it as a blog post because when I upload large images to Casebook the resolution is reduced and the quality gets mangled!

Here's the Hi-Def of Christan's receipt:

Thanks Richard,
I love how busy with traffic Mitre Square looks in the pic, and often wonder how many of those or other carts were parked there overnight.
