Description: Along the rusticated ground floor of a large stone building, sandbags are piled in sloping walls up to the level of the windows; small saloon cars stand at the kerb, a man leans on his bicycle, and people gather at a corner under the overhead wires. The source reports sandbagging in the streets of London in the September crisis, when trenches were dug in the parks and gas masks issued.
