Work in progress on The Skylon, a vertical feature of The Festival of Britain

Work in progress on The Skylon, a vertical feature of The Festival of Britain. The giant cigar shaped structure is supported by three pylons and now reaches 121 ft from the ground. When it is completed it will go up 300 ft from the ground. Pictured are the steel erectors on their giddy perch awaiting another section which will complete the third section of 16 varying in length. 26th February 1951
