Commuters pass the burnt out shell of the Central Telegraph Office on the corner of Newgate Street and St Martins Le Grand, in the shadow of St Pauls Cathedral. The building, through which more than a quarter of the total telegraph traffic of Britain passed, was totally destroyed by fire on the night of 29th - 30th December, 1940 following heavy intensive bombing by the German Luftwaffe over East London in what came to be known as the Second Great Fire of London.
Circa January 1941
