Demolition of St. James Hall. Exterior

Bone, Muirhead, Sir, 1876-1953 · 1907

The building, already roofless, is placed obliquely across the plate. The most conspicuous feature is the first of its great round arches, still intact and open towards the right. The ruins are shut off by a paling from the street, in which are a number of waggons, cabs, and foot passengers. The palings are carried completely across the front of the ruins.
