Bankers

 A view towards Fleet Street from the Strand using Victorian style formats of sepia colour and an oval frame. Picture taken February 2012 early evening.

If we carry on walking down the Strand away from Charing Cross station, we soon see, on the north side of the street, the imposing sight of Coutts bank:

Dickens would probably be pleased to see that his old bank is still on the Strand, although it used to be on the other side of the street:
