Description | A view from inside the wreckage of Elmers End garage, looking across the debris from burnt-out buses, some of the components of which are recognisable. Metalwork from the roof is exposed and, in the background, has collapsed and is hanging down to floor level. During an air raid the previous night, a V1 flying bomb had hit the main entrance of the garage and a fire had ensued. |
