The Website for People Who Love London
A look at the Piccadilly Circus of the Swinging Sixties! A lot of what is shown here no longer exists as it was soon “modernized” to meet the demands of a changing world. Also a look underground Piccadilly to see sights that few people have ever seen. Very cool video!
Londontopia is simply the website for people who love London. It was founded by Jonathan & Jackie Thomas from Anglotopia.net as a place to post articles solely focused on London and its environs. Keep up with all the latest London news at Londontopia! This site is geared towards people who love to visit London and our primary audience is North American but everyone is welcome!
I hoped to see my younger self, as I lived in Leicester Sq from 1960 to 63, but the video would not play
I liked the horse-drawn flower wagon 🙂
We the modernisation mentioned never took place, and it remains much the same as it has for 100 years. Some fascinating pictures here

It’s a bit of a shame how informal we dress now.
I wish it was then!
