The Flower Market

This press image depicts the loud bustle of the flower market in Covent Garden. Porters and sellers can be seen alongside a gardener buying potted plants, a society woman, and servants buying cut flowers for their household. The Flower Market continued in Covent Garden until 1974, when it relocated to Vauxhall.
