Served by Southdown

In 2020, Capital Transportarranged the scanning of over 500 Southdown bus negatives of Peter Mitchelltaken in the 1950s and 1960s. The best of these form the bulk of the images inthis beautiful volume produced for Heathfield Publishing. Combined with some ofEric Surfleet's stunning images from the collection of the SouthdownEnthusiasts Club and detailed captions from Stewart J Brown and Chris Warren,this book evokes a time when Southdown was probably at its peak - both in termsof its buses and its services. The book follows a geographical pattern fromwest to east and shows the large and varied area that was Served bySouthdown.
