Portion used |
Entire photograph other than insignificant cropping at the margins; this is necessary to illustrate the buildings described in the article. |
Low resolution? |
666x276px scan, substantially lower quality than the original. Further reduction would result in the loss of necessary detail. |
Purpose of use |
To illustrate the appearance of Brill railway station during the short period (1933-1935) in which it was operated as a part of the London Underground. |
Replaceable? |
This station closed in 1935 and all buildings associated with it have since been demolished. To the best of my knowledge, no public domain photographs of this station during its time as a tube station (1933-35) exist. This photograph is possibly Crown Copyright and thus in the public domain, but the status of images owned by the London Passenger Transport Board—in this period publicly owned but not formally a government agency—is unclear. |
