Leigh Road Gas Holder / Print
London, UK, 2020
by Francesco Russo
The series Ruin or Rust documents the disappearing gas holders of London and investigates the role of these industrial icons of the Victorian era. With time they became the backdrop of everyday life and stand out elements in the urban landscape.
Located in East London in the East Ham area, the beautiful structure of Leigh Road Gas Holder stands still and proud in the middle of an inaccessible meadow.
