Gatwick Beehive and Station

The Beehive from the western side showing the tracks in the apron on which the covered passenger gangways ran. There was also a subway from the railway station so passengers had a covered journey from Victoria all the way to Paris. The modern concept of a purpose designed airport with proper passenger management organised. The genius concept of Morris Jackaman with architects Hoar, Marlow and Lovett. Opened in 1936.
