Stockwell Garage is a large bus garage in Stockwell, in the London Borough of Lambeth, which opened in April 1952.[1] At the time of construction it was Europe's largest unsupported roof span. The garage provides 73,350 sq ft (6,814 m2) of unobstructed parking space and could originally house 200 buses, required at a time when the last trams were being replaced by buses.[2]
