A Lambeth-born hero of World War I has been honoured with a commemorative paving stone to mark the centenary of the brave acts that led to him being awarded the Victoria Cross.
Passengers on bus routes 4 and 188 had the opportunity to ride on a vintage Routemaster bus on Friday as part of a Transport for London initiative to raise funds for the Royal British Legion poppy appeal.
