Description:    The photograph depicts a street scene in West Street, Durban.  There are a number of horsedrawn trams, including a double-decker tram.  There are also a few horsedrawn carts and a carriage.  The Durban Town Hall (which is now the Durban Post Office) is in the background. 

Some of the shop signs on the buildings: "Cowey Son & Co / Outfitters / [D]rapers, Boot & Shoe Merchants" ; "Singers Sewing Machines"; "H.M. [B]aker & Co".  The tram in the foreground has a sign at the front which possibly reads "Durban Berea" and a sign at the back that reads "[Toll] Gate".
