EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historic George IV pub in Walworth, London, as it once stood before its closure and demolition in February 2012. The main side of the print showcases the corner of the pub, its red brick facade adorned with ornate detailing and the iconic "George IV" sign hanging proudly above the entrance. The pub, a beloved local watering hole, was a testament to the rich history of Walworth and the Hoare & Company Limited, which had managed it for many years. The back of the print reveals the pub's trading record, detailing its operation from 1934 to 1961 at the George IV, Walworth, London SE17 2SB. The image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era when the pub was a vibrant hub of community life. Despite its historical significance, the George IV pub was unfortunately closed and demolished, making way for new development. Today, King George IV Court new build flats now occupy the site, with a chicken and kebab takeaway restaurant on the ground floor. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the pub's storied past and the ever-changing landscape of Walworth and London as a whole.
