EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the facade of the Grapes Public House, located in the vibrant and historic area of Southwark, London. Established in 1896, the pub was rebuilt in time for Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee celebration, making it a cherished piece of local history. The Grapes, with its distinctive red brick and ornate detailing, once stood proudly at 3-5 New Globe Walk, SE1 1LB. The pub, a beloved watering hole for both locals and visitors, was a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Southwark. Its name, like many pubs, is steeped in intrigue and speculation, with some believing it was named after the grapes that once grew in the area, while others suggest it was a nod to the nearby Globe Theatre and its connection to Shakespearean times. Alas, as of July 2018, the Grapes Public House, a cherished piece of Southwark's history, was no more. Demolished, it now exists only in the memories of those who frequented it and in the pages of history. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of a bygone era, a time when the pub was a cornerstone of the community, a place where stories were shared, friendships forged, and laughter echoed through the streets of Southwark. This photograph, taken by an unknown photographer, is a testament to the enduring allure of the pub and the stories it holds. It is a snapshot of a moment in time, a moment that, like the Grapes Public House, has now passed, but not been forgotten.
