EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the charm and character of the Railway Tavern in Old Ford, London, as it looked in the 1930s. The image, taken in the thirties, shows the corner of this historic pub with its distinctive red brick facade and ornate signage. The name "Railway Tavern" is proudly displayed, a nod to the area's rich transport history. The Railway Tavern, located at 2 LU Old Ford Road, London E3, was a beloved local institution for over six decades. The pub, which was owned by Hoare and Company Limited, had a long and storied history, as evidenced by the trading records dated 1934 and 1961 that are included on the reverse of this print. Despite its popularity, the Railway Tavern was eventually closed and converted into flats in the year 2000. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the pub was a hub of community life in Old Ford. The 1939 date stamped on the image adds an extra layer of historical significance, reminding us of the many stories and memories that were created within its walls over the years. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the rich history and character of Old Ford's pubs and the role they play in shaping the fabric of London's communities. Whether you're a local resident or simply someone who appreciates the history of public houses, this image is sure to capture your imagination and transport you back in time.
