Jamaica Road, North Bermondsey, London (circa 1930s): A Glimpse into the Past This evocative photograph captures the bustling scene of Jamaica Road in North Bermondsey, London during the 1930s. The cobblestone street, lined with shops and dairies, exudes a sense of community and vibrancy. At the corner of the street, a dairy shop with the sign "United Dairies" stands proudly, displaying fresh milk, butter, and eggs in its windows. Across the street, the "Miller's Sweetland" shop entices passersby with its colorful display of sweets and confectionery. The tramlines running down the center of the road add to the hustle and bustle of the scene, as trams transport people to and from various destinations. The United Dairies company, founded in 1923, was a significant player in the British dairy industry during the 1930s. Its shops, like the one in this photograph, were a common sight on the streets of London. The company's slogan, "Delivering Happiness," reflected the importance of fresh milk and dairy products in the daily lives of Londoners. Miller's Sweetland, on the other hand, was a popular sweet shop chain that offered a wide range of sweets and confectionery. The shop's name, "Sweetland," suggests a land of sweet delights and indulgence. This photograph provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when Jamaica Road in North Bermondsey was a bustling hub of activity, with shops like the dairy and sweet shop playing an essential role in the daily lives of Londoners.
