EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the architectural beauty and historical significance of this coaching inn. The photograph, taken by Alfred & John Bool as part of the Society for Photographing Relics of Old London's series, transports us back to a bygone era. The image reveals a dilapidated yet enchanting facade that tells tales of restoration and urban life in the 17th century. The wooden structure stands proudly amidst its rundown surroundings, with galleries overlooking a charming courtyard. A balustrade adds an elegant touch to this ramshackle scene. This guest house-turned-hotel witnessed centuries of history before meeting its demise in 1878 when it was demolished. Its existence was documented by the Society for Photographing Relics of Old London to preserve these endangered buildings from being lost forever. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of the intricate architecture that once graced our city streets. The Victorian charm is evident in every detail captured through the lens - from the tumbledown appearance to the weathered walls that have stood strong for generations. "The Oxford Arms, Warwick Lane" serves as both a testament to our rich heritage and a reminder that even grand structures can succumb to time's relentless march. This image invites us to reflect on how our cities evolve over time while cherishing their pasts.
