EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the charm of an old tavern nestled on the riverside at Limehouse. The image, taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, exudes a sense of history and nostalgia. The tavern stands proudly against the backdrop of the river Thames, its weathered exterior telling tales of countless patrons who have sought refuge within its walls. The scene evokes a bygone era when pubs were not just places to drink but also social hubs where stories were shared and friendships forged. As low tide reveals the riverbank, we catch a glimpse of boats gently bobbing in the water, adding to the picturesque atmosphere. This historic inn is situated in London's East End, known for its rich cultural heritage. Its presence speaks volumes about England's pub culture and serves as a reminder of Limehouse's significance as a bustling riverside community. The photograph was originally featured as an illustration for "Wonderful London" by St John Adcock in Fleetway around 1930. It has been beautifully gravure-printed and is now part of a private collection. As we gaze upon this striking image, we are transported back to a time when life moved at a slower pace along these shores. It serves as both an homage to British history and an invitation to imagine ourselves stepping into that old tavern on the riverside at Limehouse.
