EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of community life in London's Dickens Estate back in 1921. Taken by an English photographer, this image showcases a group portrait of children and adults gathered in an alleyway known as Oliver Twist Court. The estate, located in Bermondsey within the Metropolitan Borough of Southwark, was a council housing development that provided homes for working-class families. In this snapshot, we see a mix of female and male teenagers alongside younger children, all residing within the estate. The architecture of the tenements forms the backdrop to their lives, with rows of houses lining the alleyway. Despite their modest surroundings, there is a sense of camaraderie among these neighbors as they gather together. The photo reflects both society and childhood during that era - capturing moments from everyday life on this tight-knit estate. It offers us a glimpse into the social fabric and resilience of working-class communities in 1920s Britain. Preserved by London Metropolitan Archives, City of London, this print serves as a historical document showcasing public services aimed at providing affordable housing to those who needed it most. As we observe these young friends posing for posterity amidst their humble surroundings, we are reminded that even amidst challenging circumstances, friendship and community endure.
