1. Title: A Medieval Tradition in Modern Times: The Eye Wash Station in a London Pub, Early 1930s This photograph, hailing from the early 1930s, presents an intriguing blend of history and modernity. The scene unfolds in the dimly lit, cozy confines of a traditional London pub, where an unexpected medical amenity awaits the patrons - an eye wash station, built over a well with distinctly medieval properties. The eye wash station, a relic of the past, stands as a testament to the pub's rich history and the unique conditions of its licence. The well, with its ancient, weathered stones, seems to defy time, nestled amidst the modern bar setup. The station, though seemingly out of place in the contemporary pub setting, was a necessary addition, reflecting the pub's dedication to the wellbeing of its patrons. The image evokes a sense of curiosity and intrigue, as one ponders the origins of this unusual feature. How did this tradition come about? Was it a long-standing custom, passed down through generations, or a response to the specific needs of the community? The eye wash station, with its rustic charm and historical significance, adds an air of mystery and allure to the pub. It serves as a reminder that even in the most unexpected places, one can find traces of the past that continue to shape our present. This photograph, a glimpse into the past, invites us to explore the depths of London's rich history and the stories that lie hidden within its walls.
