EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the corner view of the historic Bedford Hotel, located in the vibrant and culturally rich area of Hackney, London. The image transports us back in time to the 1940s, as depicted by the date inscribed on the back of the print - 1941. At that time, the Bedford Hotel, with its distinctive signage and red brick facade, was a popular local pub and social hub for the community. The Hoare & Company Limited, a well-known name in the brewing industry, managed the pub during this era. The trading record on the reverse of the print indicates that the Bedford Hotel was in operation from at least 1934 and continued to serve its patrons until 1961. Sadly, the Bedford Hotel, like many historic pubs, succumbed to the relentless march of urban development. By July 2018, the pub had been closed and converted into flats, marking the end of an era for this cherished local institution. This photograph is an invaluable record of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the past and reminding us of the rich history and character that once defined Hackney's pub scene. The National Brewery Heritage Trust has preserved this image for future generations to appreciate and learn from, ensuring that the stories of pubs like the Bedford Hotel continue to be told.
