EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of the Borough Shades Public House in Gravesend, Kent, taken in the 1930s. The image showcases the charming facade of the pub, with its distinctive red brick exterior and ornate signage, which proudly displays the name "Borough Shades" and the logo of the Charrington and Company Limited. The Borough Shades, located at DA12 1AD, was a beloved local establishment that has since undergone a transformation, now known as HQ Bar. A glimpse at the back of this vintage print reveals the pub's trading records, which detail its operation from 1929 to 1961. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a window into the rich history of public houses in Gravesend and Kent. The 1930s was an era of innovation and change, and this image captures the essence of a bygone era, inviting us to imagine the stories and memories that were created within these walls. The Borough Shades Public House stands as a testament to the importance of preserving our heritage and the role that local watering holes play in shaping the fabric of our communities. This photograph is not only a beautiful piece of art but also a valuable historical document that tells the story of a time when life was a little slower, and a visit to the local pub was a cherished social event.
