EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the Bricklayers Arms pub in Norwood, Old London, during its reconstruction in the 1950s. The main side of the print showcases the pub undergoing a significant transformation, with scaffolding and builders at work. The old Bricklayers Arms, a cherished local establishment, had fallen victim to dry rot and was in dire need of extensive renovations. The back of the print reveals intriguing details about the pub's history. The photograph was taken by an unnamed photographer for The National Brewery Heritage Trust in July 2018. The Bricklayers Arms, located at SE27 0TL, had been gutted and rebuilt in 1955. This fascinating glimpse into the past offers a unique perspective on the restoration process of a traditional British pub. The Bricklayers Arms, an essential part of Norwood's community, was not owned by Hoare and Company Limited, as some may assume. Instead, it represents the resilience and adaptability of public houses in the face of adversity. This photograph is a testament to the rich history and heritage of pubs in Old London and serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving these cherished institutions for future generations.
