EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the grandeur of the Britannia Public House in Canning Town, London, as it stood in the 1920s. The image, taken from the corner, showcases the impressive red-brick facade adorned with ornate detailing and large, ornate windows. The name of the pub, "Britannia," is prominently displayed above the entrance, with the iconic emblem of the goddess Britannia holding a trident and shield. The Britannia Public House was a proud addition to the Canning Town community, having been established in 1925. The building was a part of the extensive portfolio of the Charrington and Company Limited, a prominent name in the British brewing industry at the time. The pub's trading record, dating back to 1913 and 1946, is a testament to its long and rich history. Unfortunately, the Britannia Public House was closed in 1948 and was later demolished. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the pub's former glory and the vibrant history it held within its walls. The image transports us back to the 1920s, a time of prosperity and community spirit, and offers a glimpse into the rich tapestry of London's pub history.
