EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the timeless charm of the Prince Alfred Public House in Deptford, London. Located at SE8 4EF, this historic building has stood as a beloved local watering hole for many years. The image showcases the pub's facade, with its ornate brickwork and intricate details, inviting passersby to step inside and unwind. The Prince Alfred, as it is affectionately known, is a cherished piece of Deptford's rich history. Though the exact origins of the pub are not definitively known, it is believed to have been established in the late 1800s, making it one of the area's oldest surviving public houses. Over the decades, it has served as a gathering place for locals, offering a warm and welcoming atmosphere, excellent beer, and a sense of community. The pub's name pays homage to Prince Alfred, the second son of Queen Victoria, who visited Deptford in 1861. Though the connection between the prince and the pub is tenuous at best, the name has stuck, adding an intriguing layer of history to this beloved local institution. As of July 2018, the Prince Alfred continues to stand proudly in Deptford, now in residential use. Though it no longer operates as a pub, its legacy lives on in the memories of those who have enjoyed a pint or two within its walls. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the past, capturing the essence of a bygone era and the enduring spirit of Deptford's community.
