EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "General View of Old Kentish Town, 1820" takes us back to a bygone era in London's history. The image, captured around 1876 by an unknown creator, showcases the transformation of this once small settlement on the River Fleet into a bustling cityscape. Kentish Town Road, prominently featured in the photograph, served as a vital route connecting London to the north. It witnessed significant modernization during the early 20th century when large tracts of land were acquired for railway construction. The architectural charm of Georgian buildings with their distinctive chimneys is evident throughout the scene. The picture depicts a busy day in Kentish Town with horse-drawn vehicles traversing its streets. A man can be seen leading his horse and cart while another gentleman stands outside a traditional pub adorned with an intriguing sign. This establishment, known as Bull and Last, has been serving patrons since those times long past. As we gaze upon this monochrome snapshot from Edward Walford's publication "Old and New London: A Narrative of Its History" we are transported back to nineteenth-century England. The image evokes nostalgia for simpler times when smoke billowed from chimneys and stagecoaches rattled along cobblestone roads. This remarkable piece offers us a glimpse into our rich heritage—a testament to how cities evolve over time while still retaining traces of their historic roots.
