EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a snapshot of life in Coventry Street, London, in 1947. The Mapleton Hotel and Restaurant, located just a stone's throw away from Piccadilly Circus, is the prominent feature of the scene. The elegant Art Deco building, with its distinctive arched windows and ornate facade, stands proudly against the backdrop of post-war London. In the foreground, a lorry laden with milk churns adds a touch of rustic charm to the urban landscape. The milk, a staple of British life, was still being delivered to homes and businesses in the traditional way, despite the advances of the modern world. The Automobile Association building on the left, with its large, red and white sign, serves as a reminder of the growing importance of the automobile industry in the post-war era. The buildings surrounding Coventry Street, including the grand Piccadilly Theatre and the iconic Cine-Variety Marquee, add to the vibrant and eclectic atmosphere of the area. The scene is a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the juxtaposition of the old and the new, and the resilience of Londoners in the aftermath of the Second World War.
