EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of Ye Old Fighting Cocks Public House in St Albans, Hertfordshire, England, dating back to the 1920s. This historic pub, rich in tradition and local folklore, has been a cherished landmark in the community for centuries. The name "Ye Old Fighting Cocks" is believed to have originated from the 18th century when cockfighting was a popular pastime. The pub's emblem, a pair of cocks fighting, is a nod to its intriguing past. However, it's important to note that cockfighting was outlawed in England in 1835, and the current pub sign is a symbolic representation of the pub's history rather than an endorsement of the activity. The photograph captures the quaint charm of the pub, with its timber-framed exterior, thatched roof, and inviting red door. The cobblestone street, lined with ancient buildings, adds to the sense of history and tradition. The pub's warm, welcoming atmosphere is evident, making it a beloved gathering place for locals and visitors alike. The 1920s were an era of significant change, and this photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era. Despite the passage of time, Ye Old Fighting Cocks Public House continues to thrive, preserving its rich history and serving as a testament to the enduring spirit of St Albans and its people.
