The Crown, Chiddingfold, Surrey, 1936 - A Glimpse into England's Rich History
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the year 1936 and transports us to The Crown Inn in Chiddingfold, Surrey. Built in the 13th century as a Rest House for monks on pilgrimage, this remarkable establishment has witnessed centuries of British history unfold within its walls. The image showcases the inn's charming exterior with its aged architecture and iconic chimney stacks that stand tall against the backdrop of a picturesque countryside. In front of the building, we see people going about their daily lives - a man and woman on bicycles representing early road transport, adding an old-fashioned touch to this timeless scene. Notably significant are the royal visits by Edward VI in 1552 and Queen Elizabeth I in 1591. These historical moments have left an indelible mark on The Crown Inn's legacy. It is fascinating to imagine these influential figures walking through those very doors so many years ago. As part of "Old Inns - A Series of 40" published by W. D. & H. O. Wills in 1936, this cigarette card captures not only architectural beauty but also serves as a testament to Britain's rich heritage. It reminds us that even amidst modernity, there are places like The Crown Inn that proudly preserve our past. This print from Heritage Images allows us to appreciate both the grandeur of history and the simple pleasures found within an English pub – where stories were shared over pints and memories made for generations to come.
