EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Riceyman Steps, or rather Granville Place, in the unlovely Kings Cross Road during the 1930s. The image showcases a set of steps leading up to Granville Square in Kings Cross, north London. Despite its lackluster surroundings, this architectural gem stands tall with its timeless beauty. The photographer, Arthur St John Adcock, expertly captures the monochrome cityscape of London during this era. The buildings lining either side of Granville Place exude an air of history and character that is unique to British architecture. This snapshot in time allows us to glimpse into a bygone era when simplicity and elegance were paramount. In the midst of this urban landscape lies a church steeped in religious significance. Its presence serves as a reminder that amidst bustling city life, faith and spirituality endure. The contrast between the grandeur of the church and its humble surroundings adds depth to this photograph. Published in "Wonderful London". Volume 2 edited by St John Adcock himself, this print holds historical value for those interested in exploring Britain's past through visual documentation. It offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate not only the physical structures but also their cultural significance within Camden and England as a whole. As we gaze upon this image from nearly a century ago, we are transported back in time - reminded once again that even amidst concrete jungles like Kings Cross Road, there is always beauty waiting to be discovered if we take a moment to
