EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the timeless charm of the Albion Public House in Gravesend, Kent, as it stood in the mid-20th century. The image, taken from the left side, reveals the classic design of the building with its distinctive red brick facade, ornate windows, and intricately patterned half-timbering. The Albion, a cherished local establishment, holds a rich history that dates back to at least 1934, as evidenced by the trading record detailed on the reverse of this print. The pub, which once stood at 11-13 West Street in Gravesend, DA12 2SR, was a beloved gathering place for generations of locals. The Albion's story continued through the challenging years of World War II, as indicated by the record for 1946. However, by July 2018, the pub had closed its doors and was converted into residential use. This photograph, preserved by The National Brewery Heritage Trust, offers a glimpse into the past of this once-thriving public house. It serves as a reminder of the important role that such establishments played in the social fabric of communities, providing a place for friends and neighbors to connect and share experiences. This print is not only a beautiful addition to any home decor but also a testament to the enduring history of public houses like the Albion in Gravesend, Kent.
