EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of the Ancient Briton Public House in Bow, London, as it looked in the 1930s. The image, taken in 1939, showcases the pub's intriguing facade with its ornate signage and red brick exterior. The Ancient Briton, located at 333-335 Roman Road, E3 3QS, was once a beloved local establishment that has since closed its doors, demolished as of July 2018. This photograph, preserved by The National Brewery Heritage Trust, offers a glimpse into the rich history of London's pub culture during the thirties. The Hoare & Company Limited, which operated the pub, is not mentioned in the image but was a significant player in the brewing industry at the time. The Ancient Briton, much like many other public houses, played an essential role in the community, providing a place for locals to gather, socialize, and enjoy a pint. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the past, capturing the essence of a bygone era and the stories that once unfolded within its walls. As you admire the details of the Ancient Briton's facade, imagine the laughter, conversations, and camaraderie that once filled its interior. This photograph is not only a historical document but also a tribute to the pubs that have shaped our communities and left an indelible mark on our collective memory.
