EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Blue Last Public House on Ludgate Hill in London during the 1920s. The image, taken from an angle, showcases the corner of this historic pub with its distinctive signage and ornate brickwork. The Blue Last, a storied establishment with a rich history, was once owned by the Charrington and Company Limited. The back of this print reveals intriguing details about the pub's past. According to the record, the Blue Last was in operation as early as 1913 and continued to trade until 1931, when it was ultimately demolished in 1920. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, providing a tangible connection to London's history and its vibrant pub culture. The Blue Last, a cherished local watering hole, was more than just a place to quench one's thirst. It was a community hub where stories were shared, friendships were forged, and laughter filled the air. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the pub's significance and the memories it held for generations of Londoners. As you gaze upon this image, you can almost hear the clinking of glasses, the lively banter, and the soft hum of conversation that once filled the Blue Last. This photograph is not only a testament to London's architectural heritage but also to its rich social history. The Blue Last may no longer exist, but its spirit lives on in the hearts and minds of those who remember it fondly.
