EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming photograph of the Butchers Arms pub in Ashley, Kent, taken in the 1950s. The image captures the facade of the pub in all its glory, with its red brick exterior, white trim, and inviting sign hanging above the door. The Butchers Arms, located at CT15 5HX, was a beloved local establishment that dates back to at least 1952, as evidenced by the trading record detailed on the reverse of this print. The 1950s were a time of post-war optimism and community spirit in Britain, and the Butchers Arms was undoubtedly a hub of activity for the residents of Ashley. The pub's name, which does not refer to the Thompson and Son Limited Butchers company, suggests a long-standing tradition of serving both food and drink to the local community. Today, the Butchers Arms stands as a testament to the history and character of Ashley and its people. While the building may now be in residential use, its rich past as a pub continues to be a source of pride and nostalgia for those who remember it as a lively and welcoming gathering place. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of a bygone era and a glimpse into the history of a cherished local institution.
