EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the facade of the Castle pub, located in Eltham (New), Greater London, SE9 1BJ, during the 1960s. The pub, which was not part of the Charrington and Company Limited estate, is shown here in its original form, with a traditional public house design. The building's brickwork and ornate details are accentuated by the soft lighting and the lush greenery surrounding it, giving the image a warm and inviting feel. The back of the print reveals intriguing details about the pub's history. According to the trading record, the Castle, Eltham (New) was in operation as early as 1958. By 1963, the pub had undergone some changes, but it was not until 1964 that it became a KFC. This fascinating transformation from a local pub to a fast-food restaurant is a testament to the evolving nature of businesses in the 1960s. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the history and character of this once-popular watering hole. Whether you're a local historian, a fan of vintage photography, or simply someone who enjoys a good story, this image is sure to capture your imagination and transport you back in time.
