EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the charming facade of the Compasses Public House in Chelmsford, Essex, as it appeared in the 1930s. The image, taken from the left side, showcases the pub's intricate brickwork and ornate detailing, with its name and "Seabrooke and Sons, Limited" sign proudly displayed above the entrance. The Compasses, located at CM1 1RY, was a beloved local establishment that boasts a rich history, as evidenced by the trading record detailed on the reverse of this print. According to the records, the pub was in operation as early as 1928 and underwent demolition and rebuilding in 1930. The 1930s were a significant time in the history of the Compasses, as this era saw the publication of its first trading record. Though the pub has since been rebuilt, this photograph serves as a precious reminder of its storied past and the role it played in the community of Chelmsford, Essex.
