EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of the Crown & Thistle Public House in Gravesend, Kent, dating back to the 1930s. The image showcases the pub's facade in all its glory, with the Crown and Thistle emblems proudly displayed above the entrance. The brick and stucco exterior, adorned with intricate detailing, exudes a sense of history and tradition. Originally built in 1935, this pub was once a thriving establishment in the heart of Gravesend. The back of the print reveals fascinating details about its past, including its trading records from 1929 and 1961. The Crown & Thistle was a part of the Charrington and Company Limited, a well-known name in the brewing industry during the 20th century. As of July 2018, the pub had been closed, leaving its rich history and stories untold. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, inviting us to imagine the lively conversations, laughter, and camaraderie that once filled its walls. The 1930s, often referred to as the thirties or the 30s, was an era of change and resilience, and this photograph is a testament to the enduring spirit of the pub and the community it served. This photograph is an invaluable piece of social history, offering a unique insight into the past of Gravesend and the pub industry. It is not to be used for commercial purposes and is available for personal use only.
