EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historic George & Dragon pub in the heart of London's vibrant Soho neighborhood. Established in the late 19th century, the George & Dragon has long been a beloved watering hole for locals and visitors alike. The pub's distinctive red brick facade, adorned with ornate stonework and intricate carvings, stands out among the bustling streets of this iconic area. The George & Dragon was once a proud independent establishment, but as of July 2018, it has been transformed into a branch of William Hill, the renowned betting company. Despite the change in ownership, the pub's rich history and character continue to draw in patrons. The new frontage, while different from the original, does little to detract from the building's overall charm. The George & Dragon is more than just a pub; it's a piece of London's history. Its location in Soho, an area known for its vibrant arts scene and diverse population, has made it a popular spot for artists, writers, and musicians throughout the years. The pub has even been mentioned in several works of literature, further cementing its place in London's cultural heritage. This photograph serves as a snapshot of a bygone era, a reminder of the rich history and character that can still be found in the heart of the city. Whether you're a London native or a first-time visitor, the George & Dragon is a must-see destination for anyone looking to experience the true spirit of the city.
