EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this evocative photograph of the Hour Glass pub in the heart of Kensington, London. Captured in the 1960s, this image transports us to an era of classic British pub culture. The pub, located at 2 DY, South Kensington, London SW3, is a local institution, having been established in 1968. The Hour Glass, also known as the Hoare and Company Limited pub, is nestled among the historic buildings and tree-lined streets of this affluent area. The photograph shows the left face of the pub, its bricks and mortar weathered by time, yet still standing proudly. The pub sign, with its distinctive clock and glass hour hand, is a clear indication of its name. The windows are adorned with simple wooden frames, and the door, with its worn-out handle, invites us in for a pint of ale or a hearty meal. The back of the print provides essential details about the pub, including its address and the year it was established. The Hour Glass pub, a cherished piece of Kensington's history, continues to serve its community, offering a warm and welcoming atmosphere for locals and visitors alike. This photograph is a testament to the enduring charm of traditional British pubs and the memories they hold for generations.
