EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the facade of the Plough Public House in Sutton, Surrey, during the 1940s. The image, taken by an unknown photographer, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the temporary structure that replaced the original pub after it was demolished in 1941. The Plough PH, located at SM3 9PW, was a cherished local establishment in the historic market town of Sutton. The temporary building, which housed the pub during its reconstruction, stands proudly with its wooden signboard bearing the familiar Plough and Stars insignia. The brick exterior, adorned with ivy, exudes a rustic charm, transporting us back in time. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the past, as the Plough, like many other buildings in Sutton, was affected by the turbulent events of the 1940s. The back of the print reveals that the original pub was demolished in 1941, but the exact reason for its destruction remains unknown. The temporary building, which served as a temporary refuge for the community, was a testament to the resilience and spirit of the people of Sutton during those challenging times. This photograph, taken by Mary Evans Picture Library from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a unique perspective into the history of Sutton and the Plough PH. It is a valuable piece of social history that captures the essence of a bygone era, inviting us to reflect on the past and appreciate the rich tapestry of our communities.
