EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of the Railway Hotel in Grays, Essex, dating back to the 1930s. The image showcases the facade of the pub, with its ornate brickwork and large, arched windows. The Railway Hotel, a beloved local establishment, was a popular gathering place for the community during this era. The history of the pub can be traced back to the Trading Record detailed on the reverse side of this print, which reveals that the Railway Hotel was in operation as early as 1928. Over the years, it continued to thrive, attracting patrons with its welcoming atmosphere and perhaps a pint or two. However, as the decades passed, change was on the horizon for the Railway Hotel. By July 2018, the pub had closed its doors for conversion into offices and flats, marking the end of an era. Yet, the memories and stories of the past remain, etched in the bricks and mortar of this historic building. This photograph, taken in the 1930s, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the Railway Hotel was a bustling hub of activity and a cherished part of the Grays community. A true testament to the enduring charm of public houses, this image is a must-have for anyone with an interest in local history or the social history of pubs in Essex.
