EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic White Conduit House, dating back to around 1820. Located on Barnesbury Road in Islington, which is now part of Greater London, this building derived its name from the nearby conduit head. The image showcases the architectural beauty of the house, highlighting its significance in British history. White Conduit Fields, where cricket was played during the 18th century, holds a special place in sporting heritage. It served as the original home of the White Conduit Club, which eventually evolved into the prestigious Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC). This photograph offers a glimpse into England's rich cricketing past. Taken from Walter Thornbury's book "Old and New London" published by Cassell, Petter, Galpin & Co. , this monochrome image transports us to a bygone era. Its timeless appeal allows us to appreciate both the cityscape and countryside surrounding White Conduit House. The photographer behind this picture remains unknown but has skillfully captured not only an architectural marvel but also a piece of English sporting history. As we gaze upon this print today, we can't help but feel connected to those who once occupied these grounds and contributed to their legacy.
