EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the 19th century, showcases The Times Printing House Square in the heart of London's City. Named after the historic site of the former Kings Printer's office, which once occupied the land, Printing House Square holds a rich history that extends beyond the realm of commercial enterprise. The Times newspaper once proudly called this location home for many years, with its office situated here until it eventually moved to Grays Inn Road and later to Wapping. The image captures the grandeur of the printing house, with its impressive facade and the bustling activity of the printing presses at work. The large windows allow glimpses into the inner workings of the printing process, revealing the dedication and meticulousness required to produce each edition. Despite the passage of time, Printing House Square remains a significant piece of London's history. The site, which has since been completely redeveloped, once stood as a testament to the city's rich literary and printing heritage. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, providing a fascinating window into the past and the intricacies of the printing industry during the 19th century.
