EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the grandeur of Hammersmith Town Hall from Hammersmith Broadway, captured around 1935 by the talented photographer Donald McLeish. The town hall building, located in Hammersmith, west London, was a remarkable architectural masterpiece designed by JH Richardson and opened its doors to the public in 1897. Unfortunately, this iconic structure met its demise during the 1960s when it was demolished. The image portrays a cityscape frozen in time, with the impressive facade of Hammersmith Town Hall standing tall against the backdrop of bustling streets. Its Victorian tower reaches for the sky as a symbol of local government authority and civic pride. This photograph is part of "Wonderful London, Volume 3" edited by Arthur St John Adcock and published by Fleetway House in London around 1935. As we gaze upon this monochrome marvel, we are transported back to an era where architecture spoke volumes about a city's character and history. It serves as a poignant reminder that even though physical structures may disappear over time, their legacy lives on through photographs like these - preserving moments that would otherwise be lost forever. This print captures not only a piece of British heritage but also invites us to reflect on how our cities evolve throughout different centuries. It reminds us to appreciate both what remains and what has been lost along our journey through time.
