EDITORS COMMENTS
Nestled on the north bank of the River Thames, just a stone's throw away from the bustling Strand, lies the enchanting Fox-under-the-Hill tavern. This charming 18th-century pub, depicted in this print from Mary Evans Picture Library, was a beloved establishment known for its rich history and mystical allure. The Fox-under-the-Hill tavern was a popular gathering place for locals and travelers alike, offering a welcoming respite from the hustle and bustle of London life. The tavern's name was derived from an old English legend about a fox that lived in the nearby woods, who was said to have a hidden entrance to his den under the hill. This mythical creature became the tavern's namesake and symbol, adding to its intriguing lore. The print captures the essence of the tavern, with its quaint exterior, inviting fireplace, and rustic decor. The patrons, dressed in their finest attire, engage in lively conversation, while the barkeep pours a pint of ale for a weary traveler. The warm, cozy atmosphere of the Fox-under-the-Hill tavern is a testament to the enduring charm of traditional English pubs. As the sun begins to set over the River Thames, the Fox-under-the-Hill tavern continues to be a beacon of hospitality and camaraderie, drawing in visitors from far and wide. This enchanting print serves as a reminder of the rich history and timeless allure of this beloved London institution.
