EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of the Leather Bottle Inn, located in the picturesque village of Cobham, Kent, England, as it appeared over a century ago in 1910. Nestled among the lush greenery and quaint cottages, this historic pub has been a beloved local institution for generations. The Leather Bottle Inn, a Grade II listed building, is believed to date back to the 16th century, making it a significant piece of historical architecture in the area. The name "Leather Bottle" is said to originate from the traditional method of storing ale in leather bottles to preserve the freshness of the beer. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, capturing the essence of rural England during the early 20th century. The image shows the inn's charming exterior, adorned with ivy and boasting a thatched roof, as well as a horse-drawn cart parked outside, adding to the scene's authenticity. The Leather Bottle Inn has been a favorite watering hole for travelers and locals alike for centuries, offering not only a refreshing pint but also a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Today, the inn continues to thrive, attracting visitors from near and far who are drawn to its rich history and the opportunity to experience a piece of England's past. This photograph is an invaluable record of the Leather Bottle Inn's storied past and a testament to the enduring charm of this quintessential English pub.
