EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Faunce Arms pub in Kennington, London, as it stood in the mid-twentieth century. The main side of the print showcases the corner view of this historic public house, with its distinctive red brick facade and ornate signage. The Faunce Arms, a beloved local establishment, was more than just a place to quench one's thirst; it was a community hub where neighbors gathered to socialize and connect. The back of the print reveals the rich history of the Faunce Arms, detailing its trading record from 1934 and 1961. This snapshot of time highlights the pub's resilience, as it was badly damaged during enemy action on April 16, 1941, but managed to reopen its doors just one month later on August 1, 1941. The Faunce Arms, a testament to the spirit of Kennington, continued to serve its community for many years before eventually falling into residential use. This photograph, taken by an unknown photographer, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the Faunce Arms was a vibrant part of the local scene. The image is a poignant reminder of the history and character that can be found in the most unexpected places, and serves as a tribute to the pubs and public houses that have long been the heart of communities across London and beyond.
