EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the corner exterior of the historic George PH pub, located in Croydon, Surrey (CR0 3HD). The image, taken as of July 2018, reveals the intricate architectural details of this public house, with its ornate brickwork, decorative signage, and inviting entrance. The George, a beloved local establishment, has been a staple in the Croydon community for many years. However, the back of the print reveals a poignant update: as of September 2017, the pub had closed its doors, leaving the top floor seemingly occupied. The once bustling watering hole, a familiar gathering place for friends and neighbors, now stands quiet, a testament to the ever-changing landscape of urban life. The George, a public house, boasts a rich history and a distinct character that sets it apart from the typical modern bars and pubs. Its traditional charm, reminiscent of a bygone era, is a reminder of the warmth and camaraderie that can be found in a local pub. The building, adorned with the familiar "PH" sign, is a symbol of the community it once served, and a reminder of the stories, laughter, and memories that were created within its walls. This photograph, a snapshot of a moment in time, invites us to reflect on the past and consider the role that such establishments play in shaping our communities. Whether you're a local or a visitor, the George PH in Croydon, Surrey, is a must-see piece of history, and a reminder of the enduring allure of the British pub.
