EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the facade of the George PH, Holborn (New) in London during the 1960s. Located at WC2B 5DG, this historic pub once stood proudly as a beloved watering hole for locals and visitors alike. The image, taken by an unknown photographer, offers a glimpse into the past, with its bricked exterior and ornate signage bearing the name of the Charrington and Company Limited, a well-known brewery at the time. The back of the print reveals intriguing details about the pub's history. According to the Trading Record, the George, Holborn (New) was in operation as early as 1939, and by 1961, it was under the management of Enterprise Inns. The George was a popular establishment that served its community for several decades before eventually making way for modern development. As of July 2018, the George PH, Holborn (New) no longer exists, having been replaced by an office block. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the rich history and character that once defined this corner of London. The 1960s were a pivotal time in the city's history, and this image offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the unique charm and allure of a bygone era.
