EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the corner view of the historic Greyhound pub, located in the heart of Woolwich, Old London. Established in the early 20th century by the Hoare and Company Limited, the Greyhound was a beloved local watering hole with a rich history. The pub, which can be seen here in its prime, boasts intricate brickwork and ornate details, reflecting the architectural charm of the era. The back of this print reveals the trading record of the Greyhound, providing a glimpse into its past. The pub opened its doors in 1934 and continued to thrive until 1957. Sadly, by July 2018, the Greyhound had ceased trading, and the building was demolished. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the pub's storied past and the memories it once held for the local community. The Greyhound, with its unique character and history, stands as a testament to the rich tapestry of London's past. This print, a piece of history in itself, invites us to imagine the lively conversations, laughter, and camaraderie that once filled its walls. Whether you're a history buff, a Londoner at heart, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of a well-preserved piece of the past, this photograph is sure to capture your imagination and transport you back in time.
