EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Marine Hotel in Silvertown, London, as it stood in the 1940s. Located on the left side of the image, the pub, with its distinctive red-painted sign and ornate facade, invites passersby for a pint or a hearty meal. The Marine Hotel, a popular local watering hole, was owned by the Hoare and Company Limited, although the company name is not visible in this image. The back of the print reveals that the Marine Hotel, Silvertown, London E16 1US, was redeveloped in 1941, but the exact nature of the changes is not specified. The date of the photograph places it in the midst of World War II, a time of great upheaval and transformation for the city. Despite the looming threat of the war, the Marine Hotel continues to stand as a beacon of community and resilience. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the pub was a central hub of social life. The Marine Hotel, with its warm and inviting atmosphere, would have provided a welcome refuge for locals seeking solace from the challenges of daily life. Today, the pub may have undergone changes, but the spirit of community and camaraderie it once embodied remains an enduring part of Silvertown's rich history.
