EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the exterior of the Mid Kent Tavern, located in Lewisham, London, during the 1920s. The image presents a corner view of the pub, with its red brick facade and ornate, tiled signage displaying the name "Mid Kent Tavern" and the insignia of the Charrington and Company Limited. The pub, a beloved local watering hole, was a popular destination for residents of the area during this era. The Mid Kent Tavern holds a rich history, as evidenced by the trading record detailed on the reverse side of this print. According to the record, the pub was in operation from at least 1924 and remained open until 1928, when it was unfortunately closed and demolished. The 1920s, also known as the "roaring twenties," were a time of economic prosperity and cultural growth in the United Kingdom, and this photograph offers a glimpse into the social fabric of the past. The Mid Kent Tavern, with its warm, inviting atmosphere and sense of community, stands as a reminder of the past and the role that pubs played in the lives of people during this time. This photograph is a valuable historical document, offering a window into a bygone era and the stories that it holds.
