EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the timeless charm of the Mitre Public House in Islington, London, as it looked in the 1960s. The image, taken in 1965, shows the pub's facade in all its glory, with its distinctive signage and ornate brickwork. The Mitre, located in the heart of Islington, was once a beloved local watering hole for residents and workers in the area. The pub, which can be found at 1-3 St. Paul's Road, Islington, London N1 1QP, was part of the Charrington and Company Limited estate. The back of the print reveals that as of July 2018, the upstairs of the Mitre had been converted to residential use, while the downstairs was being transformed into office space. However, in this photograph, the pub is bustling with activity, with people milling about outside and the promise of a warm welcome inside. The Mitre was a cherished part of the community in Islington for many years, and this photograph offers a glimpse into its rich history. The 1960s were a time of great change in London, and the Mitre, like many other pubs, was not immune to the forces of development. But for a moment in time, this photograph captures the Mitre in its heyday, a place where friends gathered, stories were shared, and life's simple pleasures were savored.
