EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image, captured in 1875, offers a glimpse into the past of the historic Rosemary Branch pub in Peckham, London. The Rosemary Branch Inn, known for its eponymous rosemary branch sign, was a well-loved establishment that dates back to at least the early 1800s. Although this specific view is not from that era, it gives us an idea of what the pub may have looked like during the Victorian period. The Rosemary Branch, located in the heart of Peckham, was a popular watering hole for locals and travelers alike. The pub's history is rich and varied, with tales of smugglers, poets, and revolutionaries all said to have frequented its cozy confines. Despite undergoing several rebuilds over the centuries, a pub of the same name remained open until 1971. This photograph, taken in 1875, shows the Rosemary Branch Inn as it may have appeared during the height of the Victorian era. The pub's red brick facade, with its ornate wooden sign and large windows, exudes a sense of warmth and welcome. The image also offers a glimpse into the bustling street life of Peckham during this period, with horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians milling about in the background. Today, the Rosemary Branch Inn may be gone, but its legacy lives on in the stories and memories of those who once called it their local. This photograph serves as a reminder of the rich history and character that once defined this beloved London pub.
