EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historic George The Fourth pub, located on City Road in London's vibrant Hoxton area. The image presents a direct and unobstructed view of the pub's facade, with its ornate red brick exterior and distinctive signage bearing the image of King George IV. The pub, also known as a boozer or bar, has long been a staple of the local community, drawing in patrons with its inviting atmosphere and rich history. The George The Fourth, established by the Hoare and Company Limited, has stood the test of time, weathering the ever-changing landscape of the city. However, this photograph was taken prior to a significant event that would alter the pub's fate forever. As noted on the reverse of the print, the pub was destroyed by enemy action on April 16, 1941, during the tumultuous period of World War II. The back of the print also includes the pub's address, EC1V 9HB, serving as a poignant reminder of its former existence. Despite its tragic demise, the memory of the George The Fourth lives on, leaving us with this snapshot of a cherished piece of London's history. The photograph invites us to imagine the stories and conversations that once took place within its walls, and to appreciate the resilience of the city's pubs and their role in shaping the fabric of local communities.
