EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the facade of the Equestrian Public House, located in the heart of Southwark, London. The image, taken from a frontal perspective, showcases the pub's distinctive features, including its ornate brickwork, ornate signage, and large windows. The Equestrian, which was operated by Hoare and Company Limited, had a rich history that spanned several decades before it was unfortunately destroyed by enemy action on May 10, 1941. The back of this print reveals intriguing details about the pub's past. According to the trading record, the Equestrian had been in operation since at least 1934. The record also indicates that the pub continued to serve its community until the fateful day in 1941 when it was destroyed. The loss of the Equestrian was a significant blow to the Southwark community, as it was not only a popular gathering place but also an integral part of the area's history. Despite the pub's unfortunate demise, this photograph serves as a poignant reminder of its former glory. The image invites us to imagine the lively conversations, the clinking of glasses, and the warm camaraderie that once filled the Equestrian's cozy interior. This print is not only a beautiful addition to any decor but also a testament to the enduring spirit of the Southwark community and the resilience of London's historic pubs.
