EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the charming facade of the Queens Head Public House, located in the heart of Southwark, London. The image presents a corner view of the quintessential British pub, with its ornate brickwork, intricately designed sign, and inviting entrance. The Queens Head, a beloved local establishment, holds a rich history that extends beyond its picturesque appearance. As documented on the reverse of this print, the pub's trading record dates back to 1934 and 1941. Unfortunately, the Queens Head could not withstand the challenges of the business world and was forced to close its doors in January 1941. The reasons for its demise were attributed to poor trading conditions. Despite its unfortunate fate, this photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the pub's existence and the role it once played within the Southwark community. The Queens Head stands as a testament to the history and character of London's vibrant pub culture. The building itself, now demolished, is a symbol of the ever-changing cityscape and the memories it holds for generations of patrons. This image invites us to imagine the stories and moments that unfolded within its walls and the impact it had on the lives of those who visited.
