EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the heart of Hackney, East London, showcases the iconic Railway Tavern pub in all its 1950s glory. The image, captured in 1957, offers a glimpse into the past, revealing the corner facade of this historic public house. With its distinctive signage and ornate brickwork, the Railway Tavern stands as a testament to London's rich architectural history. The pub, which was once a popular watering hole for locals, was owned by the Hoare and Company Limited. Although the exact address is not mentioned in the photograph, the back of the print reveals that the Railway Tavern is located in Hackney, specifically at 1HY E8 in London. At the time of this photograph, the pub was a thriving social hub, serving as a community gathering place. However, as of July 2018, the Railway Tavern has closed its doors, making way for new developments. In its place, a Paddy Power betting shop now occupies the space. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the ever-changing urban landscape and the importance of preserving the history of our local communities. The Railway Tavern may no longer be in operation, but its legacy lives on through images like this one, allowing us to appreciate the past and reflect on the evolution of our cities.
