EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Old Stuart houses from the reign of King James I, standing proudly at the south corner of Hosier Lane, Smithfield in 1795. The external specimen of the Plain Gable Style showcases a glimpse into the architectural beauty and historical significance of this era.
The ramshackle appearance and derelict state of these timber houses evoke a sense of nostalgia for a bygone time. John Thomas Smith's detailed copperplate engraving from his Topography of London in 1811 immortalizes these once-grand structures before their unfortunate demolition in 1809.
As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a time when plaster and timber house construction was prevalent, showcasing the domestic architecture favored during King James I's reign. The intricate details captured in this engraving highlight the craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into creating these historic buildings.
Despite their eventual demise, these Old Stuart houses serve as a reminder of London's rich history and architectural heritage. This print is not just a visual representation but also a testament to the resilience and endurance of these structures through centuries past.
