EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of London in the 1930s. The image showcases the First Floor Grill Room of The Cock, an iconic ale house that overlooks Fleet Street. Walter Benington, the talented creator behind this snapshot, masterfully captures both the architectural beauty and lively atmosphere within. As we delve into this picture, our eyes are immediately drawn to the intricate details of the interior. The furniture exudes a sense of elegance and history, while also providing a cozy setting for patrons to enjoy their drinks and conversations. The monochrome tones add a timeless quality to the scene, transporting us to a bygone era. The location itself holds great significance as it is situated in the heart of London's City district. Fleet Street, known for its association with journalism and publishing houses at that time, adds another layer of historical context to this photograph. This print is part of "Wonderful London". Volume 3 edited by Arthur St John Adcock—a publication that beautifully encapsulates various aspects of life in Britain's capital city during different periods. It serves as a window into not only architectural marvels but also social gatherings and cultural experiences that took place within these beloved establishments. With its rich heritage and stunning composition, this print truly embodies the essence of old-world charm found in London's taverns like The Cock on Fleet Street.
