20th Century Architecture Public House Roof Suburban
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mesmerizing beauty of the Roof of the Winged Horse DP183247, located in Luncies Road, Barstable, Basildon, Essex. The image offers a general view looking north along the public house's green copper roof towards the first-floor flat. The striking 1960s green copper roof stands as a testament to both architectural brilliance and suburban charm. Its vibrant hue adds an element of uniqueness to this otherwise ordinary structure. As sunlight dances upon its surface, it creates a stunning visual spectacle that is hard to ignore. The Winged Horse itself exudes an air of history and tradition; it has witnessed countless stories unfold within its walls throughout the 20th century. This pub-turned-inn holds memories and tales from generations past, making it an integral part of Basildon's cultural fabric. Chris Redgrave's keen eye for detail allows us to appreciate every intricate aspect of this remarkable architectural marvel. From afar, we can admire how seamlessly the roof blends with its surroundings while still managing to command attention. This print serves as a reminder that even seemingly mundane elements like roofs can possess their own unique allure when viewed through the lens of artistry and appreciation for our built heritage. It invites us to pause and reflect on how architecture shapes our environment and influences our daily lives in ways we may not always notice or acknowledge.
