1910s Early 20th Century House Street Urban
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time on Brewhouse Lane, Putney, Wandsworth, Greater London. The image showcases a group of individuals standing outside a house, their faces filled with intrigue and curiosity. In the backdrop stands The Castle public house at the junction of Putney Bridge Road, adding to the charm and character of this early 20th-century street scene. The photograph is part of William Fields's collection titled "Photographs of Putney" meticulously compiled by Dorian Gerhold and Michael Bull for the esteemed Wandsworth Historical Society. It offers us a glimpse into the lives of ordinary families living amidst urban poverty during the 1910s. As we delve deeper into this snapshot from history, we are transported back to an era where life was simpler yet fraught with challenges. The worn-out facades tell tales of resilience while also highlighting societal disparities that plagued many neighborhoods. While it is important to acknowledge that this photo should not be used for commercial purposes, its value lies in preserving our collective memory and understanding our shared past. Through images like these captured by William O Field, we gain insight into forgotten stories that shape our present-day society. Let us cherish these visual artifacts as windows into another time – reminders that progress comes hand-in-hand with empathy towards those who came before us.
