EDITORS COMMENTS
The World Turned Upside Down PLS01_01_05 captures a mesmerizing glimpse into the past, transporting us to the vibrant streets of Old Kent Road in Southwark, Greater London. This photo print, taken around 1910 before its reconstruction, showcases the iconic public house known as The World Turned Upside Down. Steeped in history and Victorian charm, this lost pub stands as a testament to an era long gone. Its grand facade adorned with intricate architectural details and inviting lanterns exudes a sense of warmth and conviviality that once filled its walls. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a time when locals would gather here for lively conversations over pints of ale or perhaps indulge in hearty meals after a long day's work. The photograph from Historic England Archive beautifully encapsulates the essence of this bygone era. It invites us to reflect on how our surroundings have evolved over time while reminding us of the importance of preserving our cultural heritage. Through its lens, we witness not only an architectural marvel but also catch glimpses into the lives and stories woven within these walls. This remarkable piece serves as both a historical artifact and an evocative reminder that even amidst progress and change, it is crucial to honor our roots and cherish the places that hold memories dear.
