EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of the Mercers Arms pub in Stepney, London, taken in the 1930s. The image showcases the corner view of this historic public house, with its red brick facade and ornate signage. The Mercers Arms, located at Mercers Place, E1 0NQ, was a beloved local establishment that holds a rich history. As evidenced by the back of the print, the pub's trading record dates back to 1934 and 1961. Unfortunately, the Mercers Arms closed its doors in 2006 and was later converted to residential use. This photograph, taken in 1939, captures the essence of a bygone era in London's history. The Hoare & Company Limited, which operated the pub, is not mentioned in the photograph caption. However, the company played a significant role in the pub's history. The 1930s were an exciting time for the Mercers Arms, as the area of Stepney was undergoing rapid transformation. The pub likely served as a social hub for the local community, providing a place for friends to gather, stories to be shared, and a pint or two to be enjoyed. This photograph is a testament to the history and character of London's pubs and the role they play in shaping the fabric of our communities. Whether you're a history buff, a Londoner, or simply someone who appreciates the charm of a good old-fashioned pub, this image is sure to capture your imagination and transport you back in time.
