EDITORS COMMENTS
Old House in Fetter-Lane, London, 1858: A Glimpse into the Past This print, titled 'Old House in Fetter-Lane, London,' was published in the Illustrated London News in 1858. The creator of this enchanting sketch remains unknown, but it offers a fascinating glimpse into the history and architecture of London during the 19th century. The image showcases a substantial brick building, a characteristic example of the structures erected in the reign of Charles I, with the majority constructed after the Great Fire of 1662. The Holborn end of Fetter-Lane, where this house is located, still preserves much of the architectural appearance it had nearly three centuries ago. Near the old house, an old-fashioned hostelry can be seen, undergoing a transformation to the present fashion. The scene is set against the backdrop of a busy thoroughfare, with a ladder leaning against the side of the house, suggesting ongoing improvements or repairs. The print also captures the presence of street lighting, a relatively new addition to the urban landscape, which illuminates the street and casts an intriguing contrast against the traditional architecture. The image is filled with a sense of activity, as men in work clothes go about their daily tasks, adding to the vibrant atmosphere of the inner city. The Old House in Fetter-Lane stands as a testament to London's rich history, showcasing the blend of old and new, tradition and progress, that defined the city during the 19th century. This print, from the pages of the Illustrated London News, invites us to explore the past and appreciate the unique character of London's architectural heritage.
