EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the corner facade of the Prince of Wales pub, located in the vibrant area of Barnsbury, London. The image transports us back in time to the 1960s, with the pub's distinctive red brick exterior and ornate signage adorned with the iconic Prince of Wales feathers. The pub, which has undergone several name changes over the years, was originally owned by the Charrington and Company Limited. According to the back of the print, the pub's trading record dates back to 1942 and 1961. At that time, the pub was known as the Prince of Wales. Over the decades, it has been referred to as Ralph's, Kink, and most recently, Melt Down. The pub's rich history adds to the allure of this local institution, which continues to be a beloved watering hole for the Barnsbury community." "The photograph, which is part of the extensive collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the past and the ever-evolving landscape of London's pub culture. The image is not only a valuable historical document but also a testament to the enduring charm of traditional British pubs and their role as social hubs within local communities." "The Prince of Wales pub, with its intriguing past and unique character, invites us to imagine the stories and memories that have unfolded within its walls over the years. Whether it's a quiet pint enjoyed in the company of friends or an animated conversation with the locals, the pub remains a cherished gathering place where history and tradition intertwine.
