PUBLICATION - PUBLIC HOUSE A Tapestry of London Heritage Pub Interiors - Published Book, 2015

ABOUT THE BOOK

My photographic intent in this book is to showcase distinctive aspects of selected pre-1939 London pubs, a tapestry of interiors that displays historic authenticity and architectural importance. In all cases, these pubs were officially graded and listed as historic in the CAMRA London Regional Inventory, published in 2004, with the exception of The Prospect of Whitby, the oldest Thames Riverside Pub. This pub has been included,as in 1962, it was the first pub ever visited by this photographer. The fond memory of this occasion was the impetus for me to further explore London’s public houses from a photographic perspective. My vision for this project was to capture something “very British and engaging,” while at the same time respecting my enthusiasm to continue to shoot historic, urban landmarks that bear witness to the past, yet remain preserved as iconic entities - visual reminders of survival and often magnificance.

The George Inn is listed as Grade 1 (exceptional importance); The Argyll Arms, Princess Louise, The Black Friar and The Salisbury (Harringay) are listed as Grade II* (outstanding interest); and Cittie of Yorke, Lamb & Flag, The Victoria, Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese, Ye Olde Mitre, The Red Lion, The Coal Hole and The Salisbury (Covent Garden), are listed as Grade II (special architectural or historic interest). Since the 1990s, CAMRA and English Heritage, a government agency, have been collaborating in a significant number of ways to protect historic public houses.

Fourteen public houses are included and are presented in the order of when they were built, beginning with the oldest. For purposes of this book, the age of each pub was determined to be the year that the original public house was first built on the site now occupied by the current public house. While in some cases, records show that the names of the public houses have changed in the intervening years, nevertheless, the original dates represent authenticity of the public houses as they stand today.
