EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Derek Kendall showcases the exquisite ironwork of Arbour Square, located in the vibrant borough of Tower Hamlets, London. The focal point of this image is a beautifully crafted coal hole plate outside number 48 Arbour Square. This intricate piece of ironwork tells a story of craftsmanship and attention to detail that was prevalent during its time. The opercula design on the coal hole plate adds an element of elegance and sophistication to this otherwise functional object. Its delicate curves and ornate patterns are a testament to the artistic flair that went into even the most mundane aspects of Victorian architecture. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time, imagining the bustling streets filled with horse-drawn carriages and top-hatted gentlemen strolling along these very pavements. It serves as a reminder that every corner of our cities holds hidden treasures from our past. Derek Kendall's keen eye for capturing architectural beauty allows us to appreciate not only grand landmarks but also smaller details like this coal hole plate. Through his lens, he invites us to take notice of these often-overlooked elements that contribute to the rich tapestry of our urban landscapes. This print from Historic England is more than just a visual representation; it is an invitation to explore history through artistry and craftsmanship - reminding us that even everyday objects can hold stories worth preserving.
