EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this evocative photograph of the Portland Arms pub in Notting Hill, London, as it looked in the 1950s. The image captures the charming facade of the public house, with its distinctive sign and ornate brickwork. The Portland Arms, located at W11 4LN, was a long-standing establishment of the Charrington and Company Limited, a prominent brewery in London during the mid-20th century. The back of this print reveals the pub's trading record, showcasing its operation from 1938 to 1961. Sadly, as of July 2018, the Portland Arms had closed its doors for good. Today, the building has been transformed into the Cowshed Beauty Salon. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, providing a tangible connection to Notting Hill's rich history. The 1950s were a pivotal decade for London, marked by post-war reconstruction and the emergence of new cultural trends. This photograph encapsulates the spirit of the era, inviting us to imagine the lively conversations, laughter, and camaraderie that once filled the Portland Arms. Whether you're a local historian, a London enthusiast, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of bygone eras, this photograph is a must-have addition to your collection.
