EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Abbey Wood Club in Plumstead, London, as it stood in the 1920s. Located at SE2 9EX, the pub, affectionately known as a 'boozer' or 'local,' was a beloved establishment in the community during this era. The image on the print's main side shows the pub's facade, with its distinctive signage and brick exterior. The building was a proud creation of the Charrington and Company Limited, a notable name in the brewing industry during that time. The back of the print reveals fascinating historical details about the Abbey Wood Club. According to the records, the pub opened its doors in 1921, and by 1925 and 1950, it had an impressive trading history. However, the pub's story did not end there. Sadly, as of July 2018, the Abbey Wood Club had been demolished, and the site now serves as a council nursery. This photograph is a precious reminder of the rich history and character of London's pub culture during the 1920s. It invites us to imagine the lively conversations, the clinking of glasses, and the camaraderie that once filled the Abbey Wood Club. The print is a must-have for history enthusiasts, local historians, and anyone with an appreciation for the social and architectural heritage of London's pubs.
