EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of High Street in St John's Wood, north-west London, circa 1905. The cobblestone street, lined with trees and lampposts, exudes an Edwardian charm that transports us to a bygone era. At the heart of the scene, Hanover House, a grand mansion block of flats, stands proudly with its ornate facade. The buildings around it, adorned with intricate architectural details and distinctive signs, tell tales of their unique histories. The Portman Arms and Portland Arms pubs, with their inviting red and blue signs respectively, add a sense of community and warmth to the bustling street. The view is further enhanced by the presence of a bicycle parked by the side of the road, a common mode of transportation during the early 1900s. The lanterns and lanterns on the lampposts cast a soft glow over the scene, illuminating the cobblestones and adding to the romantic atmosphere. The photograph also offers a glimpse into the city's rich history, with the old brewery sign visible in the background. St John's Wood, with its charming streets and elegant architecture, continues to be a desirable and sought-after area in London, attracting visitors and residents alike with its timeless charm and character.
