EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of the Victoria Public House in Margate, Essex, as it looked in the 1950s. The image, taken by Thompson and Son Limited, showcases the corner view of the pub, with its red brick exterior and inviting frontage. The Victoria PH, located at CT9 4BH, was a beloved local establishment that held a rich history, as evidenced by the trading record detailed on the back of the print. The record reveals that the pub was in operation as early as 1950 and continued to thrive through 1963. By July 2018, however, the Victoria PH had closed its doors and was transformed into the Secret Spices Chinese restaurant. The photograph transports us to a bygone era, where the pub was the heart of the community, a place where friends gathered for a pint and a chat. The 1950s were a time of post-war optimism and prosperity, and this photograph encapsulates the spirit of the era. The pub's warm and inviting atmosphere is palpable, making it a must-see for anyone with an interest in social history or simply those who appreciate the charm of a well-loved local watering hole.
