EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Royal Standard Public House in Gravesend, Kent, during the 1930s. The image, taken from the corner, showcases the pub's distinctive red-brick facade with ornate white detailing and large, arched windows. The Royal Standard, which was not affiliated with the Charrington and Company Limited, was a popular local establishment that once stood at DA12 2DF. Though the exact date of this photograph is unknown, the back of the print reveals that the pub's trading records date back to 1924 and continued until 1958. Sadly, the Royal Standard met its end in 1931, making this photograph a rare visual record of a bygone era. The 1930s, often referred to as the 'thirties,' was a period of significant social and economic change in the United Kingdom. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing insight into the architectural and social history of Gravesend and its pub culture during that time. The Royal Standard Public House, with its inviting appearance and rich history, stands as a testament to the community it once served. Though the building is no longer in existence, this photograph preserves its memory, allowing us to appreciate the charm and character of a cherished piece of local history.
