The beauty of simplicity..

"Served Through The Window" #Whitechapel Road, East #London, #England.

They paid a price for each of us,
Of harship, frost, and war.
So dear was the toll they paid,
Their like are seen no more.

This is #Thaxted Guildhall, a 15th Century Listed building built six hundred years ago. (Town St, Thaxted, #Dunmow, #Essex, #CM6) It stares at a beautiful town that, in turn, stares back at it. Nearly all of #England/#Britain could carry such charm if only we preserved it better.

A glorious, antique photograph of the #Wine Vaults in #London Docks. Nowadays our alcohol arrives on lorries, planes and big, boring ships. Once, our booze adventured the seven seas the old fashioned way just so #England's wine lovers could indulge. 🍷 @lostandlivingpubs

No modern bar will ever compete with a traditional public house.

The people outside this pub seem to say so very much despite being but lost souls within a vintage photo.

If we had what little we wanted, we would want for nothing.

Of all vintage videos, the ones with people in them are the most encapsulating and emotional. One can't help but wonder if I've interacted with the ancestors of the bygone people we see when they were so full of life. Here are some faces from Edwardian #England (1902)

See you all soon. #Ware, #Hertfordshire, #England

This 1977 documentary named "In One End" covers some beautiful pubs. The first clip is of a man discussing his survival of a major flood that occurred in 1953. The #NorthSeaflood of 1953 caused major damage, injuries, and deaths across #Scotland, #England, #Belgium, and #The Netherlands. It's even been labelled as one of the worst peacetime disasters of the 20th century. 307 people from #England perished, 19 in Scotland, 28 died in Belgium, 1,836 in the Netherlands, and a further 361 people perished at sea. From the sounds of it, he and others were very nearly swept to sea. Saved by the pub! 🍻🏆(Part 1)

This clip from 1977 shows various pubs in the area of #Laxfield, a small ancient village in northern #Suffolk, #England. He begins by discussing Sunday pub laws, which helps priests and vicar's avoid unruly congregations. The first pub is the Kings Head (Gorams Mill Ln, #Laxfield, #Woodbridge, #England, #IP13 (still trading) 🍻🤝

The greatest sights in #London are the parts that have been most left undisturbed.
