1876 Coaching Demolished Pubs Southwark Tabard Talbot Tavern Wagon
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this 19th century photograph of the Old Tabard Inn, located in the heart of Southwark, London. This historic tavern, also known as The Talbot Inn, was a popular coaching stop during the era of horse-drawn wagons and stagecoaches. The Old Tabard Inn played an essential role in the daily lives of travelers, offering weary guests a place to rest, enjoy a hearty meal, and perhaps a refreshing drink after a long journey. The Old Tabard Inn, with its distinctive red-brick facade and large, inviting sign, exudes a sense of warmth and hospitality. The image captures the bustling activity of the inn, with people milling about in the foreground and a horse-drawn wagon parked out front. The scene is a testament to the importance of such establishments during the coaching century, providing not only essential services but also a sense of community and connection. Unfortunately, the Old Tabard Inn, like many historic buildings of its time, did not survive the passage of time. It was demolished in 1876, leaving behind only memories and photographs like this one. Today, the site where the Old Tabard Inn once stood is a reminder of the rich history of Southwark and the important role that taverns and inns played in the daily lives of people during the 19th century.
