EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of the Kings Head public house on Hagley Road in Bearwood, Birmingham, West Midlands, circa 1908. The Edwardian-era image transports us to a bygone era, showcasing the charm and character of this historic pub. The Kings Head, with its distinctive Tudor-style design, proudly stands at the corner of the bustling Hagley Road. The intricate half-timbered facade, adorned with ornate carvings and decorative beams, is a testament to the craftsmanship of the past. The pub's name, emblazoned on a wooden sign above the entrance, invites passersby to enter and enjoy a warm welcome. The scene is further enhanced by the presence of a grand clock, perched high above the pub, keeping perfect time for the community. The clock, with its intricate Roman numerals and ornate detailing, adds a sense of order and tradition to the image. A bustling crowd of people can be seen gathered on the pavement outside the pub, engaged in animated conversation or simply enjoying the sunshine. The tree-lined street, with its lush foliage and vibrant colors, adds a sense of tranquility and beauty to the scene. In the background, a bus terminus can be seen, with several buses waiting to transport passengers to their destinations. The image captures the essence of transport in the early 20th century, with horse-drawn carriages and motorized buses coexisting on the same road. This photograph is an invaluable record of life in Birmingham during the Edwardian era, offering a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the rich history and character of this vibrant city.
