Serles Place - A Glimpse into the Vanished City of London (1881)
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to a bygone era, capturing the essence of Serles Place in the heart of the City of London. The image, captured in 1881 by an unknown creator, showcases this historic avenue shortly before its demolition to make way for the iconic Royal Courts of Justice. The photograph is a testament to British architectural heritage, showcasing the grandeur and elegance that once adorned these streets. With its towering buildings and intricate facades, Serles Place stands as a symbol of Victorian England's urban landscape. Edward Walford's publication "Old and New London: A Narrative of Its History, Its People, and Its Places" immortalizes this lost gem within its pages. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth to this snapshot from another time – a visual reminder that history lives on through images like these. As we gaze upon this scene frozen in time, we can't help but wonder about the bustling activity that once filled these streets. What stories unfolded within these walls? Who were those who walked along Shire Lane before it transformed into Serles Place? Thanks to The Print Collector's preservation efforts at Heritage Images, we are granted access to relive moments long past. This evocative print serves as both a tribute to our architectural heritage and an invitation for future generations to explore their roots amidst the ever-changing cityscape.
