Sam Cullen's new book, "London's Lost Pubs," documents over 200 pubs that have closed in the capital, preserving their stories and rich cultural history.
Cullen emphasizes that pubs reflect social history and culture, stating, "Pubs can tell you so much about social and cultural history. This book is a celebration of these venues."
The Grave Maurice was a popular spot for The Kray twins, embodying the colorful history of the pubs that once thrived, alongside cultural figures like Dickens.
Among the oldest explored is The Black Horse, opened in 1807, surviving various historical events and symbolizing the enduring legacy of London's social venues.
