The White Hart Hotel
circa 1910
This beautifully preserved photograph captures a bustling scene outside the White Hart Hotel around 1910, looking out onto the quay in Burnham-on-Crouch, a historic sailing town on the Essex coast. The image shows a vibrant riverside street with horse-drawn carriages, well-dressed guests, and children playing near the water’s edge.
The White Hart, with its ivy-covered façade and decorative signage, was a focal point for travellers and townsfolk alike — a place to stay, dine, and socialise along the River Crouch. On the right, moored sailboats speak to Burnham’s proud maritime tradition, still alive today.
📸 This photo is more than a postcard — it’s a window into the soul of a seafaring town at the dawn of the 20th century.
