EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in time at the British Library construction site in Greater London during the 1980s. Three men, clad in Draeger gas masks, participate in a safety course amidst the ongoing construction activities. The image serves as a reminder of the importance placed on health and safety measures during this period. Designed by renowned architect Colin St John Wilson, the British Library stands as an architectural marvel that took nearly two decades to complete. The construction was undertaken by John Laing Limited, a prominent contractor known for their expertise and precision. The men depicted in this photograph are engaged in training exercises related to handling hazardous materials or potential airborne contaminants. Their protective gear symbolizes both caution and preparedness within an industrial setting where risks may be present. Preserved within Historic England Archive's collection, this image offers us a glimpse into the past while highlighting the dedication towards ensuring worker well-being on construction sites.
