EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial view captures the transformation of Hull's landscape, as the old clock tower that once served as a prominent landmark is replaced by the striking new Riverside Quay. Standing in sharp contrast to its older surroundings, this print showcases the progress and modernization taking place in 1950s England. Scheduled to be operational by 1959, the quay can be seen adorned with transit sheds and a passenger terminal. These new facilities are a testament to Hull's resilience after enduring the devastating destruction caused by The Hull Blitz of 1941. As cargo ships dotting the Humber Estuary await their turn at these state-of-the-art lock gates, it becomes evident that shipping and transport play pivotal roles in this bustling industrial hub. The warehouses lining the quay further emphasize Yorkshire's significance as an economic powerhouse during this era. This image serves not only as a historical record but also highlights how United Kingdom's maritime industry thrived amidst changing times. Preserved through Memory Lane Prints, this photograph offers us a glimpse into an important chapter of Hull's history. It reminds us of both past hardships and future aspirations while celebrating progress and development along England's eastern coast.
