EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph captures the essence of industrial heritage in Chinley, Derbyshire. The focal point of the image is a majestic chimney rising proudly above the Forge Bleach Works. Standing tall against the backdrop of lush greenery, this towering structure serves as a testament to an era long gone. The intricate details and craftsmanship showcased in this print are truly remarkable. Every brick seems to tell a story, whispering tales of hard work and dedication that once filled these grounds. As we gaze upon this scene frozen in time, we can almost hear the rhythmic sounds of machinery humming within the walls of the mill. Dave MacLeod's keen eye for composition has allowed us to appreciate not only the grandeur of this chimney but also its surrounding landscape. The juxtaposition between nature and industry creates a striking contrast that evokes both awe and nostalgia. This photograph transports us back to 2013 when Chinley was still home to remnants of its industrial past. It serves as a reminder that progress often comes at a cost; yet it is through preserving such images that we can honor our history and learn from it. As we admire this print by Historic England, let us reflect on how far society has come while cherishing those who came before us - their labor etched into every brick standing tall against time's relentless march forward.
