Taken in 2019 by talented photographer Emma Trevarthen, this image transports us back to the heart of Grimsby's rich fishing industry. The focal point of the photo is undoubtedly the iconic Grimsby Ice Factory, standing tall and proud against a backdrop of bustling docks and wharves. This historic building served as a vital hub for preserving freshly caught fish during its heyday. Its weathered exterior tells tales of countless fishermen who relied on its services to keep their catch fresh before it made its way to markets far and wide.
