EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history at the Horrockses, Crewdson & Co. Centenary Cotton Mills in Preston, Lancashire in 1925. The image shows traffic passing by as the smoking chimneys of the factory illuminate the rainy Lancashire sky. The industrial landscape is a testament to England's rich history of cotton production and industry.
The scene is filled with nostalgia for a bygone era when factories like Horrockses, Crewdson & Co. were at the forefront of manufacturing in Lancashire. The illuminated windows of the mill add a sense of warmth and activity to the otherwise dreary weather outside.
The towering chimneys billowing smoke serve as a reminder of the hard work and dedication that went into running such an operation during this time period. The photograph beautifully encapsulates both the beauty and grittiness of industrial England in the early 20th century.
As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, we are transported back to a time when cotton mills dominated the landscape and played a crucial role in shaping communities like Preston. It serves as a visual reminder of our past and how far we have come since then.
