EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling River Tyne in the 1950s. Standing tall and proud is the magnificent tanker Thamesfield, a true testament to the craftsmanship of Hawthorn Leslie Shipbuilders Limited in Hebburn. This colossal vessel, weighing an impressive 32,000 tons, was built exclusively for Tyne owners - a symbol of local pride and industry. The scene is alive with activity as tugboats gracefully maneuver around the Thamesfield, their powerful engines emitting plumes of smoke that blend with the misty backdrop. The river itself seems to come alive as ships of various sizes dot its surface, creating a mesmerizing display of maritime transport. As we gaze upon this photograph from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back in time to an era when shipbuilding was at its peak on the River Tyne. It serves as a poignant reminder of Newcastle's rich history as a hub for shipping and trade. Let this image evoke memories of bygone days when these mighty vessels dominated our waterways and fueled economic growth. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, let us appreciate not only the engineering marvels before us but also those who dedicated their lives to shaping our industrial heritage.
