EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Dereliction along the quayside in Newcastle" takes us back to the 1980s, offering a glimpse into a forgotten era of urban decay and resilience. The focal point of this image is the Golden Lion pub, standing proudly amidst its dilapidated surroundings. Its weathered facade tells stories of lively conversations, laughter, and shared memories that once filled its walls. The juxtaposition between the pub and the neighboring allotments and pigeon lofts adds an intriguing layer to this scene. While neglect seems to have taken hold of many structures in this cityscape, these small pockets of greenery symbolize hope and determination. Perhaps they serve as reminders that even in times of decline, life continues to flourish. The composition evokes a sense of nostalgia for those who remember Newcastle during this period. It serves as a reminder that cities are ever-evolving entities with their own unique histories etched into every brick and cobblestone. Captured by NCJ on October 20th, 1980, this photograph invites us to reflect on our collective past while appreciating the beauty found within dereliction. It reminds us that even amid abandonment and decay, there is still room for discovery and appreciation – both for what was lost and what remains resiliently intact.
