This print titled "Children kids playing cricket in the back lane street in Newcastle 1962 - Children playing in the slums" takes us on a nostalgic journey to the vibrant streets of Newcastle during the early 1960s. The image beautifully captures a group of children engrossed in a game of cricket, their youthful energy and enthusiasm evident as they play amidst the backdrop of humble back lanes. In this snapshot from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported to an era where childhood was defined by simple pleasures and imaginative games. These youngsters find solace and joy within their tight-knit community, transforming narrow alleyways into their very own cricket pitch. Their resourcefulness shines through as they utilize whatever materials they can gather to create makeshift wickets and bats. The photograph not only showcases innocent camaraderie but also sheds light on the harsh realities faced by these children growing up in impoverished slums. Despite their challenging circumstances, these resilient souls find solace and unity through sport, transcending societal barriers that may otherwise divide them. As we gaze upon this poignant image captured by NCJ, we are reminded of the power of play and its ability to transcend adversity. It serves as a testament to the indomitable spirit found within every child – an unwavering determination to make the most out of any situation life presents them with. This evocative photograph is not just a window into history; it is an ode to resilience, community bonds, and cherished memories etched forever on Newcastle's
