EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 1960s, offering a mesmerizing aerial view of the Flyover in Cumbernauld, North Lanarkshire, Scotland. The date is specifically marked as the 22nd of December, 1965. This remarkable image showcases the town's development as a population overspill for Glasgow City. Cumbernauld was strategically created in 1956 to alleviate overcrowding in Glasgow by providing new housing options and opportunities for its residents. As we gaze upon this snapshot from above, we witness the impressive infrastructure that emerged during this era. The flyover stands tall amidst an intricate network of motorways and roads that crisscross through the landscape. The photograph transports us back to a time when progress was palpable and modernity was taking shape before our eyes. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and engineering prowess during this transformative period. With its sharp contrasts and striking composition, this Memory Lane Prints capture allows us to appreciate not only the physical structures but also their significance within Scottish history. It invites contemplation on how urban planning can shape communities while simultaneously preserving their unique character. As we delve into this visual time capsule provided by Sunday Mail's collection, let us marvel at how far Cumbernauld has come since its inception over six decades ago – evolving into a vibrant town with its own distinct identity within North Lanarkshire's tapestry.
