EDITORS COMMENTS
The Demolition of the Fertiliser Plant on ICI Billingham Site - A Momentous Day in Industrial History In this print captured by B Robson, we are transported back to the 23rd of June 1993, witnessing a significant event unfold. The image showcases the demolition of the iconic Fertiliser Plant on the ICI Billingham site, located in County Durham, North East England. As one gazes at this remarkable scene frozen in time, it is impossible not to feel a sense of awe and admiration for the sheer magnitude and power displayed during this industrial feat. The once bustling manufacturing hub now stands silent and still as clouds of dust rise into the air, symbolizing an end to an era. The significance of this moment extends beyond mere bricks and mortar; it represents a turning point in British chemical industry history. For decades, Imperial Chemical Industries (ICI) had been synonymous with innovation and progress within Teesside's industrial landscape. However, as times changed and economic factors shifted, so did the fate of these colossal structures. This photograph also serves as a reminder of how communities adapt and evolve over time. It captures not only physical destruction but also resilience and transformation. As police officers stand guard amidst debris from what was once a thriving center for employment and production, they bear witness to both an ending and new beginnings. B Robson's masterful composition allows us to reflect upon our shared past while contemplating future possibilities – reminding us that even amid change
