EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to the 1970s, offering a glimpse into the industrial landscape of East Cleveland. The image showcases a general view of the cooling towers at ICI (Imperial Chemical Industries) in Wilton on August 11th, 1977. These towering structures stand tall against the backdrop of North Yorkshire's picturesque scenery. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of Britain's thriving chemical industry during that era. ICI was renowned for its manufacturing prowess and played a significant role in shaping Teesside's economy. However, it also brings attention to the environmental challenges faced by such industries. While this snapshot captures an impressive sight, it cannot be ignored that pollution was an unfortunate consequence of these manufacturing processes. The billowing smoke emerging from the cooling towers hints at the impact on air quality and surrounding ecosystems. Nonetheless, this print allows us to reflect upon our industrial heritage and how far we have come in terms of environmental consciousness since then. It serves as both a historical record and a catalyst for conversations about sustainable practices within industry today. Mirrorpix has expertly preserved this moment in time through their collection, providing viewers with an opportunity to appreciate not only the visual aesthetics but also ponder upon important societal issues tied to industrialization and its consequences on our environment.
