EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the end of an era in Billingham, County Durham. The image showcases the iconic ICI CCF plant on Haverton Hill Road, standing tall against a backdrop of industrial prowess. Taken on April 30th, 1993, this photograph immortalizes the moment when this symbol of British manufacturing and chemical industry began its journey towards demolition. The sheer magnitude of the plant is awe-inspiring; it dominates the landscape with its imposing structure next to A19 and Portrack Lane. Its significance cannot be understated as it represents decades of innovation and economic growth in the North East region. Ian McIntyre's lens perfectly encapsulates both the grandeur and melancholy surrounding this scene. The faded colors evoke nostalgia for a bygone era while simultaneously reminding us that progress often comes at a cost. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded not only of ICI's legacy but also of Stockton-on-Tees' rich industrial history. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder that change is inevitable, even for giants like Imperial Chemical Industries. Without mentioning commercial use or delving into corporate details, McIntyre's photo allows us to reflect on how industries shape our communities and leave lasting imprints on our landscapes. It invites viewers to contemplate how these structures become woven into our collective memory before eventually fading away like ghosts from another time.
