EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Cannon Street, Middlesbrough, 21st June 1972" takes us back to a bygone era. The image captures the essence of the 1970s in an area marked by poverty and neglect. Rows of rundown houses line Cannon Street, their worn-out bricks telling tales of hardship and struggle. In this desolate setting, a child can be seen playing amidst the derelict homes. Their innocence juxtaposed against the backdrop of deprivation serves as a poignant reminder of the resilience that exists even in the harshest circumstances. The image transports us to Middlesbrough on that summer day in 1972 when life was tough for many residents. It offers a glimpse into an era where economic downturn had left its mark on communities like these. Teesside Archive's attention to detail is evident in this powerful photograph. Through their lens, they have captured not just buildings but also emotions - capturing both despair and hope within one frame. As we reflect upon this snapshot from history, it reminds us of how far society has come since then. It serves as a testament to our collective efforts towards progress and renewal while acknowledging that there is still work to be done to ensure no one lives in such conditions today. Memory Lane Prints allows us to preserve moments like these so that future generations can understand our past struggles and triumphs alike.
