Damage to bakers WM Jackson and Son Limited in Bridlington 20th August 1940
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This poignant print captures the devastating aftermath of an air raid on a fateful day in Bridlington, England during World War Two. The year was 1940, and the Battle of Britain was raging on as bombs fell from the sky. In this particular image, we see the once bustling bakery shop of WM Jackson and Son Limited reduced to rubble. Its windows shattered, walls crumbled, and debris scattered across the streets. This haunting scene serves as a stark reminder of the immense destruction inflicted upon innocent civilians during wartime. The resilience of those living through such turbulent times is palpable in this photograph. Despite facing unimaginable hardships on the home front, people like those at WM Jackson and Son Limited continued to persevere amidst chaos. Their determination to rebuild their lives amid relentless bombings showcases their unwavering spirit. This snapshot also sheds light on Yorkshire's contribution to the war effort. As one of many towns targeted by enemy attacks during "The Blitz" it stands as a testament to both local communities' strength and solidarity throughout these dark days. As we reflect upon this powerful image from Memory Lane Prints, let us remember that behind every crumbling building lies stories untold – stories of bravery, sacrifice, and hope that define our shared history.
