EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant photograph captures the devastating aftermath of an air raid during the Manchester Blitz of World War Two. The image showcases Salford Royal Hospital, a once bustling institution now reduced to rubble and ruins. Taken on 2nd June 1941, this snapshot serves as a haunting reminder of the destructive power unleashed upon innocent civilians during wartime. The hospital's original location on Chapel Street at the junction with Adelphi Street became a target for German bombs, resulting in unimaginable damage and loss.

In this picture print by Staff from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the forties - an era defined by conflict and resilience.
