EDITORS COMMENTS
The 350,000 gallon Emergency Water Supply tank in Mount Pleasant, Liverpool stands as a testament to the resilience and determination of the city during World War II. This print captures a pivotal moment in history on September 26th, 1943. The Liverpool corporation can be seen tirelessly removing an astounding 150 tons of rubble that had been callously thrown into the tank by mischievous children. In this snapshot from the forties, we witness the aftermath of war and conflict on the home front. As bombs rained down upon Liverpool, causing extensive damage to infrastructure and disrupting essential services like water supply, emergency measures such as this colossal storage tank were put in place to ensure survival. Val's photograph not only showcases the scale of destruction but also highlights how local authorities like EWS (Emergency Water Services) played a crucial role in restoring normalcy amidst chaos. It serves as a reminder of both human strength and unity during times of adversity. This image is more than just a historical artifact; it symbolizes hope and resilience for future generations. Let us remember those who worked tirelessly behind-the-scenes to rebuild their communities while facing unimaginable challenges.
