EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking aerial photograph, taken by Aerofilms Ltd in June 1933, captures the picturesque harbor and environs of Whitehaven, Cumbria, as it looked over eighty years ago. The image offers a unique bird's-eye view of the historic port town, with its intricate network of docks and quays jutting out into the Irish Sea. The harbor, once a thriving center for the coal and copper industries, is framed by the rugged coastline and the undulating hills of the Lake District in the distance. Whitehaven's rich maritime history is evident in the photograph, with numerous ships anchored in the harbor, their sails furled or masts at rest. The town's industrial past is also on display, with the coal docks and their distinctive chimneys dominating the scene. The image also reveals the town's residential areas, with their neatly arranged rows of terraced houses and gardens, providing a stark contrast to the bustling harbor activity below. The photograph is a testament to the town's enduring charm and resilience, as it continues to thrive as a popular tourist destination and working port. Today, visitors can explore the town's historic maritime sites, including the historic harbor, the Rum Story Museum, and the Whitehaven Maritime Heritage Centre. The photograph also serves as a reminder of the town's rich history and its role in shaping the region's economy and identity.
