EDITORS COMMENTS
Ancient and Modern - A Glimpse into Hull's Changing Landscape". This print captures a moment in time, transporting us back to the bustling city of Hull on April 17th, 1963. From a towering crane vantage point high above Anlaby Road, we are granted an extraordinary view of contrasting dwellings that bridge the gap between ancient history and modern progress. In this snapshot of post-war reconstruction, new flats are being erected amidst a sea of traditional terrace houses. The juxtaposition is striking; it symbolizes the transformation taking place in England during the mid-20th century. As coal fires still dot some rooftops, reminding us of bygone eras, these newly built flats represent hope for a brighter future. The Humber River serves as a picturesque backdrop to this evolving cityscape. Its serene presence adds depth and tranquility to an otherwise dynamic scene filled with construction activity. This image encapsulates not only architectural changes but also the spirit of resilience and adaptability that defines Hull's residents. As we delve deeper into this photograph from Memory Lane Prints, we find ourselves immersed in Yorkshire's rich history while witnessing its journey towards modernity. It serves as both a testament to progress and a reminder of our roots. Join us on this visual voyage through time as we explore how cities like Hull have evolved over decades – embracing change while honoring their heritage.
