EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1970s in Brandling Park, Jesmond, Newcastle. The image captures a significant moment in time as workmen diligently open up the road for the laying of new gas pipes. This crucial preparation is essential before commencing construction on the new motorway that was set to transform the area. The scene is filled with activity and industry as three men, their ages unknown but undoubtedly experienced in their trade, can be seen working tirelessly amidst a backdrop of debris and digging equipment. Clad in wellington boots and donning rugged attire suitable for such laborious tasks, they embody determination and resilience. The photograph not only showcases the physical effort involved but also highlights the importance of infrastructure development during this era. The presence of several cars parked nearby serves as a reminder of how progress impacts everyday life. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, it evokes a sense of admiration for these unsung heroes who played an integral role in shaping our modern world. Their commitment to ensuring reliable gas supply while paving the way for improved transportation networks deserves recognition. This remarkable image by NCJ allows us to reflect upon our collective history and appreciate those who dedicated themselves to building better communities.
