This was probably a record not only for the North but for the whole country. The staff, which included eight women and two ex-soldiers who were at Dunkirk, were working as never before in order to do their bit in helping the country. In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we witness an extraordinary moment during the height of World War Two.

Their tireless efforts resulted in an astounding achievement – producing an unprecedented 200,000 bricks within just 48 hours. The photograph captures the essence of resilience and unity that defined this era. Amongst these determined individuals are eight remarkable women who defied societal norms to contribute to the war effort alongside two brave ex-soldiers who had experienced firsthand the horrors of Dunkirk.

This poignant snapshot serves as a testament to both human ingenuity and collective spirit during one of history's darkest chapters. It stands as a reminder that
