This evocative photograph, captured by Robin Dale in the 1970s, offers a captivating glimpse into the industrial past of Stockton-on-Tees in the North East of England. The image showcases the Browns Foundry, a prominent coal-fuelled ironworks that once formed the backbone of the region's heavy industry. 3. The photograph transports us back in time, with its monochrome palette and the heavy, textured smoke that blankets the sky.

This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the past, offering a glimpse into a time when industry and hard work shaped the landscape and the lives of the people in this region. 7.
