EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to the enchanting Jesmond Dene in Newcastle on a serene day in March 1948. The focal point of this image is the iconic bridge, affectionately referred to as the "Eye Bridge" due to its unique design resembling an eye. However, it holds more than just architectural significance for young ladies who frequent this spot. The bridge serves a dual purpose - not only does it provide a picturesque view of the river and surrounding nature, but its curved arches also act as mirrors for these women. As they gracefully stroll along the bridge, they catch glimpses of their reflections, ensuring that every strand of hair is perfectly in place and their attire impeccable. After all, one never knows who they might encounter while exploring Jesmond Dene's tranquil beauty. In this snapshot frozen in time from the 1940s era, we witness how leisurely activities intertwine with practicality for these women. They embrace both relaxation and self-care amidst nature's splendor. This photograph encapsulates an era where bridges were not merely functional structures but held sentimental value and provided unexpected moments of reflection – both literally and metaphorically. Let this evocative image transport you back to simpler times when riverside strolls offered solace and chance encounters added excitement to everyday life.
