EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to a fateful day in June 1977, when flames engulfed the A & H Ltd Clothing Factory on King Street, near Glasgow Cross. The image captures the intensity of the fire that ravaged this four-storey building, leaving behind nothing but charred remnants of what was once a bustling hub of textile production. In this powerful snapshot, we witness the heroic efforts of the fire brigade as they valiantly battle against the inferno. Firemen can be seen fearlessly navigating through billowing smoke and debris, their determined faces etched with determination. The presence of a fire engine parked nearby serves as a reminder of their unwavering commitment to protecting lives and property. The image evokes both awe and sadness as it encapsulates not only the destructive force unleashed upon this historic clothing factory but also pays homage to those who risked their lives in extinguishing its wrath. It serves as a poignant reminder of how quickly life can change and how communities come together in times of crisis. As we gaze at this photograph, we are transported back to an era where manufacturing industries thrived amidst adversity. It stands as a testament to Scotland's resilience and highlights the significance these factories held within local economies during that time. Memory Lane Prints has masterfully preserved this moment in history for future generations to reflect upon - an enduring tribute to both human courage and our ability to rebuild from ashes.
