EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the year 1983 in Linthorpe, North Yorkshire. The image showcases a remarkable moment of resilience and determination as Alan Finney, the owner of K Centre shop, valiantly battles against the forces of nature. As floodwaters engulf his beloved shop, Alan can be seen fearlessly wading through knee-deep water with a broom in hand. With unwavering resolve etched on his face, he tirelessly works to bail out water from his establishment. This snapshot captures not only the physical struggle but also the indomitable spirit that defines communities facing adversity. The heavy rain pouring down upon him serves as a reminder of Mother Nature's power and unpredictability. Yet amidst this chaos, Alan stands alone – an embodiment of strength and perseverance. Clad in Wellington boots that protect him from the treacherous waters below, he becomes a symbol of hope for all those affected by this natural disaster. This photograph is more than just a documentation of a flood; it encapsulates an era marked by resilience and community spirit. It transports us back to an England where individuals like Alan Finney were willing to go above and beyond to salvage what they held dear. Through this poignant image captured by Staff at Memory Lane Prints, we are reminded that even in times of crisis, there will always be heroes who rise above circumstances – ordinary people doing extraordinary things for their communities.
