Stockton Market, Stockton High Street. Just 6 stall holders out of a normal 180, believed to be the worst turnout for 25 years, decided to brave the cold weather for today's market, 14th January 1987. This print from Teesside Archive takes us back to the bustling streets of Stockton in the 1980s. The image captures a scene that is both nostalgic and poignant - an empty market square covered in a blanket of snow. The usually vibrant stalls are noticeably absent, leaving only six determined vendors who refused to let the harsh weather dampen their spirits. This snapshot serves as a reminder of the resilience and determination found within local communities during challenging times. Despite facing adverse conditions and dwindling numbers, these stallholders showcased their unwavering commitment to serving their customers and supporting their town's economy. The desolate atmosphere evokes mixed emotions; it portrays both a sense of loss for what once was and admiration for those few individuals who braved the elements. It prompts us to reflect on how our surroundings can change drastically over time but also highlights that even in difficult circumstances, there are always individuals willing to persevere. Teesside Archive has preserved this moment frozen in time so we can appreciate not only its historical significance but also gain insight into how communities come together during adversity.
