Misspelt Sign - A Quirky Reminder of Middlesbrough's Past
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print from Teesside Archive takes us back to the 1980s, capturing a moment in time at South Bank Railway Station in Middlesbrough. The focal point of the image is an amusingly misspelt sign proudly displaying an extra 'O' in the name of this bustling industrial town. The photograph serves as a delightful reminder that even the most mundane aspects of our surroundings can hold unexpected surprises. In this case, a simple signage error has become a charming piece of local history, evoking memories and smiles from those who remember when. Transport enthusiasts and railway aficionados will appreciate this snapshot for its nostalgic value. It transports us back to an era when British Rail was still very much part of everyday life, with trains chugging along tracks and stations serving as vital hubs connecting communities across the country. Beyond its historical significance, this image also highlights how signs play an essential role in our daily lives. They guide us, inform us, and occasionally entertain us with their quirks. This particular misspelling adds character to South Bank Railway Station while reminding us that perfection isn't always necessary for something to be cherished. Teesside Archive's Memory Lane Prints collection beautifully captures these moments frozen in time—reminders that there is beauty even in imperfection—and invites viewers to reflect on their own memories and connections to places like Middlesbrough during the vibrant 1980s
