EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the iconic Five Lamps landmark in Thornaby on June 10th, 1983. The replica stands proudly just a stone's throw away from where the original Victorian version once stood, serving as a gathering place for townsfolk. Crafted by skilled apprentices at the nearby Head Wrightson foundry, this remarkable 11,000-pound replica is a testament to their craftsmanship and dedication. Now located near the Queens Social Club, these new lamps hold great significance for Stockton historian Tom Sowler, who can be seen in the picture. As an expert on local history, he understands the importance of preserving landmarks that hold sentimental value to communities. The image takes us back to the vibrant atmosphere of Thornaby in the 1980s when buildings and structures like these were cherished symbols of identity and pride. It serves as a reminder of how our surroundings shape our memories and evoke nostalgia for times gone by. Memory Lane Prints brings this nostalgic moment back to life through their collection of photographs capturing significant moments in Teesside's history. This particular print showcases not only architectural beauty but also highlights community spirit and craftsmanship that have made Thornaby such a special place throughout time.
