EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white aerial photograph, titled "Kingston upon Hull EAW004505" takes us back in time to the bustling maritime city of Kingston upon Hull in 1947. The image, captured by Aerofilms Ltd, showcases the magnificent Alexandra Dock and its surrounding environs from a unique western perspective. As we gaze at this remarkable snapshot frozen in history, our eyes are immediately drawn to the sprawling dockyard below. The intricate network of docks and quays stretches out like veins across the landscape, revealing an industrious hub that once played a vital role in Britain's maritime heritage. Ships of all sizes dot the waterways, their masts standing tall against the backdrop of towering cranes and warehouses. The photo exudes a sense of energy and activity as workers scurry about on land while vessels navigate through narrow channels with precision. It is evident that this port was alive with commerce and trade during this era. Beyond the dockyard lies an urban tapestry woven with rows of houses, streets lined with cars, and buildings reaching for the sky. This glimpse into post-war England offers a poignant reminder of resilience amidst adversity. Preserved within Historic England Archive's collection, this print captures not only a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to Kingston upon Hull's rich maritime past. It invites us to reflect on how cities evolve over time while honoring their historical roots—a visual treasure connecting us to our collective heritage.
