EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print of Caledonian Market, nestled just off the bustling Caledonian Road in Islington, London. Built by the esteemed City of London Corporation and inaugurated in June 1855 by none other than Prince Albert himself, this historic market has witnessed countless stories unfold within its walls. Taken during the somber era of July 1946, this photograph captures a haunting scene. The once vibrant marketplace now stands deserted and empty, a stark reminder of the challenges faced by inner boroughs like Islington during the tumultuous 1940s. Barbed wire coils around the perimeter as a testament to wartime security measures that were still fresh on people's minds. The prominent clock tower looms over the desolate landscape, silently marking time amidst an absence of activity. This listed structure serves as a symbol of resilience and endurance for both locals and visitors alike. Once known for its lively meat market stalls teeming with vendors and customers haggling over prices, today it is devoid of any signs of life or commerce. Yet through George Greenwell's lens, we are transported back to an era when Caledonian Market thrived as one of London's most significant urban trading hubs. This evocative print from Memory Lane Prints allows us to reflect upon our city's rich history while reminding us that even in times past characterized by emptiness; hope always finds its way back into these streets.
