EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic Preston Bus Station, a true testament to the architectural brilliance of the brutalist style. Captured by Alun Bull in June 2011, this image beautifully captures the west elevation of the bus station illuminated at dusk, creating an enchanting atmosphere. The concrete structure stands tall and proud, embodying the post-war era's desire for functional yet striking design. Listed as Grade II by Historic England, this architectural gem holds immense historical significance. Its imposing presence and unique design have made it a beloved landmark in Preston. The photograph perfectly encapsulates its grandeur as buses gracefully occupy their designated bays within the station. The play of light and shadows adds depth to this composition, highlighting both the strength and elegance inherent in brutalist architecture. Alun Bull's keen eye has expertly captured not only a moment frozen in time but also an enduring symbol of urban development. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are transported back to a time when bold experimentation with materials such as concrete defined our built environment. This photograph serves as a reminder that even amidst progress and change, there is value in preserving structures that hold cultural significance. Alun Bull's photographic prowess allows us to appreciate not just buildings themselves but also their ability to shape our collective memory and understanding of history.
