EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the construction of the iconic Queensway Tunnel in Liverpool, Merseyside during the 1920s. The image showcases a group of dedicated workmen standing beneath an experimental length of reinforced concrete that would eventually form the roadway. Their presence emphasizes both their crucial role and the immense scale of this engineering feat. The partially constructed tunnel provides a glimpse into the intricate network hidden beneath our feet. As we observe these individuals amidst their laborious task, we are reminded of their unwavering commitment to progress and innovation.

The inclusion of "Experimental Length of Reinforced Concrete" further highlights the pioneering nature of this endeavor, pushing boundaries in underground construction techniques. Stewart Bale Limited has expertly captured not just a snapshot frozen in time but also an enduring testament to human ingenuity and determination. This photograph serves as a reminder that great achievements often require collective effort and perseverance.
