Berkshire Building Site Development Digger Machinery Road Rubble 1968


23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame

FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

Development of the new Ring Road in Reading Town Centre, Berkshire. 15th August 1968

EDITORS COMMENTS
. Step back in time to witness the transformation of Reading's bustling town center with this print from Memory Lane Prints. Taken on a sunny day in August 1968, it captures the monumental development project that would shape the city's future for decades to come. In this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to a building site teeming with activity. Heavy machinery and diggers dominate the scene as they tirelessly carve through layers of earth and rubble, paving the way for what would soon become an essential transportation artery - The Ring Road. The image showcases not just physical progress but also symbolizes a significant milestone in urban planning during the mid-20th century. As construction workers diligently work amidst clouds of dust and debris, their efforts lay down foundations for improved connectivity and accessibility within Reading's ever-expanding boundaries. This photograph serves as a testament to human ingenuity and determination as it immortalizes an era when infrastructure projects were undertaken with unwavering ambition. It offers viewers a glimpse into history while highlighting how towns like Reading evolved over time. So take a journey back to yesteryears by owning this remarkable piece of nostalgia captured by DJ from Memory Lane Prints – an extraordinary visual reminder of how progress shapes our cities and communities.
