Kielder Reservoir Kielder Water North East Northumberland 1976
17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 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 17x15 inches (431x381mm). 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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in this vintage photo print, we witness the tireless efforts of workers in the tunnel at Frosterley, a crucial part of the monumental Kielder Water Scheme. The year is 1976, and these four dedicated individuals - Henry Kimmel of Bishop Auckland, Eddie Colombeck of Munich, Barrie Liddle of Stanley near Crook, and James Emmerson of Stanhope - stand united as they embark on their arduous task. In an era defined by progress and innovation, this snapshot encapsulates the spirit of hard work that characterized the 1970s. These men exemplify determination and resilience as they toil away deep within the earth's core. Their commitment to constructing Kielder Reservoir is evident through their focused expressions and sweat-drenched brows. The Kielder Water Scheme itself was a remarkable feat for its time; it aimed to provide water supply security for North East England while harnessing hydroelectric power. This ambitious project not only transformed landscapes but also provided employment opportunities for countless individuals like our featured workers. As we gaze upon this image from Memory Lane Prints' collection, we are reminded of the unwavering dedication exhibited by those who labored tirelessly behind-the-scenes. Their contributions laid the foundation for future generations to benefit from clean water resources and sustainable energy solutions. Let us honor these unsung heroes whose hands shaped our landscape and propelled us towards a brighter future.
