Dating back to 1925, this stunning piece was meticulously crafted by W E Wooley of Accrington and can be found in Stanley Park, Lancashire. The photograph, skillfully taken by Peter Williams for Historic England, showcases the remarkable details and craftsmanship that went into its creation. The opercula design featured on this iron cover is nothing short of mesmerizing. Its symmetrical patterns and delicate curves evoke a sense of elegance and sophistication. As one gazes upon it, they are transported back to an era where even functional objects were treated as works of art. The age-old charm emanating from this photograph reminds us of the rich history embedded within our surroundings. It serves as a reminder that there is beauty to be found in unexpected places - even in something as seemingly mundane as a sewer inspection cover plate. Peter Williams' keen eye for detail has allowed us to appreciate the artistic value hidden within everyday objects.
