EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the devastating floods that struck Cheshire in 1872, specifically Northwich. The streets of this historical town are completely inundated, with water levels so high that boats - including a sailing boat! - have become the primary mode of transportation for rescuing people from their homes.
In this remarkable scene, we see brave individuals being evacuated on piggy-back through the flooded streets as others are taken to safety by boat. The resilience and resourcefulness of the community during such a natural disaster is truly inspiring.
The image serves as a powerful reminder of the unpredictable forces of nature and how they can impact our lives in an instant. It also highlights the importance of coming together as a community to support one another in times of crisis.
Through this snapshot from history, we gain insight into the challenges faced by those living in Cheshire over a century ago and appreciate how far we have come in terms of disaster preparedness and response. Mary Evans Picture Library has preserved this moment for us to reflect upon and learn from, showcasing both the strength and vulnerability of humanity when faced with natural phenomena like flooding.
