EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 1930s, specifically to May 2nd, 1933, in Stanley, County Durham. The image showcases Oakeys Cottages, a significant part of Stanley Council's ambitious £100,000 slum clearance scheme. These humble cottages stand as a stark reminder of the poverty-stricken conditions that plagued this era. The photograph transports us into a world devoid of life; there are no people present within its frame. Instead, it focuses solely on the dilapidated cottages themselves. Their worn-out exteriors tell tales of hardship and struggle endured by their former inhabitants. Despite their desolate appearance, these cottages were once called "home" by countless families who battled against poverty daily. This snapshot serves as an important historical record depicting the housing crisis faced during this time period. Memory Lane Prints has expertly captured this poignant moment in history through their meticulous restoration and reproduction process. By preserving such images from our past, they allow us to reflect upon how far we have come in terms of improving living conditions for all. As we gaze at this haunting photograph today, let it serve as a reminder that progress is not always linear but rather born out of collective efforts to uplift those most vulnerable among us.
