EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the devastating aftermath of an air raid on St Michael and All Angels church in Waddington, Lincolnshire during World War Two. Taken on May 9th, 1941, the image showcases the immense destruction caused by German Luftwaffe bombers targeting a nearby RAF base. The once majestic church now stands in ruins, its walls crumbling and roof collapsed under the weight of relentless bombing. Surrounding it are remnants of what used to be homes - a chilling reminder of the toll war takes on innocent lives. A total of 19 houses in this peaceful village were destroyed that fateful night. The photograph serves as a poignant testament to the horrors experienced by communities caught in the crossfire during wartime. It symbolizes not only physical damage but also represents shattered hopes and dreams for those who worshiped within these sacred walls.
