EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the aftermath of a significant historical event - the V2 Rocket incident at Noel Park Estate, Gladstone terrace in Wood Green. Taken on 13th February 1945 during the height of World War II, this image serves as a stark reminder of the devastating impact that conflict can have on civilian life. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness the destruction caused by an air raid. The once peaceful neighborhood now lies in ruins, with buildings reduced to rubble and debris scattered across the streets. Emergency services and firemen are seen tirelessly working amidst the chaos, their brave efforts evident as they battle against flames and attempt to restore order. The V2 Rocket was one of Hitler's most destructive weapons during World War II. Its arrival brought terror from above, leaving communities shattered and lives forever changed. This photograph encapsulates not only the physical damage inflicted but also highlights the resilience and bravery displayed by those who fought to protect their homes and loved ones. Preserved by George Greenwell through his lens, this poignant image offers us a glimpse into history - a testament to both human suffering and strength in times of adversity. It serves as a powerful reminder that war leaves no corner untouched; it is our duty to remember these stories so that we may strive for peace in our present day and future generations.
