This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to the bustling scene at Queens Dock in Cardiff on a crisp winter day in 1965. The image captures an important moment in the city's history, as it showcases the unloading of boxes filled with vibrant lemons imported all the way from Israel. The sheer magnitude of this operation is awe-inspiring. A massive cargo ship looms behind a busy dock, its towering presence a testament to international trade and commerce. Men can be seen diligently discharging box after box of lemons onto waiting trucks, their hard work ensuring that these precious fruits reach markets across Wales and beyond. The atmosphere is charged with energy as workers go about their tasks with precision and determination. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates the industrial prowess of Cardiff during this era, highlighting its significance as a major port city.
