EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a significant moment in history - the opening of the Plumbers Museum in the ancient Morden Tower, Newcastle. It was a bustling day on September 13th, 1932, as locals eagerly gathered to witness this landmark event. The Lord Mayor himself, Coun. J. G. Nixon, can be seen proudly cutting the ribbon and officially launching this unique museum. The image showcases not only the historical significance of this occasion but also provides a glimpse into life in Newcastle during the 1930s. People from all walks of life patiently queue outside the tower, showcasing their enthusiasm for trade and craftsmanship. The Morden Tower itself stands tall and majestic behind them, its weathered stones telling stories of centuries past. This iconic structure has witnessed countless events throughout its existence and now adds another chapter to its rich history with the inauguration of this specialized museum. As we delve into our memories through this remarkable photograph, we are reminded that even seemingly mundane professions like plumbing have played an integral role in shaping society over time. This print serves as a testament to both human ingenuity and our collective desire to preserve our heritage. Staff at Memory Lane Prints have expertly captured this snapshot from yesteryear, allowing us to immerse ourselves in an era long gone but forever etched within these frames.
