EDITORS COMMENTS
. This haunting photograph captures the devastating aftermath of the Hull Blitz during World War II. Taken on November 28th, 1946, it showcases the skeletal remnants of Hammonds department store in Hull. The once bustling retail hub now stands as a stark symbol of the destructive power unleashed upon this historic city. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the relentless bombing campaign that ravaged Britain's urban centers during the conflict. The scars left by war are evident in every crumbling brick and shattered window pane captured within this frame.

This photograph is a testament to their unwavering spirit and determination to rebuild amidst unimaginable loss. It serves as a solemn tribute to all those affected by conflict - both civilians and servicemen alike - reminding us never to forget the sacrifices made for our freedom.
