EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in the construction of Berkeley Nuclear Power Station. In the depths of the south tunnel, a dedicated worker is seen carrying out guniting, also known as spraying concrete. The sheer determination and expertise displayed by this individual exemplify the immense effort required to bring such an ambitious project to life. The image, catalogued as part of the Breaking New Ground Project in partnership with the John Laing Charitable Trust in 2019-20, offers a glimpse into the remarkable history behind this iconic power station. Built in Berkeley, Gloucestershire, during the 1950s, it stands as a testament to human ingenuity and technological advancement. As we admire this photograph today, we are reminded of not only the physical labor involved but also of how nuclear power has shaped our world. It serves as a reminder that progress often comes at great cost and sacrifice. Historic England Archive has preserved this snapshot for future generations to appreciate and learn from. Let us reflect on both its historical significance and its timeless message about human achievement. This image transports us back in time while simultaneously inspiring us to continue pushing boundaries and breaking new ground ourselves – just like those who worked tirelessly on constructing Berkeley Nuclear Power Station all those years ago.
