EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in time at the Berkeley Nuclear Power Station construction site in Gloucestershire during the 1950s. In front of the Laing Mobile Office, we see Mrs Short, the Typist, and G A Cooke, the Office Manager, standing proudly. Berkeley Nuclear Power Station holds great historical significance as it was not only the first commercial nuclear power station in the United Kingdom but also one of Britain's earliest nuclear reactors. The project was undertaken by civil engineers Laing, with construction commencing on January 7th, 1957. The image showcases more than just an office; it offers a glimpse into life on this vast 57-acre site. Temporary housing and facilities were provided for workers who dedicated themselves to this groundbreaking project. The presence of a caravan-turned-office highlights both resourcefulness and adaptability amidst such ambitious endeavors. It symbolizes how innovation can thrive even within modest spaces. As we admire this photograph from Historic England Archive captured by A©, we are reminded of the remarkable progress made in nuclear energy during that era. This image serves as a testament to human ingenuity and determination as well as pays homage to those whose efforts paved the way for future advancements in clean energy production.
