EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to a significant moment in history - the demolition of St Peters Church in Newcastle during the summer of 1938. As we gaze upon this powerful image, we are transported to a time when religion and progress collided. The photograph captures an eerie scene as workers armed with hammers dismantle the once majestic church brick by brick. The towering spire that once reached towards the heavens now lies broken on the ground. It is a poignant reminder of how even sacred spaces can succumb to change. Intriguingly, amidst this destruction stands a motor truck and van - symbols of modernity juxtaposed against tradition. They serve as witnesses to an era where society was rapidly evolving and old structures were making way for new developments. One cannot help but ponder about the emotions felt by those who witnessed this event firsthand; perhaps sadness at losing a cherished place of worship or excitement for what would come next in its place. As we reflect on this evocative image captured by Staff from Memory Lane Prints, it reminds us that history is not just made up of grand events but also encompasses everyday moments like these - moments that shape our cities and communities forever.
