EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of road widening works taking place in the picturesque town of Brixham, Devon, in 1956. The scene unfolds on Middle Street, where a team of dedicated workers, dressed in high-visibility vests and hard hats, are diligently expanding the road's width. At the heart of the action, an Albion lorry, a common sight on British roads during the 1950s, stands proudly, its emblem prominently displayed on the side. The lorry's powerful engine no doubt played a crucial role in transporting essential construction materials to the site. In the foreground, a mechanical digger, a symbol of progress and modernization, is hard at work, its metal arms digging into the earth as it prepares to move yet more soil and debris to the side. The workers, their faces etched with determination and focus, are making way for a more spacious and efficient road network. The historical context of this photograph is further emphasized by the presence of Calor gas cylinders, which were a common sight during the 1950s. The gas was used to fuel various appliances, including heaters and cooking stoves, making life more comfortable for residents and businesses alike. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the determination and hard work that went into improving the infrastructure of our towns and cities during the 1950s. The combination of traditional and modern methods, as well as the dedication of the workforce, make this an image that is sure to captivate and inspire.
