EDITORS COMMENTS

This print captures a significant moment in history - the demolition of the old paper mill at Shoreham, Kent. Taken on 10th February 1936 by renowned photographer John Topham, this image showcases the sheer power and determination of workmen as they bring down the once towering structure. In the foreground stands a sturdy Bedford lorry, serving as a symbol of industrial progress during the interwar period. Its presence adds an element of scale to this scene of destruction, highlighting just how colossal and imposing this paper mill must have been. The debris and rubble scattered around tell tales of hard labor and relentless effort put forth by these workers. Bricks lay strewn across the ground while clouds of dust rise into the air, creating an atmosphere filled with both chaos and purpose. A majestic river flows calmly in the background, providing a stark contrast to the chaotic scene unfolding before it. The chimney stack still standing tall amidst all this destruction serves as a reminder of what once was - an integral part of Shoreham's industrial heritage now being dismantled piece by piece. This photograph is not only a visual representation but also serves as a historical document capturing an era marked by immense change and progress. It transports us back to Europe between wars when nations were rebuilding themselves from scratch after World War I had ravaged their lands.
