Workers Going Home
EDITORS COMMENTS

The image offers a poignant glimpse into the social history of the working class during this era. The photograph captures a bustling scene of workers exiting the GWR works at Wolverton, each carrying their belongings or pushing prams, their faces reflecting a mix of exhaustion and relief as they head towards their homes. The image is a testament to the daily grind of the working class during this period, highlighting the importance of the mid-day dinner break as a crucial moment of respite from the rigors of industrial labor.

The image offers a snapshot of the rich social fabric of the community, providing a fascinating insight into the lives of the working class during this period. The "Workers Going Home" photograph is an essential addition to any collection of historical images documenting the social history of Britain during the 20th century.
