EDITORS COMMENTS
The remains of an ammunition truck struck by a bomb in the goods yard of Bridlington Station on July 11th, 1940. This powerful image captures the devastating impact of the air raids during World War II on the home front in England. The Battle of Britain was raging, and this scene serves as a haunting reminder of the relentless bombing campaign carried out by enemy forces. In this photograph, amidst the wreckage and debris, we see courageous cyclists navigating their way through the destruction. Their determination to carry on with their daily lives despite such chaos is truly inspiring. The railway signals stand tall but damaged, symbolizing both resilience and vulnerability in times of war. Bridlington Station's goods yard served as a crucial transportation hub during this tumultuous period. It played a vital role in supplying troops and materials for the war effort. However, it also made it a prime target for enemy attacks. This print from Memory Lane Prints transports us back to Yorkshire in the 1940s when communities across England were united against adversity. It serves as a poignant tribute to those who lived through these dark times and reminds us all of our shared history.
