EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a significant moment in history - the demolition of the original Kingskerswell Arch on Newton Road in 1964. Located in Torquay, this iconic archway stood as a symbol of unity and connection for many years. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to an era filled with nostalgia and memories of the swinging sixties. The United Kingdom was undergoing rapid changes, and England's South West region was no exception. This image captures not only the physical destruction but also represents a shift towards progress and modernization. The construction site is bustling with activity as workers maneuver heavy machinery like diggers and lorries. It serves as a reminder of the industrious spirit that defined this era. The bridge itself stands tall amidst all the chaos, displaying its strength even during its final moments. This photograph invites us to reflect on how our surroundings change over time while reminding us of our ability to adapt and evolve. It encapsulates both loss and growth, showcasing how old structures make way for new ones. Mirrorpix has expertly captured this historical event through their lens, allowing us to witness firsthand an important chapter from Devon's past. As we admire this remarkable piece of artistry, it sparks curiosity about what lies beyond these demolished walls - perhaps new beginnings or untold stories waiting to be discovered?
