EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1973, capturing a significant moment in Torquay's history. The image showcases the work underway demolishing the iconic Addison cafe on Cary Parade, leaving behind a trail of memories for those who once frequented this beloved establishment. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to an era filled with nostalgia and charm - the seventies. The United Kingdom was undergoing its own unique transformation during this period, and England's South West region was no exception. Devon, with its picturesque landscapes and coastal towns like Torquay, held a special place in people's hearts. The photograph not only captures the physical demolition but also symbolizes change and progress within society itself. It serves as a reminder that nothing is permanent; buildings come and go while memories endure. Intriguingly framed by the presence of a digger amidst rubble, this image evokes curiosity about what lies beyond these walls now torn down. It invites us to reflect upon our own personal histories intertwined with places that have shaped our lives. Thanks to Mirrorpix's expertise in preserving historical moments through their prints from Memory Lane collection, we can relive these fragments of time whenever we desire – connecting past generations with present ones through shared experiences captured forever on paper.
