EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Eileen Deste takes us back in time to the streets of Burnley, Lancashire. The image showcases a narrow cobbled ginnel, or alleyway, nestled between Milton Street and Tentre Street. It is a snapshot of Victorian-era architecture with rows of terraced houses lining the alley. The scene exudes an industrial charm, as evidenced by the partially visible Pentridge Mill chimney looming in the background. These mills were once bustling centers of production during Burnley's textile heyday. However, this particular area fell into disrepair over time. Deste's lens captures a moment frozen in history - dilapidated terraces that would later be demolished in the late 1960s. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of urban transformation and changing landscapes. Today, Holly House flats stand tall on this very site, breathing new life into what was once old and worn down. This image allows us to reflect on how cities evolve while preserving fragments of their past. Eileen Deste's skillful composition transports viewers to another era where they can almost hear the echoes of footsteps on cobblestones and imagine daily life unfolding within these now-vanished homes.
