EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Alun Bull showcases the historic Ash Grove Industrial Estate in Ripon, North Yorkshire. The image captures a general view of three former army camp buildings that stand proudly on the east side of the estate. These remarkable structures were erected during the First World War, serving as a testament to their enduring significance. From a south-west perspective, this photograph beautifully encapsulates the architectural grandeur and historical importance of these buildings. Their sturdy construction and imposing presence evoke memories of an era long gone but not forgotten. The Ash Grove Industrial Estate holds great cultural value as it represents an important chapter in British history. Once bustling with activity during wartime, these buildings now stand as silent witnesses to past events and serve as a reminder of our nation's resilience in times of adversity. Alun Bull's skillful composition allows viewers to appreciate both the aesthetic appeal and historical context surrounding this industrial estate-turned-army camp. Through his lens, we are transported back in time to an era where these structures played a vital role in supporting troops during WWI. This print is more than just a visual representation; it is a tangible piece of history that invites us to reflect upon our shared heritage and pay homage to those who came before us.
