EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of post-war construction at Gaydon Airfield in Warwickshire during the 1950s. The image showcases a skilled workman diligently using an electric circular saw to cut wood for the construction of buildings. His focused expression and precise movements highlight his expertise in carpentry. The airfield was bustling with activity as work began on a new runway, marking an important milestone in its development. Following this, another contract was awarded for the construction of over 100 Easiform and Air Ministry buildings, along with 23 Nissen huts. These structures were vital for accommodating personnel and supporting operations at the airfield. The photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also provides insight into the hardworking individuals who played a crucial role in shaping Gaydon Airfield's infrastructure. The power tool being used symbolizes progress and innovation, showcasing how technology aided these workers in their tasks. This image is part of Historic England Archive's collection, preserving significant moments from our past. It serves as a reminder of the dedication and craftsmanship that went into constructing essential facilities after World War II.
