EDITORS COMMENTS
Childhood memories and the Laing spirit come alive in this print captured by A© Historic England Archive. Step back in time to a sunny day in 1949, where a group of people are enjoying a delightful game of cricket on the picturesque beach of Minehead, West Somerset. In the forefront stands a young boy, full of enthusiasm and determination, ready to take on the role of batsman. His eager eyes reflect the joy and excitement that can only be found during carefree days spent with family and friends. Surrounding him are fellow Laing staff members, united not only by their profession but also by their shared love for sport and recreation. This snapshot offers us a glimpse into an era when simple pleasures were cherished amidst bustling work schedules. The South-West area was abuzz with Laing contracts in various towns such as Bristol, Boscombe Down, Swindon, Cirencester, and Gloucestershire. Yet amidst these busy projects, moments like this day trip to Minehead provided much-needed respite for hardworking individuals. The image exudes nostalgia for seaside adventures filled with laughter and camaraderie. It serves as a reminder that even in times gone by, people sought solace in nature's embrace while engaging in beloved pastimes like cricket. Let this print transport you back to an era where family life intertwined seamlessly with leisurely pursuits – where cricket on the beach symbolized pure bliss.
