EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving from c1860 showcases the low rental workmen's dwellings built by the Birkenhead Dock Co. in approximately 1844, designed by architect CE Lang. The image depicts an impressive avenue of dwellings, with each block consisting of three 'houses' spanning four floors. Each house is divided into two separate dwellings, featuring a living room, two bedrooms, and a washroom/scullery. The architectural design of these buildings reflects the industrial era in which they were constructed, providing essential housing for workers employed at the docks and surrounding areas. The use of timber as a primary material highlights both practicality and durability in construction. As we gaze upon this historical print, we are transported back to a time when housing for laborers was not only functional but also carefully planned out to maximize space and comfort within limited means. The attention to detail in dividing each dwelling into specific rooms speaks to the thoughtful consideration given to the needs of those who called these structures home. Overall, this wood engraving serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of affordable housing for workers throughout history and sheds light on the innovative architectural solutions implemented by companies like Birkenhead Dock Co. under the guidance of talented architects such as CE Lang.
