EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant photograph captured by Howard Walker, we are transported back to the year 1962 in Oldham, Greater Manchester. The image portrays Mr Sutton Pownall, a hardworking gravedigger who resides with his wife Joyce and their five children in a humble abode at Number Two Court on Dickenson Street. The house they call home is steeped in history, standing tall for over 150 years. However, its age also means that space is scarce. The family of seven shares one bedroom, one kitchen, and one living room. Their daily routines intertwine within these walls as they navigate life's challenges together. Living conditions further highlight the hardships faced by the Pownall family. They rely on communal toilets located nearby where dustbins are stacked - a reminder of their modest circumstances. As we delve deeper into their lives through this snapshot frozen in time, we meet Susan (6), Steve (5), Sandra (4), Mark (3), and Baby Gary (8 months). These innocent faces reflect both resilience and vulnerability amidst an environment plagued by poverty. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the struggles endured by families like the Pownalls during an era marked by limited resources and housing disparities. It captures not only their physical surroundings but also the strength of familial bonds that endure even in times of adversity.
