EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the scene at Kieselguhr Industry Toome in County Antrim, Northern Ireland, circa early 1900s. The image showcases a serene and picturesque view of large stacks of Bann Clay, meticulously arranged to dry in the sun. The clay, a type of diatomaceous earth, was a valuable resource in the region during this period, known for its unique properties that made it an essential ingredient in various industries, including glassmaking, insulation, and filtration. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, revealing the labor-intensive process of extracting and preparing the clay for use. The man in the foreground adds a sense of scale and human connection to the scene, as he stands beside the towering stacks, seemingly overseeing the drying process. The tranquil setting, with the clay piles casting long shadows against the rolling hills and the clear blue sky overhead, creates a striking contrast to the industrial nature of the work being carried out. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of the Kieselguhr Industry in Toome, County Antrim, and the crucial role it played in the region's economy during this time. The image invites us to reflect on the past and appreciate the beauty and significance of the natural resources that have shaped the landscape and the communities that have relied on them.
