This authentic 1970s colour photograph captures the industrial character of Brayford Pool in Lincoln, Lincolnshire. The eastward view provides a factual record of the waterfront when it was still a working commercial hub, dominated by the C.S. Dickinson City Flour Mills and its prominent brick warehouses and chimney stack. In the distance, the stone spire of St Mary le Wigford church punctuates the skyline.
The foreground documents the era’s automotive landscape, featuring a light blue Hillman Imp and a Bedford HA light van parked along the water’s edge. This archival record preserves the transition of the Brayford area before its modern redevelopment into a premier leisure and university district. It serves as a valuable resource for local historians and collectors of Lincoln industrial heritage and British urban photography from the 1970s.
