EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of pure relaxation and tranquility. Taken during a staff outing of Laings London office to the picturesque seaside town of Bournemouth in the 1950s, it showcases a couple dozing peacefully in deckchairs. The image exudes the essence of the Laing spirit - a company known for its commitment to excellence and innovation. The scene is set against the backdrop of a bustling beach, with people enjoying their leisure time under the warm sun. It is evident that this brief respite from work has allowed these individuals to fully embrace relaxation and unwind from their daily responsibilities. The Breaking New Ground Project, in partnership with the John Laing Charitable Trust, catalogued this image as part of an initiative aimed at preserving historical moments like these. By capturing such snapshots in time, they ensure that future generations can appreciate and learn from our past. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back to an era where life seemed simpler and slower-paced. It serves as a reminder that amidst our busy lives, taking moments for ourselves is essential for rejuvenation and well-being. This print by A© Historic England Archive beautifully encapsulates not only the joyous atmosphere of Bournemouth's seaside but also celebrates human connection through shared experiences.
