EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Charlie Owens takes us back to the vibrant streets of Goodison Avenue in Walton, Liverpool during August 1965. The image captures a significant moment in history as houses are set to be demolished to make way for a new stand at Goodison Park, the beloved home ground of Everton Football Club. The scene is filled with a sense of anticipation and change. Rows of terrace houses line the street, their facades weathered by time and memories. These humble homes have witnessed countless stories unfold within their walls, but now they stand on the brink of transformation. As we gaze upon this snapshot from the past, we can almost hear echoes of cheers and chants that once reverberated through these narrow alleys. It serves as a reminder that football is not just a game; it intertwines with the fabric of communities, shaping identities and forging lifelong bonds. Charlie Owens' lens captures more than just bricks and mortar; it immortalizes an era when urban scenes like this were common across England's football landscape. This photograph transports us back to an era where residential life harmoniously coexisted alongside sporting venues. Through this poignant image, we are reminded that progress often demands sacrifice. Yet amidst demolition lies opportunity – an opportunity for growth, renewal, and ultimately creating space for new memories to be made within Goodison Park's hallowed grounds.
