The Oldham Road. Charlie Meecham. Introductory essay by Ian Jeffrey.

£100.00

Description:

Signed copy of this rare and important book by one of Britain’s early exponents of colour photography.

These photographs form part of a project to document the area between Manchester and Oldham, England in 1984-1986.

 “When I first started working on the project, most of the early industry had ceased operating and the mills were either abandoned or being dismantled. However, some had been refurbished either for new industrial use or later, made into apartments. Some run down areas were cleared making way for new housing. Clearance also provided opportunity to build new schools, trading estates and create green space. Most of the older community centres such as theatres and cinemas along the road were also abandoned and later cleared.”

Charlie Meecham
