EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of Appleton Lodge, a significant landmark in Widnes, England. The image was taken by an English photographer in the 20th century and is now part of a private collection. Appleton Lodge holds great historical importance as it played a pivotal role in the chemical industry that thrived in Widnes. This particular photograph was featured as an illustration in "A History of the Chemical Industry in Widnes" by D. W. F Hardie, published by Imperial Chemicals Ltd. It showcases the impressive architecture of this iconic building which served as a hub for chemists and major players within the industry. The lodge's significance extends beyond its association with chemistry; it also has ties to local history and landownership. Once owned by notable figures such as Major James Cross and John Hutchinson, Appleton Lodge stands tall amidst lush surroundings near St Bedes Church. Though not mentioned explicitly, this image evokes thoughts about how industrial progress shaped Britain during the mid-19th to early 20th centuries. It serves as a reminder of Germany's influence on European industries at that time. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece of British heritage through their fine art collection, allowing us to appreciate both its aesthetic beauty and historical context today.
