Photos showing the demolition of the Dunkerton Viaduct in 1981 have come to light.
I’m never sure why old photos and video footage of long-forgotten demolition works suddenly comes to light. But I am grateful, nonetheless, because it does give a useful insight into how our industry used to look.
Take, for example, this set of photos showing the demolition and subsequent implosion of the Dunkerton Viaduct in Bath. Although they were taken relatively recently – 1981 to be precise – the fact that they’re in black and white gives them an almost pre-War feel.
It’s a great set of photos, and we’d recommend them to any demolition historians out there. You can find more by clicking here.
