Black and white low gloss photographic print of "Jock the Wash" taken at the Esholt Sewage Works in Bradford in 1977. It is signed by photographer Ian Beesley. This picture is of a man washing work clothes. He boiled clothes in an old oil drum with Domestos while stirring them around with a scaffold pipe. Steam from the boiling obscures some of the image. Can be found in Ian Beesley's 'Life: A retrospective' on page 14.
