Bennington Vermont in the 1980s

Something moving and disturbing about these photographs of Bennington, Vermont in the mid 1980s, which are up on the Hemmings site. Bennington had been a factory town. As with a lot of New England towns, that was long gone by the 1980s. The photographs suggest a landscape that has lost its organizing principle, a community without much sense of purpose.
