EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the early 1900s takes us back in time to the charming town of Grampound in Cornwall. The image showcases a picturesque view down Fore Street, capturing the essence of this historic place. Standing tall and proud on the right side is the old town clock tower, its timeless presence adding character to the scene. Adjacent to it is the Town Hall, an architectural gem that exudes a sense of authority and community spirit. As we delve deeper into this snapshot of yesteryears, our eyes are drawn towards a group of children playfully occupying the road. Their innocent laughter and carefree demeanor bring life to this black-and-white composition. On closer inspection, we notice Goviers van discreetly tucked behind one of the houses on the left side—perhaps awaiting its next delivery or embarking on another adventure through these quaint streets. The photographer responsible for capturing this momentous slice of history is Samuel John Govier—a skilled artist who has masterfully preserved Grampound's heritage through his lens. This photograph not only documents Cornish architecture but also encapsulates a bygone era filled with simplicity and authenticity. Displayed at Royal Cornwall Museum, this print invites viewers to immerse themselves in Grampound's rich past while appreciating its unique beauty. It serves as a reminder that even though time may pass and landscapes may change, there will always be remnants of history worth cherishing within our communities.
