EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in 1966 by photographer Charles Woolf, this print showcases the humble yet significant Bojewyan Mens Institute in Ponds Hill, near Pendeen, St Just in Penwith, Cornwall. The Working Mens Institute found its home within a modest early 20th-century block work outbuilding that resembled little more than a shed. This image transports us back to a time when community spaces played an integral role in the lives of local residents. Despite its unassuming appearance, the institute served as a hub for social gatherings, educational activities, and cultural events. It was here that men from all walks of life would come together to share knowledge and experiences. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of this historic institution with its weathered exterior walls standing against the rugged Cornish landscape. The simplicity of the building is juxtaposed against the rich history it holds within its walls. Preserved by the Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, this print serves as a testament to both our industrial past and our commitment to preserving heritage. It reminds us of how vital these community spaces were for fostering camaraderie and personal growth among individuals during times of change. Through this image, we are invited to reflect on our collective history while celebrating the resilience and spirit embodied by institutions like Bojewyan Mens Institute.
