EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Truro, Cornwall in the 1910s. The focal point is S. Hicks & Son Cycle shop, located at 10 River Street. A true testament to its enduring legacy, this establishment still proudly bears its original name despite changing ownership over the years. The rich history of Clymas Temperance Hotel is also intertwined with this scene. Originally known as the Commercial Hotel under the proprietorship of Mrs Elizabeth Clyma in 1803, it underwent several transformations throughout its existence. In 1889, F. Carwell took charge as Manageress before John Bray assumed ownership and renamed it the Temperance Hotel in 1893. As we delve deeper into this snapshot from a bygone era, our attention is drawn to other fascinating details within the frame. A horse-drawn cart gracefully traverses River Street while a young boy diligently pushes a handcart nearby – both symbols of transportation methods prevalent during that time. Captured by photographer Arthur William Jordan, this image not only freezes a moment in history but also serves as an invaluable glimpse into Truro's past. It evokes nostalgia for simpler times and invites us to reflect on how much has changed since then. Displayed at Royal Cornwall Museum, this print stands as a poignant reminder of our shared heritage and offers visitors an opportunity to connect with Cornwall's vibrant history firsthand.
