EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to market day in Boscawen Street, Truro, Cornwall, around 1910. This print captures the bustling atmosphere of a bygone era. As you gaze upon the image, your eyes are immediately drawn to the long line of horse-drawn buses patiently waiting for passengers. The skilled coachmen sit atop their carriages with an air of quiet anticipation. In the background, the shop facades paint a vivid picture of early 20th-century commerce. Among them stand prominent establishments such as the Exchange and Webb & Co. , their names etched into history alongside this vibrant street scene. The photographer behind this remarkable snapshot is believed to be Arthur William Jordan, whose keen eye for detail has immortalized this moment in time. His lens transports us to an age when horses were still relied upon for transportation and carts filled with goods lined these cobblestone streets. This photograph evokes nostalgia and curiosity about life in Truro during that period – a simpler time when daily routines centered around local markets and community interactions. It serves as a testament to our shared heritage and reminds us of how much has changed over the years. As we admire this piece from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, let it transport us back through time to experience Market Day on Boscawen Street firsthand – even if only through our imaginations.
