EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a charming scene from the early 1900s in the picturesque village of Bolingey, Perranzabuloe, Cornwall. The focal point is the historic Bolingey Inn, positioned prominently at the center-left of the frame. At this time, it was under the stewardship of Samuel John Ball, who ensured its warm hospitality and welcoming atmosphere. Intriguingly, a dog and a pony with an accompanying trap can be seen patiently waiting on the road outside. Their presence adds an element of rustic charm to this idyllic countryside setting. Adjacent to the inn stands a quaint thatched cottage adorned with a fascinating plaque reading "Offices, New Wheal Leisure Mining Company". This serves as a reminder of Cornwall's rich mining heritage. Foregrounded in this snapshot is an elegant lady accompanied by her loyal canine companion standing proudly in front of their house. They provide a touch of life and character to this already enchanting scene. The glass plate negative used for capturing this momentous image bears the title "Penwartha Nr Perran" possibly indicating that it was taken by none other than Samuel John Govier himself – adding another layer of historical significance to this remarkable photograph. Preserved within Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, this evocative print offers us a glimpse into rural Cornish life during simpler times – where public houses like The Bolingey Inn were not just places for refreshment but also served as community hubs where stories were shared and memories
