EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the year 1904, capturing a slice of history in East Looe, Cornwall. The focal point of the image is the Guildhall and Reading Room, an architectural gem that proudly stands against time. Its grandeur is accentuated by a man standing on its entrance steps, seemingly lost in contemplation or perhaps waiting for someone. The Guildhall's facade showcases intricate details, but what catches our attention are the peculiar pair of stocks embedded into the gable above the entrance. These wooden restraints serve as a reminder of an era long gone when justice was often swift and public humiliation was not uncommon. They stand as silent witnesses to past wrongdoings and evoke curiosity about their last occupants. Photographer Herbert Hughes skillfully captures this moment in time with his lens, freezing it forever within this print. His keen eye for detail allows us to appreciate both the architectural beauty of this historic building and its significance within Cornish heritage. As we gaze upon this photograph from Royal Cornwall Museum, we are transported back over a century ago; we can almost hear echoes of conversations held within those walls and imagine life unfolding around it. It serves as a testament to our shared past while igniting our imagination about what stories lie hidden behind these walls.
