Metal Prints from Royal Cornwall Museum
Coulson Park Flood, Lostwithiel, Cornwall. September 1993
A van from T.J. Brent, which is involved in river and road widening work in Coulson Park makes its way gingerly during the 5.9 metres high tide which caused flooding in the park. Although the flood affected the park area, the parts of the town which traditionally are prone to flooding on this occasion were fine. Lostwithiel has always had a flooding problem, especially in properties near the River Fowey. Over the years flood prevention schemes have been installed with partial success.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from September 1993 showcases the dramatic scene of Coulson Park Flood in Lostwithiel, Cornwall. The image captures a van belonging to T. J. Brent, a company involved in river and road widening work, cautiously navigating through the waterlogged park during an exceptionally high tide measuring 5.9 meters. The floodwaters have transformed the once serene park into a muddy and saturated landscape, with trees standing tall amidst the deluge. Despite this temporary chaos, it is worth noting that other areas of Lostwithiel that typically suffer from flooding were spared on this occasion. Lostwithiel has long grappled with its vulnerability to floods, particularly affecting properties near the River Fowey. Over time, various flood prevention schemes have been implemented with varying degrees of success to mitigate these recurring challenges. Photographer Jonathan Barker skillfully captures both the resilience and vulnerability of this Cornish town through his lens. This evocative image serves as a reminder of nature's power and our ongoing efforts to coexist harmoniously within its unpredictable embrace. Displayed at Royal Cornwall Museum for public appreciation, this print offers viewers an opportunity to reflect upon the delicate balance between human development and environmental forces while appreciating Cornwall's unique beauty even in moments of adversity.
