EDITORS COMMENTS
Transported back in time to the charming coastal town of Newquay, Cornwall, this vintage print captures a slice of history from around 1905. The focal point is Granny Cook's former dame school, an iconic building that once nurtured young minds along Beach Road. Its weathered facade tells tales of generations past and echoes with the laughter and learning that once filled its walls. Intriguingly, a poster advertising Ginnetts Circus twice nightly catches the eye. This glimpse into entertainment culture at the turn of the century hints at the excitement and wonder that awaited locals and visitors alike under their big top tent. Imagining families gathering eagerly for thrilling performances brings a sense of nostalgia to this scene frozen in time. Adding life to this snapshot are two girls standing confidently in the middle of Beach Road. Their presence infuses youthful energy into an otherwise tranquil setting, reminding us that even amidst simpler times, joy and curiosity were ever-present companions. This evocative print from Royal Cornwall Museum transports us back to an era when Newquay was still blossoming as a seaside destination. It serves as a poignant reminder of how places evolve over time while preserving fragments of their heritage – like Granny Cook's former dame school – which continue to captivate our imagination today.
