EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the early 1900s transports us to a winter scene in Truro, Cornwall. The Millpool and Neptune Row stand as silent witnesses to a bygone era, where towns thrived on the power of water and hydro energy. The image captures the tranquil beauty of the River Allen as it gently flows past these historic landmarks. In this snapshot frozen in time, we glimpse into the lives of Edwardian-era residents who called these charming Cornish cottages their homes. The houses on Union Place, visible on the left side of the photograph, still exude an air of warmth and character that has withstood decades of change. However, history tells us that progress often comes at a cost. On closer inspection, we notice that some buildings have succumbed to demolition over time. The houses on the right-hand side have vanished from this landscape forever but remain alive in our collective memory. Photographer Arthur Philp skillfully captured this momentous view across the pool with his lens, preserving not only architectural heritage but also a slice of life from days gone by. This remarkable print serves as both an homage to Truro's rich past and a reminder that cities evolve while retaining fragments of their essence. As we admire this extraordinary piece from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, let us appreciate its significance beyond commercial use – for it is through such images that we can truly grasp our shared cultural heritage and connect with those who came before us.
