EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, taken in October 1903, transports us back to a moment frozen in time. The image showcases the picturesque beauty of The Strand, Bude, Cornwall during a historic flood that occurred around the 27th of October that year. As we gaze upon this scene, our eyes are drawn upriver where buildings stand tall amidst the rushing waters. Intriguingly, one prominent structure catches our attention - the Globe Hotel. Its construction seems to be nearing completion as scaffolding still envelops its facade. This architectural marvel stands as a testament to human resilience and determination even in the face of nature's fury. The charm of this photograph lies not only in its historical significance but also in its composition. Cornish architecture is on full display with traditional buildings lining both sides of the riverbank. A solitary lamppost adds an enchanting touch to this already mesmerizing scene. Captured by photographer N. J. Hawking, this image serves as a window into a bygone era when floods were part of life's tapestry along Cornwall's riverside towns. It invites us to reflect on how communities have evolved over time while cherishing their rich heritage. Displayed at Royal Cornwall Museum, this print offers visitors an opportunity to immerse themselves in history and appreciate the enduring spirit that has shaped Bude and its resilient inhabitants for generations past and present.
