EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Ropehaven House, a hidden gem nestled near Trenarren in St Austell, Cornwall. Taken in 1966 by the talented photographer Charles Woolf, it offers a timeless glimpse into the rich history of this enchanting coastal region. In this general view of Ropehaven House, one can appreciate its unique location on the site of former fish cellars and a small fishing harbor. The house stands as a testament to the area's maritime past, where once a bustling fishing hamlet thrived but has since vanished with time. Its architectural beauty harmoniously blends with the rugged Cornish landscape that stretches out towards the vast sea. For an impressive span of 351 years, Ropehaven House and its surrounding land and harbor were under the ownership of the esteemed Hext family until their decision to sell in 1989. This photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder of generations who have left their mark on this cherished place. Cornwall's natural splendor is beautifully captured through Joyce Greenham's lens, showcasing Porthpean's picturesque coastline.
