EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print from the Royal Cornwall Museum. Taken around 1910, it transports us to Boscawen Street in Truro, Cornwall. The bustling scene showcases a variety of horse-drawn vehicles, including the magnificent horse bus named Princess, parked outside the iconic Red Lion Hotel. As we gaze upon this snapshot of history, our eyes are drawn eastward along the street. The architecture of that era is on full display, with charming buildings lining both sides. One particular detail catches our attention—a sign shaped like a sheep hanging from the building opposite. It adds a touch of whimsy to an otherwise ordinary day in Truro. The photographer behind this remarkable image remains unknown, but their talent for capturing everyday life is evident. Through their lens, they have immortalized a moment frozen in time—an era when horses were still relied upon for transportation and carriages ruled the roads. This print serves as a reminder of how much has changed over the past century while also celebrating the rich heritage and traditions that continue to shape Cornwall today. Whether you're a history enthusiast or simply appreciate glimpses into bygone eras, this piece will transport you back to an enchanting period where horses trotted through cobbled streets and Boscawen Street was alive with activity.
