The image showcases a picturesque view of these remarkable buildings from the opposite side of the road. As we gaze upon this scene frozen in time, our eyes are drawn to the stunning architectural details that adorn Colchester Villas.

The street itself is bustling with life as a horse-drawn trap stands at the bottom, its driver ready for his next journey. The surrounding gardens add an element of tranquility to this vibrant cityscape, providing a peaceful oasis amidst the urban setting. It's fascinating to imagine what daily life was like during this era when these magnificent residences were inhabited by families who enjoyed all that Truro had to offer.
