EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the charming village of Grampound, Cornwall, in 1912. This print captures a bustling scene on Fore Street, where history comes alive through its picturesque architecture and vibrant community. Standing tall on the right side of the street is the iconic clock tower and Town Hall, serving as a timeless symbol of civic pride. In this snapshot frozen in time by photographer Samuel John Govier, adults and children alike gather together to pose for the camera. Their expressions reflect a sense of camaraderie and joy that transcends generations. The image exudes an air of simplicity and innocence, reminding us of a simpler era when life moved at a slower pace. The Cornish spirit shines brightly through this photograph; it showcases not only the beauty of Grampound's traditional houses but also highlights how closely knit its inhabitants were. Each house tells its own story with unique architectural details that have stood strong against time's passage. This remarkable print from Royal Cornwall Museum allows us to immerse ourselves in an era long gone yet forever cherished. It serves as both a window into our past and an invitation to explore the rich heritage that defines Cornwall today.
