EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the quaint village of Tregaminion in Morvah, Cornwall, during the year 1958. The image showcases a Grade II listed stone built house and an adjoining barn, accompanied by other charming farm buildings lining the roadside. The architectural beauty of this scene is evident as we admire the intricate details that have withstood the test of time. The focal point of interest lies on the gable end of the barn, where 17th-century scrolled kneelers catch our attention. These ornate features add a touch of elegance to an otherwise rustic setting. Additionally, we notice external steps leading up to a loading or winnowing doorway that were added in the 19th century for convenience and accessibility. Photographed by Charles Woolf, this snapshot captures not only historical significance but also highlights rural life in Cornwall during this era. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when agriculture played a vital role in sustaining communities like Tregaminion. As we gaze upon this timeless image, we are transported into an idyllic world filled with nostalgia and charm. The combination of green fields surrounding these old structures evokes feelings of tranquility and serenity that can only be found within rural landscapes like those found in Cornwall. This photograph truly encapsulates both the architectural heritage and agricultural traditions that define this picturesque region.
