EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 1900s, capturing a charming scene of Fore Street and the iconic Hawkins Arms in Probus, Cornwall. The photographer, either Arthur Philp or Arthur William Jordan, skillfully framed this snapshot with the Church of St Probus and St Grace as its backdrop. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to a bygone era where life moved at a slower pace. The thatched roofs of the village houses line Fore Street, creating an enchanting rustic atmosphere. In the center stands the Hawkins Arms pub, exuding warmth and hospitality from its very facade. Its doors beckon locals and passersby alike to step inside for a pint or two. Probus Parish Church towers majestically behind it all; its presence is both reassuring and awe-inspiring. This churchtown epitomizes quintessential Cornish charm with its picturesque setting and historical significance. The print captures not only buildings but also whispers of stories untold - tales shared over pints at the pub or whispered prayers within the hallowed walls of the church. It serves as a reminder that even in our fast-paced modern world, there are places like this where time seems to stand still. Preserved by Royal Cornwall Museum, this photograph allows us to glimpse into Cornwall's past while igniting our imagination about what life was like during those simpler times.
