EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the early 1900s showcases the vibrant atmosphere of East End, Redruth in Cornwall during a Bank Holiday. The image transports us back in time to an era where horse-buses were the primary mode of transportation and crowds of people eagerly embarked on excursions from East End, Camborne. The scene is alive with energy as families and friends gather together, their faces filled with anticipation and excitement for the day ahead. The air is thick with laughter, chatter, and perhaps even a hint of nervousness as they prepare to embark on their adventure. In this snapshot of history, we catch a glimpse into the daily lives of ordinary Cornish folk who sought respite from their routines by venturing out into the beautiful countryside. It's fascinating to imagine what destinations these horse-buses might have carried them towards – perhaps sandy beaches or picturesque villages nestled amidst rolling hills. As we examine this print displayed at Royal Cornwall Museum, it serves as a reminder that despite technological advancements over time, some things remain constant: our desire for leisurely pursuits and shared experiences with loved ones. This image encapsulates not only a moment frozen in time but also reflects upon our universal human need for connection and exploration. Through this lens into the past, we are transported to an era where simplicity reigned supreme; where horse-drawn carriages symbolized both practicality and charm. It is within these details that we find ourselves captivated by nostalgia while marveling at how much has changed since
