EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to St Buryan, Cornwall, around the year 1920. The image beautifully captures the essence of this quaint village with its historical landmarks and charming architecture. In the background, we can see a war memorial standing tall, paying tribute to those who bravely served their country. Next to it is an old cross, symbolizing the deep-rooted history and spirituality of this ancient land. The former Kings Arms building also graces the backdrop of this snapshot from yesteryears. Although no longer functioning as a pub at the time this photo was taken, one can only imagine the lively stories that were shared within its walls during its heyday. The photographer behind this remarkable shot remains unknown but has left us with a timeless piece of Cornish heritage. This photograph not only serves as a visual portal into St Buryan's past but also evokes feelings of nostalgia and curiosity about life in rural Cornwall nearly a century ago. Preserved by the Royal Cornwall Museum, this print stands as a testament to our collective history and reminds us of how far we have come while honoring our roots. It is through such glimpses into our past that we gain greater appreciation for both our local communities and those who came before us - shaping them into what they are today.
