EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the charming village of St Keverne, Cornwall, with this print captured by renowned photographer Charles Woolf in 1967. The image showcases the iconic Mace grocery store nestled within The Square, a bustling hub of activity and community spirit. Standing proudly on the right is the magnificent St Keverne Church, its historic presence adding an air of tranquility to the vibrant scene. Transporting us straight into this bygone era, a small van bearing registration plate 548 JCV rests outside the shop, hinting at a simpler time when local businesses thrived and personal connections were cherished. The photograph evokes nostalgia for a time when daily life revolved around close-knit communities and corner stores like Mace provided essential goods and warm exchanges. The picturesque parish of St Keverne comes alive through this snapshot; its cobblestone streets lined with quaint buildings tell tales of Cornish heritage and resilience. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, it serves as a reminder that even amidst changing times, certain places retain their timeless charm. This print captures not only the essence of St Keverne but also pays homage to Charles Woolf's exceptional talent for preserving history through his lens. It stands as an invaluable testament to our rich cultural legacy – one that continues to inspire awe and appreciation for Cornwall's unique beauty.
