EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the year 1961, capturing a remarkable piece of history at Shillingham Manor Farm in St Stephens by Saltash, Cornwall. The focal point of this image is an impressive wooden granary building, proudly standing on staddle stones that have weathered the test of time. This Grade II listed structure is believed to have been constructed during the mid-19th century and showcases the architectural prowess of its era. The photographer, Charles Woolf, skillfully captures every intricate detail of this cornish gem. The tarred weather-boarding adds a touch of rustic charm to the granary's exterior while nine sturdy granite staddle stones provide a solid foundation for this storage facility. Its hipped slurried slate roof with a strategically placed roof vent hints at its purpose - storing precious agricultural produce. This photograph not only documents an important historical artifact but also serves as a testament to Joyce Greenham's passion for preserving architectural heritage. It invites us to appreciate the craftsmanship involved in creating such structures and reminds us of their vital role in sustaining communities throughout history. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time and can almost hear echoes from decades past - whispers from hardworking farmers tending their crops or perhaps even laughter shared during communal gatherings within these walls. This print truly encapsulates the essence of rural life in Cornwall and leaves us longing for simpler times gone by.
