Step back in time to the carefree days of summer in 1930 with this print from the STEAM Museum of the GWR. Captured at Summerleaze Beach in Bude, Cornwall, it showcases the newly opened Summerleaze Bathing Pool and its idyllic surroundings. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness a scene filled with joy and laughter. Children frolic gleefully in both the paddling pool and main pool, their infectious enthusiasm echoing through the air. The sparkling blue waters provide respite from the warm August sun as they splash and play. Meanwhile, adults perch on rocks overlooking the pools, contentedly observing their loved ones' enjoyment. Their faces reflect a mix of relaxation and delight as they soak up the tranquil coastal atmosphere. The image transports us to an era when holidays were simpler but no less magical. It evokes memories of sand between toes, salty sea breezes caressing sun-kissed skin, and endless hours spent building sandcastles or diving into crystal-clear waters. This photograph encapsulates not only a moment frozen in history but also a timeless essence that still resonates today – that feeling of pure bliss experienced by all who venture to seaside destinations like Bude. Whether you're an avid historian or simply yearn for nostalgic beachside memories, this remarkable print is sure to transport you back to those halcyon days of summer.
