EDITORS COMMENTS
Capturing a glimpse of rural life in the early 1900s, this print showcases farm workers beside a charming stone cottage nestled amidst fields by the sea in St Merryn, Cornwall. The iconic Gull Rock stands tall in the background, adding to the picturesque coastal scenery. Believed to have been taken on Trevose Barton, this image offers a fascinating glimpse into daily life during that era. The scene is brought to life with two horses and carts positioned at either side of the cottage. Two men on the left catch our attention; their more formal attire suggests they may be supervisors overseeing operations on this idyllic farmstead. Behind them, another horse and cart can be faintly seen, hinting at further activity taking place beyond what meets the eye. Historical records reveal that William Wherry of St Merryn owned one of these carts captured in the photograph. He was associated with Trevorgus farm until approximately 1908 when this snapshot was likely taken by an unknown photographer. Preserved for generations within Royal Cornwall Museum's archives, this evocative print serves as a testament to Cornwall's rich agricultural heritage and invites us to reflect upon how farming practices have evolved over time.
