Step back in time with this print of Falmouth and station, Cornwall, taken in the early 1900s. As you gaze upon the image, you are transported to a bygone era where horse-drawn carriages traversed the cornish roads and pedestrians strolled leisurely along the sidewalks. The entrance to Falmouth from Bar Road is beautifully captured, showcasing a bustling scene filled with charming buildings that exude character and history. Amidst the architectural splendor stands Doney & Son, monumental mason - a testament to craftsmanship and artistry of yesteryears. The presence of this establishment adds an intriguing element to the photograph as it hints at stories waiting to be unraveled. Nature intertwines seamlessly with urban life in this snapshot; trees line the streets providing shade for passersby while a solitary lamp post illuminates its surroundings during twilight hours. A fence gracefully frames the scene, adding depth and structure to an already picturesque setting. The telegraph pole standing tall serves as a reminder of technological advancements that were beginning to shape society during this period. It symbolizes progress amidst tradition - a theme that resonates throughout Cornwall's rich history. This remarkable print captures not just a moment frozen in time but also offers us glimpses into daily life over a century ago. It invites us on an immersive journey through Falmouth's past, allowing us to appreciate its heritage and marvel at how much has changed since Arthur Philp expertly clicked his camera shutter
