EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from June 1980, we are transported back to the charming streets of Lostwithiel, Cornwall. The image captures a pivotal moment in the town's history - the Yellow Line Campaign. As shop-keepers gather on Queen Street, their united front against the council's proposal to impose yellow no parking lines is palpable. The scene exudes a sense of community and determination as these traders make their feelings known. Their vibrant personalities shine through as they stand shoulder-to-shoulder in defense of their beloved town. Each face tells a unique story - stories of hard work, dedication, and resilience that have shaped Lostwithiel into what it is today. Queen Street itself serves as an emblematic backdrop for this powerful display of unity. Running through the heart of Lostwithiel, it has witnessed countless generations come together to build a thriving community. Its cobbled stones bear witness to both triumphs and challenges faced by its residents over time. Photographer Jonathan Barker skillfully captures not only the physicality but also the spirit behind this historic moment. His lens immortalizes an event that would go down in local lore; reminding us all that sometimes even small towns can make big waves when they stand together. This print from Royal Cornwall Museum encapsulates not just shops or roads but rather an indomitable Cornish spirit - one that cherishes tradition while fiercely protecting its own identity and heritage for future generations to come.
