EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 1880s, offering a glimpse of Wadebridge, Cornwall from a northern perspective. The view showcases the charming town nestled alongside the picturesque River Camel. In this scene, a majestic ship is drawn up alongside the riverbank, adding an element of maritime beauty to the landscape. In the background, perched atop a hill, stands a grand house that commands attention with its imposing presence. This architectural gem serves as a reminder of Wadebridge's rich history and heritage. Originally known as Wade, it was after the construction of Reverend Lovibond's remarkable 15th-century bridge across the River Camel that the town earned its current name - Wadebridge. The bridge itself is an engineering marvel boasting seventeen arches along its impressive 320-foot length. It not only connects both sides of this enchanting town but also symbolizes unity and progress for its inhabitants. While we may not know who precisely captured this breathtaking moment in time through their lens, we can appreciate their ability to freeze-frame such natural beauty and historical significance forever. This photograph transports us back to an era where ships sailed gracefully on rivers like arteries connecting towns and cities. As we admire this image from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, let us immerse ourselves in nostalgia while appreciating how far Wadebridge has come since those early days when commerce thrived upon these waters without mentioning any commercial use today might bring forth.
