EDITORS COMMENTS
Stepping back in time to the vibrant streets of Truro, Cornwall, this print captures the essence of St Austell Street in 1927. The bustling thoroughfare is a snapshot of history, with its charming architecture and lively atmosphere. At the bottom of Mitchell Hill, two iconic Inns proudly stand as witnesses to a bygone era. On one side stands The Hope Inn, sadly no longer standing since its demolition in 1963. Its sign, skillfully crafted by W. J. Passmore, beckons passersby with an air of warmth and hospitality that once filled its walls. Opposite it lies the George and Dragon Inn; licensed to Betty Wills until its unfortunate demise in 1931. This establishment exudes character and charm through every brick and beam. As we delve deeper into this mesmerizing scene, our eyes are drawn to a notice displayed within the window of the George and Dragon Inn - an invitation to a thrilling swimming gala on Friday 12 August 1927. It serves as a reminder that even amidst daily routines, moments of leisure were cherished. Adding further color to this vibrant street is a sign advertising Lyons Tea on an adjacent building – reminding locals and visitors alike where they could find solace over steaming cups shared amongst friends. Through Arthur William Jordan's lens, we are transported back in time; immersed in an era long past but forever etched within these historic walls.
