EDITORS COMMENTS
The Tobban Horse, a captivating print capturing the rugged beauty of Porthtowan, Cornwall. This photograph dates back to the early 20th century, possibly after 1927. The image showcases the magnificent Tobban Horse rock formation before its unfortunate collapse in the 1960s. Standing tall against the crashing waves, this iconic landmark was a testament to nature's artistry. Intriguingly, on the far cliffside, we catch a glimpse of mining headgear - remnants of Cornwall's rich mining history. It is believed that this photo documents an attempted reopening of Vivians shaft at Wheal Sterran / Wheal Tye in 1927. A fascinating blend of natural wonder and industrial heritage unfolds before our eyes. The Cornish coastline stretches out beyond the Tobban Horse, with its golden sands glistening under the sun's warm embrace. Seaweed clings to rocks along the shorelines as if guarding secrets from beneath these turquoise waters. A solitary engine house stands proudly nearby; a reminder of Cornwall's once-thriving mining industry that shaped both its landscape and people for centuries. This evocative print transports us back in time to witness a moment frozen forever – where sea meets land and history intertwines with nature’s grandeur.
