EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum takes us back in time to around 1910, offering a glimpse into the bustling world of mining in Perranzabuloe, Cornwall. The image showcases a general surface view of the Alfred mine, revealing an intricate network of buildings and structures that were integral to this thriving industry. On the left side of the photograph, we witness miners diligently constructing a chimney stack with scaffolding and ladders. Their skilled hands expertly maneuver bricks into place as they work together to create this vital component for ventilation within the mine. Meanwhile, on the right side of the frame, our attention is drawn towards a triangle formation of sturdy timbers supporting winding gear and a pulley system positioned above a deep shaft. This machinery played an essential role in transporting materials and workers up and down within the mine's depths. The photographer behind this remarkable snapshot is Arthur Philp, whose keen eye captured not only these architectural marvels but also immortalized hardworking miners who dedicated their lives to extracting precious resources from beneath Cornwall's soil. With its rich historical significance and intricate details, this print serves as both an educational tool for understanding Cornish mining practices during that era and as a tribute to those who shaped Cornwall's industrial landscape.
