EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print of Plain-an-Gwarry, St Just in Penwith Churchtown, Cornwall, taken in the early 1900s. The image transports us to a bygone era where children are playfully posed on the surrounding wall of this historic open-air theater. Known as Plain-an-Gwarry or Plain-an-Gware, this unique venue holds great cultural significance as it was once a hub for Medieval miracle plays including Cornish Ordinalia. Photographed by Edwin Trembath, this snapshot captures the essence of Cornish tradition and community spirit. The children's costumes add an extra layer of authenticity to the scene, reminding us of the rich heritage that still thrives within these ancient walls. The open-air amphitheater itself is steeped in history and has witnessed countless performances throughout its existence. Its name derives from 'Plen an Gwari, ' meaning a playing place - a testament to its role as a gathering spot for theatrical events dating back centuries. This remarkable print offers viewers a glimpse into Cornwall's vibrant past and serves as a reminder of the importance placed on storytelling and entertainment within local communities. It stands not only as an artistic representation but also as a treasured historical artifact preserved at Royal Cornwall Museum.
