EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 1900s, capturing a picturesque view of Wall settlement in Gwinear, Cornwall. The foreground showcases Francis Hales' wheelwright shop, bustling with activity as a group of people gather around a pony. The signage proudly displays "J. V. H. Hill" indicating the ownership or perhaps partnership of this thriving establishment. Adjacent to the wheelwright shop stands Box Tree Cottage, an enchanting thatched-roofed dwelling that holds historical significance. It is said that John Wesley, the renowned Methodist preacher, sought rest within its walls during his visit to Wall in 1743. Imagining his presence there adds an extra layer of intrigue and reverence to this humble abode. In the background looms the Methodist Chapel, standing tall and proud against the Cornish sky. Its architectural beauty speaks volumes about its role as a spiritual center for worship and community gatherings. The photographer responsible for capturing this mesmerizing scene is believed to be Samuel John Govier - an artist who skillfully freezes moments in time through his lens. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, let us transport ourselves back to an era where simplicity reigned supreme and life unfolded at a slower pace amidst these charming surroundings.
