EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the early 1900s with this print of the Post Office in St Stephen, a quaint Cornish village. The image transports us to an era where simplicity and community were at the heart of daily life. Standing proudly in the doorway is a lady, possibly the postmistress herself, exuding grace and warmth. As we explore further, our eyes are drawn to the hoardings on the right side of the doorway. Among them, an advertisement for G. Oliver Boots and Shoes catches our attention, reminding us that even in this idyllic setting, commerce played its part. The photographer behind this remarkable snapshot is Canon Henry Holroyd Mills, who skillfully captured not only a moment frozen in time but also a glimpse into Edwardian England's rural charm. His lens perfectly frames every detail – from the rustic stone walls to the intricate architectural elements that make up this picturesque post office. This print evokes nostalgia for simpler times when handwritten letters carried heartfelt messages across great distances. It invites us to imagine what it must have been like to visit this bustling hub of communication within such a close-knit community. Displayed at Royal Cornwall Museum, this piece offers visitors an opportunity to immerse themselves in history while appreciating both Cornish heritage and Edwardian aesthetics. Step closer and let your imagination wander through these streets filled with stories waiting to be discovered.
