EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum takes us back in time to around 1890, capturing a picturesque winter scene of Brunel's Carvedras Viaduct in Truro, Cornwall. The view down St Georges Road reveals Brunel's original stone and timber viaduct standing tall amidst a blanket of snow. The image transports us to an era when the Great Western Railway (GWR) played a vital role in connecting communities across Cornwall. This particular viaduct served as an essential link for the GWR network, allowing trains to traverse the rugged Cornish landscape with ease. As we gaze at this historical snapshot, we can't help but admire the architectural prowess displayed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel. His vision brought forth this remarkable structure that seamlessly blended with its natural surroundings. Intriguingly, this photograph also captures several men going about their daily activities near the viaduct. Perhaps they were railway workers or locals who marveled at this engineering marvel on their way to church or work. It is worth noting that shortly after this photo was taken, Brunel's original creation would be replaced by an all-stone structure which opened on 17 August 1902. Nevertheless, this image serves as a testament to both Brunel's ingenuity and the enduring beauty of Cornwall during wintertime. Photographer: Unknown
