EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the early 1900s transports us back in time to Tolverne Ferry, situated on the picturesque River Fal in Philleigh, Cornwall. The image captures a moment of tranquility as we gaze across the river towards Kea, just below Higher Trelease Farm. In this snapshot of history, we see several figures dotting the landscape, each seemingly immersed in their own thoughts and activities. Among them stands a lady with an elegant parasol, adding a touch of grace and sophistication to the scene. Her presence hints at a leisurely day out by the riverbank. Tolverne Ferry was once an essential mode of transportation for locals and visitors alike but sadly fell into disuse around 1910. However, this photograph allows us to appreciate its significance during its heyday. The photographer behind this remarkable shot is Arthur Philp, whose keen eye captured not only the beauty of his surroundings but also preserved moments that would otherwise have been lost to time. As we admire this print from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, let it serve as a reminder of our rich heritage and how even simple scenes can hold profound stories within them.
