EDITORS COMMENTS
Capturing the essence of an Edwardian Cornish village, this vintage print transports us back to Chapel Hill in St Erth, Cornwall during the early 1900s. The image beautifully showcases a picturesque view down the street, with William Edward Hooper's quaint shop taking center stage. Its charming storefront beckons passersby to explore its treasures within. As our gaze travels further down Chapel Hill, we are greeted by the magnificent Wesleyan Methodist Chapel. A symbol of spiritual devotion and community unity, this architectural gem stands proudly amidst its surroundings. It is worth noting that this photograph was taken after 1906 when alterations were made to the chapel's front facade - a testament to evolving times and changing aesthetics. The photographer behind this snapshot is believed to be Samuel John Govier, whose keen eye for detail expertly captures every nuance of life in early 20th century Cornwall. Through his lens, we witness a simpler time where villagers strolled along cobbled streets and exchanged warm greetings with familiar faces. This remarkable print from Royal Cornwall Museum not only offers a glimpse into history but also serves as a reminder of the enduring beauty found in small villages like St Erth. It encapsulates an era filled with charm and tranquility that continues to captivate hearts even today.
