EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a bygone era in Porthtowan, Cornwall, around 1900. In this idyllic coastal setting, a large group of people and their tents have gathered in an old field under the majestic Westcliff. The beach beckons just beyond, promising endless days of sun-soaked relaxation and salty sea breezes. The focal point of the image is a charming house that would later transform into The Commodore before becoming The Unicorn public house. Its sturdy presence stands as a testament to the area's rich history and evolution over time. Nestled amidst the rugged beauty of Cornwall's coastline, it serves as both witness and participant in countless tales shared within its walls. The scene exudes an air of simplicity and tranquility; families enjoying leisurely picnics on the grassy field while children playfully chase seagulls overhead. This snapshot from yesteryear evokes nostalgia for simpler times when life revolved around nature's wonders rather than modern distractions. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece captured by an unknown photographer, we are transported back to an era where industry had not yet left its mark on these shores. It reminds us to cherish our natural surroundings and preserve them for future generations to enjoy.
