EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum takes us back in time to the picturesque town of Wadebridge, Cornwall, during the 1880s. The south view captured in this image showcases a bustling scene filled with maritime activity and architectural marvels. In the foreground, we are greeted by Thomas Martins timber yard, a testament to the region's rich history of shipbuilding and trade. The sight of ships at the quayside further emphasizes Wadebridge's significance as a thriving port town. As we gaze into the distance, our eyes are drawn towards an impressive structure that dominates the landscape - none other than the iconic 15th-century bridge across River Camel. Originally known simply as "Wade" this charming settlement earned its current name after Reverend Lovibond oversaw construction of this magnificent bridge. Stretching over 320 feet long with seventeen arches, it stands as both a functional crossing point and an architectural masterpiece. The photographer behind this remarkable snapshot remains unknown; nevertheless, their lens has preserved a moment frozen in time for future generations to appreciate. This print serves as a window into Wadebridge's past - transporting us to an era where commerce thrived on riverbanks and wooden vessels sailed these waters. As we delve into its intricate details and soak up its historical significance, let us cherish this glimpse into Wadebridge's heritage while celebrating Cornwall's vibrant past.
