EDITORS COMMENTS
Transported back in time to the bustling streets of Newham Road, Truro, Cornwall. This print from the 1930s offers a glimpse into a bygone era. Standing on the other side of a weathered wall at Harveys Timber Yard, we peer over and witness a vibrant cityscape unfolding before our eyes. The scene is alive with activity as workers diligently go about their daily tasks amidst stacks of timber and tools. The unmistakable aroma of freshly cut wood lingers in the air, mingling with the distant scent of industry emanating from the Gas Works beyond. The photographer's identity may remain unknown, but their lens has captured an invaluable moment frozen in time. Cornish charm permeates every aspect of this image; from the quaint architecture lining Newham Road to the meandering river that gracefully winds its way through this historic city. It serves as a reminder that even amidst progress and change, there are elements that endure throughout generations. As we gaze upon this snapshot from yesteryears, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also reflect on how far Truro has come since then. This print transports us across decades and invites us to immerse ourselves in Cornwall's rich heritage – an invitation we gladly accept.
