EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1917 showcases the remarkable women of the First World War Women's Land Army at Tregavethan Farm in Truro, Cornwall. Mounted on workhorses, these brave ladies exude strength and determination as they contribute to the war effort. From left to right, we believe their names are Ms. Trejeweth and Ms. Nora Lock, Ms. I. Crowther and Ms. Dorothy Phyllis Martin, Ms. Vera Dunfrane and Ms. Northey, with an unknown companion named Ms. Brown by their side. Mrs. Ford stands confidently beside the horse on the right-hand side while another saddle lies gracefully in the foreground—a testament to their tireless work ethic and dedication to serving their country during this challenging time. Dressed in practical uniforms consisting of boots, gaiters, felt hats, and pale fabric overalls; these women epitomize resilience amidst adversity. Photographed by Arthur William Jordan—an artist who skillfully captures both beauty and history—this image transports us back to a pivotal moment in our nation's past when women stepped forward fearlessly into roles traditionally reserved for men. As we reflect upon this poignant snapshot from WWI—the Great War—we honor not only these specific individuals but also countless other unsung heroines who played vital roles behind-the-scenes throughout Cornwall during that era.
