This print from 1903-1904 showcases the Bosahan Quarry in Constantine, Cornwall. The image captures a general view of the quarry, with men proudly standing by cut granite blocks and a towering crane used for moving these heavy stones. Two men flank a horse-drawn cart, symbolizing the reliance on traditional methods of transportation during that era. The photograph offers an intimate glimpse into the daily lives of these hardworking individuals who toiled in this mineral extraction site. Some of them can be seen clutching their trusty tools - chisels and hammers - which were essential for their laborious tasks. These craftsmen dedicated themselves to extracting granite, an invaluable resource used extensively in building projects across Cornwall. The Freeman & Sons Penryn Collection preserves this remarkable piece of history, although the identity of its photographer remains unknown. This snapshot immortalizes not only the physicality involved in quarry work but also highlights the importance of teamwork as evidenced by workers collaborating seamlessly amidst piles of dressed stones. Every detail within this frame tells a story: chains hanging purposefully nearby, ladders leaning against rock faces waiting to be climbed once more. It is through images like these that we gain insight into our ancestors' dedication and resilience while shaping Cornwall's landscape through their tireless efforts at Mabe Quarries.
