EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to Tredrea, Perranarworthal, Cornwall, around 1910. The image showcases a grand view of the front of the house, exuding an air of elegance and history. Standing proudly on the corner are two servant ladies, adding a touch of life to this snapshot from the past. Tredrea itself has a rich heritage dating back to the 18th century when it was built by the esteemed Basset family of Tehidy. Over time, it witnessed various occupants who left their mark on its walls and grounds. Michael Henry Williams and later Colonel Godfrey T. Williams were among those fortunate enough to call this magnificent estate home. As years passed, Tredrea underwent transformations while still retaining its charm and allure. It eventually became known as Tredrea Manor Hotel before being converted into residential apartments for modern living. The photographer behind this remarkable piece is Arthur Philp, whose lens captured not only the physical beauty but also preserved a slice of Cornish history for generations to come. This print serves as a window into another era—a testament to Cornwall's architectural splendor and its ability to adapt with changing times. It invites us to imagine ourselves strolling through these hallowed halls or engaging in conversations with those who once graced these very grounds.
