EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the charming village of St Just in Penwith, Cornwall, in the year 1967. The focal point of this snapshot is the Angwin Brothers butchers shop, nestled in Market Square (also known as Commercial Square). With its prominent position and historic significance, it's hard to miss this building that once housed the Capital and Counties Bank. The photographer, Charles Woolf, skillfully captures a slice of local life frozen in time. The image showcases not only the architectural beauty of this Cornish gem but also provides a glimpse into everyday activities. As we peer through the lens, we can almost hear snippets of conversations between villagers going about their day. The shop fronts lining Market Square exude an old-world charm that transports us back to simpler times. Each storefront tells its own story with unique signage and displays enticing passersby with their wares. It's evident from this photograph that St Just was a bustling hub where locals gathered for their daily needs. Joyce Greenham's meticulous documentation allows us to appreciate these historical moments even decades later. This particular print serves as a testament to her passion for preserving Cornwall's rich heritage through visual storytelling. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece captured by Charles Woolf under Joyce Greenham's guidance, we are reminded of how much history lies within our quaint villages and how important it is to cherish these memories for generations to come.
