EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the picturesque village of Pengenna in St Kew, Cornwall, during the year 1959. The image showcases a general view of the front of a Grade II listed house that dates back to the late 16th or early 17th century. Its timeless charm is evident as we marvel at its well-preserved vernacular architecture. The photographer, Charles Woolf, skillfully captures not only the grandeur of this historic house but also offers us a glimpse into its surrounding garden. The carefully manicured greenery adds an enchanting touch to this already idyllic scene. Pengenna House stands proudly amidst the serene countryside, serving as a reminder of Cornwall's rich heritage. It exudes an air of elegance and history that transports us to another era altogether. One can't help but imagine all the stories and memories that have been woven within these walls over centuries past. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph, it becomes clear why buildings like Pengenna House are treasured landmarks in our cultural landscape. They serve as guardians of tradition and symbols of continuity for future generations to appreciate. With every detail captured by Woolf's lens - from the intricate architectural features to the sprawling gardens - we are reminded once again why Cornwall holds such allure for both locals and visitors alike. This snapshot encapsulates everything that makes Cornish villages so special – their unique blend of natural beauty, historic houses like Pengenna Manor, and charming rural life that continues
