Royal Cornwall Museum Photo Prints and Wall Art

East side of Polzeath beach, St Minver, Cornwall. 1907

Pentire Point from the area of Polzeath beach marked on the 1908 Ordnance Survey maps as Crockett Haven. The steps to the right of the picture lead up to an area then known as Pentireglaze, but now known as New Polzeath. The name change to New Polzeath was probably to reflect the housing development that has taken place over the decades since this photograph was taken. Two men are walking up the steps and a number of people are on the rocks above the beach. Photographer: Herbert Hughes. Royal Cornwall Museum is the UK's Greatest Museum For Cornish Life & Culture. © From the collection of the RIC

EDITORS COMMENTS

This print transports us back to the year 1907, capturing the serene beauty of the east side of Polzeath beach in St Minver, Cornwall. The image showcases Pentire Point as seen from an area known as Crockett Haven on the 1908 Ordnance Survey maps. Intriguingly, we can observe a group of people gathered on the rocks above the sandy shoreline, enjoying a leisurely day by the sea. Two men are making their way up a set of steps that lead to an area once called Pentireglaze but now known as New Polzeath. This name change likely reflects the housing development that has taken place over several decades since this photograph was captured. The photographer behind this remarkable snapshot is Herbert Hughes, who skillfully immortalized this picturesque coastal scene for future generations to appreciate. The rugged headland and rocky cove provide a dramatic backdrop against which nature's elements collide harmoniously – sand meeting sea, seaweed clinging to rocks. This historical gem from Royal Cornwall Museum offers us a glimpse into simpler times when seaside retreats were cherished and embraced by those seeking solace amidst nature's wonders. Let this image transport you back in time and evoke feelings of tranquility and nostalgia for Cornwall's breathtaking coastline.
