EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the heart of St Tudy, a charming village nestled in the picturesque county of Cornwall. The year is 1959, and we find ourselves standing outside the entrance to the village church, gazing upon a scene that exudes timeless beauty. In this reverse view captured by photographer Charles Woolf, our attention is immediately drawn to the foreground where we see an old-fashioned water pump and a sturdy granite trough. These rustic elements stand proudly in the Square outside the Church, serving as a reminder of simpler times when community life revolved around shared resources. The atmosphere depicted in this image is one of tranquility and serenity. The quaint cottages lining either side of the street seem frozen in time, their stone walls weathered by years gone by. A sense of harmony permeates through every corner; it's as if time itself has slowed down within these ancient streets. As we take in this snapshot from history, we can't help but imagine villagers going about their daily lives - children playing joyfully on cobbled paths while adults engage in friendly conversation or tend to their chores. This photograph captures not just a physical place but also an intangible essence - that indescribable feeling of belonging and community spirit that makes St Tudy so special. Thanks to Joyce Greenham's dedication to preserving Cornish heritage at Royal Cornwall Museum, we are able to relish these glimpses into our past without commercial intentions. Let us cherish this
