EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, taken in the 1930s, we see an old Wheelwright's barn nestled in the picturesque hamlet of Gummows Shop, located near the popular seaside town of Newquay in Cornwall, England. The name of the hamlet, with its strange moniker, adds an intriguing layer of mystery to the image. Wheelwrights were skilled craftsmen who specialized in the repair and construction of wheels for carts, wagons, and carriages. Their shops were an essential part of rural communities, providing essential services for farmers and merchants. The Wheelwright's barn in Gummows Shop appears to be an old, stone building with large timber doors, which would have housed the various tools and machinery used in the wheel-making process. The identity of Gummow, the namesake of the hamlet, remains a subject of intrigue. It is unclear whether he was the proprietor of the Wheelwright's shop or if the name was derived from an earlier resident. Regardless, the name has persisted, adding to the rich history and folklore of this charming corner of Cornwall. The photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, with the barn standing proudly against a backdrop of rolling hills and lush greenery. The scene is one of tranquility and simplicity, a testament to the hardworking people who once relied on the Wheelwright's skills to keep their livelihoods moving. Today, the barn may be a shadow of its former self, but its legacy lives on, reminding us of the importance of local industries and the stories they hold.
