Framed Prints From Royal Cornwall Museum
Framed Print of Aftermath of fire at Tehidy, Illogan, Cornwall. February 1919
Side view of main block after the great fire of 26th February 1919. The fire is still smouldering and people can be seen dealing with the devastation under the watchful eye of a policeman. The manor of Tehidy was owned by the Basset family who prospered from mining and their vast estate. The 40 bedroom mansion house seen in the photograph was built in 1855 to replace the earlier mansion of 1734. The manor was sold in 1916 which ended 700 years of Basset rule. The house was acquired for the treatment of tuberculosis sufferers and handed over to Cornwall County Council on Whit Monday 20th May 1918. The fire devastated the building two weeks after the hospital opened and it was rebuilt by the County Council. Photographer: Arthur William Jordan.
