EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Woodkeepers cottages in Tregothnan, St Michael Penkivel, Cornwall during the early 1900s. Nestled within the picturesque landscape, these cottages served as humble abodes for workers on the Boscawen family's estate. With a rich history dating back to 1334, Tregothnan has been cherished by generations of the Boscawen family. The house itself was reconstructed by Edward Boscawen (1787-1841), who held the titles of fourth Viscount and First Earl of Falmouth. Situated near an older mansion site, this grand residence stands as a testament to their enduring legacy. Tregothnan boasts Cornwall's largest historic garden, which is steeped in beauty and heritage. Although it remains open to the public only once a year over a single weekend, its allure captivates visitors from far and wide. Photographed by Arthur William Jordan with great skill and attention to detail, this image showcases not just a mere collection of buildings but also tells a story about life on this remarkable estate. The rustic charm emanating from these quaint cottages evokes images of simpler times when hardworking individuals found solace amidst nature's embrace. As we gaze upon this print today, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how Cornish workers lived harmoniously with their surroundings at Woodkeepers cottages - an enchanting glimpse into our past that continues to resonate with us today
