EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting Lanyon Cromlech in Madron, Cornwall, back in October 1858. The ancient monument stands tall and proud, surrounded by a serene landscape. In this particular shot, a young girl can be seen standing next to one of the three support stones that make up the cromlech. The Lanyon Cromlech holds great historical significance as it was once part of an even more impressive formation. Sadly, during a violent storm in 1815, the monument collapsed into ruins. However, thanks to dedicated efforts nine years later, it was re-erected with meticulous care. Although one of the upright stones suffered severe damage and could not be replaced, its absence adds an air of mystery to this prehistoric site. Photographed by Dr John Wheeley Gough Gutch, this image beautifully captures both the grandeur and fragility of these megalithic structures from our neolithic past. These monumental dolmens stand as testaments to human ingenuity and perseverance throughout history. As we admire this photograph from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection today, let us remember that it is not just a commercial product but rather a window into our rich heritage. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come while urging us never to forget our roots or take for granted these awe-inspiring landmarks that connect us with generations long gone.
