EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a glimpse of history at The Bush Inn in Crosstown, Morwenstow, Cornwall in 1958. The image showcases the enchanting 13th-century thatched building with a quaint notice stating "Closed on Sundays". Little did anyone know that a devastating fire would ravage the iconic thatched roof just ten years later in 1968. Despite this tragedy, the interior of the pub has managed to preserve its authentic charm with low beams, crackling open fires, and exposed stone work. Photographed by Charles Woolf, this image transports us back to an era where historic pubs like The Bush Inn were cherished community gathering places. Nestled amidst Cornish countryside and rural beauty, it stood as a testament to tradition and warmth. Its significance extended beyond mere refreshment; it was a hub for locals and visitors alike seeking solace or jovial company. The loss of its thatch may have altered its external appearance forever but failed to diminish its timeless allure. This photograph serves as both a nostalgic reminder of what once was and an invitation to imagine the stories woven within those ancient walls. As we admire this snapshot from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, let us appreciate the resilience displayed by The Bush Inn throughout time – standing tall despite adversity while preserving its rich heritage for generations to come.
