EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum takes us back to the charming town of West Looe in Cornwall, around 1930. The view captured is simply breathtaking - a picturesque scene showcasing Looe bridge and the river at low tide, as seen from the bottom of Beech Terrace. In this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to an era where South Coast towns and ports thrived on their vibrant fishing industry. The image reveals a bustling quayside with boats gently bobbing along the river and lining up against the harbor walls. It's fascinating to see how these vessels played such a vital role in connecting communities and sustaining livelihoods during that period. The foreground of this photograph depicts people going about their daily lives, perhaps engaged in conversations or admiring the tranquil beauty surrounding them. Their presence adds depth and character to this historic moment captured by photographer S. C. Fox. The estuary water glistens under sunlight, reflecting its serene surroundings like a mirror. This particular vantage point offers an enchanting perspective of West Looe's landscape, highlighting both its natural beauty and man-made structures such as roads and bridges. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of Cornish history, it serves as a reminder of how integral coastal towns were to Britain's maritime heritage. This image encapsulates not only the charm of West Looe but also pays homage to generations who relied on these waters for sustenance and trade.
