EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum takes us back to a significant moment in history - the construction of a new viaduct in Hayle, Cornwall. Captured between 1884 and 1885, this image showcases a large group of dedicated workers laboring tirelessly to build a sturdy stone viaduct that would replace Brunel's original timber structure, which had served since its opening in 1852. The photograph transports us to an era where manual labor was at the heart of progress. The crowd gathered here represents the collective effort and determination required to undertake such an ambitious project. Each workman plays their part, meticulously placing stones upon stones with unwavering precision. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in time, our eyes are drawn not only to the industrious workers but also to the picturesque backdrop surrounding them. Nestled amidst rolling hills and framed by haystacks, this scene epitomizes rural charm juxtaposed against human ingenuity. It is fascinating how technology has evolved over time; however, it is equally important to remember those who laid the foundations for progress through sheer hard work and perseverance. This print serves as a testament to their dedication and craftsmanship. Through preserving moments like these within our museums' walls, we honor both our past achievements and those who made them possible. Let this image transport you back in time as you marvel at the remarkable feat accomplished by these unsung heroes building bridges - quite literally - towards a brighter future for generations yet unborn.
