EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the early 1900s, we are transported back in time to the picturesque village of Penhallick, nestled within the enchanting landscape of Coverack, St Keverne in Cornwall. Standing elegantly amidst a well-maintained road/lane is Mr Webber, exuding an air of sophistication with his impeccable attire. As our gaze wanders through the frame, we cannot help but admire the meticulous care taken in preserving this charming fishing village. The properties on Mr Webber's left stand proudly, their facades reflecting both Edwardian elegance and Cornish charm. Each detail has been lovingly maintained over the years, showcasing a true sense of pride among its residents. The lane surface beneath Mr Webber's feet appears flawless; its smoothness inviting us to imagine leisurely strolls along its path. Boundary stones line either side of the road/lane with unwavering precision and grace - a testament to craftsmanship that has stood against time. Captured by an unknown photographer whose lens immortalized this moment forever, this image transports us into a world where simplicity intertwines with natural beauty. It invites us to explore not only Penhallick but also our own imagination as we envision life during those idyllic times. This remarkable photograph serves as a window into history and offers glimpses into a bygone era when coastal villages like Penhallick thrived on their fishing traditions and embraced their unique Cornish heritage.
