EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum takes us back in time to around 1910, capturing the essence of Falmouth's Municipal Buildings on The Moor. Standing tall and proud, this architectural marvel housed both the fire station and town hall, serving as a symbol of civic pride for the people of Cornwall. In front of these magnificent buildings, we see an intriguing sight - the horse-drawn bus named "Victory". This mode of transportation was a common sight during that era, providing locals with a reliable means to navigate through bustling streets. It serves as a nostalgic reminder of simpler times when horsepower ruled the roads. The photograph also showcases elements that define its era. Cornish men and women can be seen going about their daily lives, perhaps running errands or engaging in lively conversations. Chimneys dotting nearby rooftops hint at cozy homes warmed by crackling fires during chilly winters. The railings lining the pavement add an elegant touch to this scene while street lamps cast their warm glow upon passersby after dusk falls. These details transport us into a world where life moved at a slower pace but was filled with charm and character. Although taken by an unknown photographer, this image preserves history within its frame. It invites us to reflect on how far we have come while cherishing our heritage and appreciating those who came before us – shaping Falmouth into what it is today.
