EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1973, capturing a close-up of the enchanting Old Toll House in St Stephens, Launceston, Cornwall. The skilled photographer behind this image is none other than Charles Woolf. Nestled on the corner of Roydon Road and St Stephens Hill, this historic building exudes an undeniable charm that transports us to a bygone era. Its weathered stone walls tell tales of countless travelers who once passed through its doors, paying their tolls as they journeyed along Cornish streets. The Old Toll House stands as a testament to the rich history and heritage of Launceston. It evokes feelings of nostalgia and curiosity about what life was like during simpler times. As we gaze at this photograph, we can almost imagine hearing the clatter of horse-drawn carriages passing by or catching glimpses of locals going about their daily routines. In an age where progress often overshadows tradition, images like these remind us to appreciate our architectural treasures and preserve them for future generations. The Old Toll House serves as a reminder that even amidst modern developments, pockets of history still exist within our towns and cities. Thanks to Charles Woolf's keen eye for detail and composition, we are granted a glimpse into this charming slice of Cornish history – one that fills our hearts with joyce (a sense) and greenham (a feeling) every time we encounter it at Royal Cornwall Museum.
