Malpas Landing, Cornwall - A Glimpse into the Past

EDITORS COMMENTS
. Step back in time with this print from the early 1900s, showcasing a picturesque scene at Malpas landing. The image transports us to an era when rowing boats were a common mode of transport along the tranquil river estuary near Truro. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness a group of rowing boats brimming with passengers eagerly preparing to embark from the foreshore. Each boat is filled with individuals adorned in traditional Cornish attire, their hats shielding them from the sun's rays and adding a touch of elegance to their ensemble. One lady stands out among the crowd as she gracefully holds up her parasol, providing respite from both heat and glare. The calm waters reflect the surrounding beauty of Malpas - its lush greenery and charming riverside cottages standing proudly on its banks. This idyllic setting serves as a reminder of simpler times when waterways were bustling hubs for transportation and social gatherings. Preserved by history's hands, this photograph has found its way into Royal Cornwall Museum's collection; however, it remains shrouded in mystery as no photographer is credited for capturing such an exquisite moment. Allow yourself to be captivated by this remarkable glimpse into Cornwall's past – where cornish culture intertwines with nature's splendor against a backdrop of flowing waters at Malpas landing.
