EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 1900s, capturing a bustling scene on Fore Street in Probus, Cornwall. The image showcases a mixed group of individuals, predominantly children, striking poses for the photographer's lens. Interestingly, two figures can be seen peering out from the upstairs rooms of the Hawkins Arms pub. Above its door proudly hangs a sign displaying the name "Pollard" while another advertises "Good Accommodation for Cyclists". This charming detail suggests that this establishment catered not only to locals but also welcomed weary travelers passing through. In the distance stands the iconic Jubilee Lamp, casting its warm glow over this historic street. Its presence serves as a reminder of Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee celebration and adds an air of grandeur to this quaint Cornish village. The photograph was skillfully captured by Samuel John Govier, who has expertly preserved this snapshot of Edwardian life in Cornwall. It offers us a glimpse into a bygone era when horse-drawn carriages traversed these cobbled streets and community spirit thrived within these walls. Displayed at Royal Cornwall Museum, this evocative print transports viewers back in time and allows them to immerse themselves in the rich history and charm of Probus Churchtown.
