EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from September 1991, we are transported to the Milk Factory in Lostwithiel, Cornwall. The image captures a significant moment as the recently closed Lostwithiel Creamery is being dismantled. In the foreground, prospective Liberal Democrat candidate for South East Cornwall, Robin Teverson engages in conversation with three former Dairy Crest engineers who have found new employment with the company responsible for dismantling the creamery's main tower. From left to right, we see Nic Coon, Steve Wells, and Mark Gatehouse - all wearing safety helmets - who will soon embark on an extraordinary journey to Mexico. These skilled engineers will accompany the dismantled tower across oceans and continents to help re-erect it at its new location. The photograph beautifully encapsulates both change and resilience within a single frame. It serves as a poignant reminder of how industries evolve over time while highlighting individuals' adaptability amidst shifting circumstances. The determination displayed by these engineers represents not only their personal triumph but also symbolizes hope for future opportunities in an ever-changing world. Photographer Jonathan Barker skillfully captures this historic moment that would otherwise be lost to time. This remarkable image now resides within the archives of Royal Cornwall Museum, preserving a slice of local history forever etched into our collective memory.
