EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Newquay, Cornwall, probably in the 1920s. The image captures a vibrant scene at the junction of Gover Lane and Bank Street. Amidst the lively atmosphere, two majestic horses draw our attention as they lead a circus procession through town. A lady can be seen riding side-saddle on one of these magnificent creatures, adding an air of elegance and grace to the spectacle. As we explore this snapshot further, our eyes are drawn to the corner where a Co-operative shop stands proudly. Its presence reminds us of a bygone era when local businesses thrived within close-knit communities. Onlookers gather around, their curiosity piqued by this unusual sight unfolding before them. Amongst them is a man peering down from his office window above the shop—a surveyor perhaps—observing with keen interest. The photographer responsible for capturing this moment remains unknown, but their skillful composition allows us to step into history and witness this slice of life in early 20th century Cornwall. It serves as a reminder that even amidst rapid societal changes and technological advancements, there is something timeless about small towns like Newquay—their charm endures across generations
