EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the charming Penrose village in St Ervan, Cornwall, during what is believed to be the 1920s. The image captures a picturesque road junction that exudes a sense of tranquility and simplicity. In the foreground stands a traditional red post box, set against a backdrop of white painted brickwork. Behind it lies the village's Post Office building, emanating an air of warmth and community. To the left of the post box, we notice another intriguing structure adorned with curtains. This building bears two signs: one proudly displaying "TELEPHONE" likely associated with the Post Office's services, and another sign reading "GARAGE TO LET". These signs hint at both modernity and opportunities for growth within this idyllic countryside setting. The photographer behind this nostalgic snapshot remains unknown but has skillfully captured not only architectural details but also an essence of life in Penrose village during this era. It invites viewers to imagine strolling along these peaceful streets where neighbors gather at the Post Office or perhaps discuss potential business ventures at the available garage space. This evocative print from Royal Cornwall Museum transports us back to simpler times when small villages like Penrose thrived on close-knit communities and shared aspirations for progress. It serves as a testament to Cornwall's rich history while reminding us of its enduring charm that continues to captivate visitors today.
