EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the early 1900s transports us to Boscawen Bridge in Truro, Cornwall. The image beautifully captures a serene moment as the River Allen flows at full tide beneath the bridge. In the foreground, graceful swans glide across the water, adding an air of tranquility to the scene. As our gaze extends beyond the river, we catch sight of two prominent establishments that were part of this bustling cityscape. M. L. Blamey & Sons agricultural store stands tall with its inviting storefront, offering a glimpse into Truro's thriving agricultural industry during that era. Adjacent to it is John H. Radmore's corn, flour and cake merchant shop, which likely played a significant role in providing essential food supplies for both locals and visitors alike. Moored by the bridge are several small boats, their presence hinting at Truro's connection to maritime activities and trade routes that contributed to its growth as a prosperous Cornish city. The photographer behind this remarkable composition is Arthur Philp who skillfully captured not just an ordinary view but also managed to encapsulate elements of daily life along with natural beauty within one frame. This print serves as a precious window into history—a snapshot frozen in time—allowing us to appreciate Truro's rich heritage while marveling at its picturesque charm even today.
