Jigsaw Puzzles from Royal Cornwall Museum
New houses, St Georges Hill, Perranporth, Perranzabuloe, Cornwall. 1930s
Originally incorrectly listed in museum records as 450 pound houses in St Georges Road, Truro, the houses have been identified as No. 4 and No. 5 St Georges Hill, Perranporth. The semi-detached houses are seen nearing completion with scaffolding still in place and builders rubble visible. It is understood that the semi-detached houses seen on the right (No. 6 and No. 7) were demolished due to mundic block and were rebuilt without the bay windows on the ground floor.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 1930s, capturing a moment in time when new houses were being built on St Georges Hill in Perranporth, Cornwall. Originally misidentified as houses in Truro, further research has revealed that these are actually No. 4 and No. 5 St Georges Hill. The image showcases the semi-detached houses nearing completion, with scaffolding still standing tall and builders' rubble scattered around. It offers a glimpse into the construction process of these homes, highlighting the dedication and hard work put forth by the builders. Interestingly, it is known that two of the semi-detached houses seen on the right side of the photograph (No. 6 and No. 7) had to be demolished due to mundic block issues. These structures were later rebuilt without their original bay windows on the ground floor. Photographed by Arthur William Jordan, this historical snapshot not only documents architectural development but also provides valuable insight into housing trends during that era in Perranzabuloe's charming town of Perranporth. With its cornish charm evident through every detail captured within this frame - from street views to newly constructed homes - this print serves as a fascinating reminder of how our towns evolve over time while preserving their unique character.
