EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the picturesque village of St Ive in Cornwall, circa 1979. The focal point of this image is a charming slate hung house nestled next to the historic church of St Ive and Pensilva. Its front view showcases the unique architectural style that characterizes this region. The house, adorned with slates on its upper part, exudes an undeniable Cornish charm. The carefully arranged slates create a harmonious blend with the natural surroundings, as if nature itself had crafted this quaint cottage. This traditional construction technique not only adds visual appeal but also serves as protection against the elements. Adjacent to the parish church along the A390 road leading to Callington, this dwelling stands as a testament to Cornwall's rich history and cultural heritage. It embodies a sense of timelessness amidst ever-changing landscapes. Captured by photographer Charles Woolf, this image invites us into a world where simplicity meets beauty. Through his lens, Woolf captures not just bricks and mortar but also emotions and stories woven within these walls. As we gaze upon this photograph print from Royal Cornwall Museum, we cannot help but be transported into an era when life moved at a slower pace - where community spirit thrived and neighbors shared their joys and sorrows under one roof. Let us cherish this snapshot in time; let it remind us of our roots and inspire us to preserve our architectural treasures for generations yet unborn.
