EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of Barton Row, a picturesque village nestled in the heart of St Kew, Cornwall. Taken in 1971 by the talented photographer Charles Woolf, this image offers a general view of the rear of a row of charming cottages, as seen from across a lush meadow. The buildings depicted here showcase the quintessential vernacular architecture that is synonymous with Cornish countryside charm. Each cottage exudes its own unique character and history, standing proudly amidst nature's embrace. The thatched roofs and stone walls tell tales of generations past while blending harmoniously with their surroundings. Barton Row transports us to an era where simplicity reigned supreme and community thrived. As we gaze upon this idyllic scene, we can almost hear children's laughter echoing through the air and envision villagers going about their daily lives with joyous contentment. Amongst these cottages lie names such as Joyce, Greenham, Elmview (or Elm View), each representing cherished homes filled with love and memories. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder that behind every door lies stories waiting to be told - stories woven into the fabric of Cornwall's rich heritage. Preserved within Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, this print invites us to appreciate not only its aesthetic appeal but also its historical significance. It encapsulates a moment frozen in time; an enduring testament to both Charles Woolf's artistic talent and Cornwall's everlasting allure.
