EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 1900s, capturing the grandeur of Tremorvah House's Entrance Lodge in Truro, Cornwall. The image offers a glimpse into the past as we stand on the road, gazing towards the magnificent drive leading up to this remarkable country estate. Built in 1845 by Sir Philip Prothero Smith, a prominent figure who served as Mayor of Truro four times and Under Sheriff of Cornwall, Tremorvah House was envisioned as a haven for himself and his beloved wife, Lady P. Smith. This stately residence stands as a testament to their love and ambition. The photographer behind this exquisite shot is Arthur Philp, whose skilled lens captures every intricate detail of this architectural gem. From its imposing entrance gate to the meticulously landscaped grounds that surround it, every element exudes an air of elegance and sophistication. As we admire this photograph print from Royal Cornwall Museum, we are transported back to an era where opulent estates like Tremorvah House were symbols of wealth and prestige. It serves as a reminder of our rich heritage and how these historic landmarks continue to shape our understanding of Cornish history
