EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from April 1991, we witness a momentous occasion as Lostwithiel Golf and Country Club opens its doors for the first time. The esteemed Mayor of Lostwithiel, John Reed, takes center stage on the lush green course, ready to test his swing amidst an atmosphere teeming with excitement. Standing by his side are two key figures who have played instrumental roles in bringing this dream to fruition - Martin Hammond, the Course Professional, and Robin Stephens, co-owner of the club. As Mayor Reed prepares to take his shot, one can't help but admire the picturesque backdrop that Cornwall offers; rolling hills and breathtaking views stretching as far as the eye can see. With a firm grip on his golf clubs and donning his mayoral chain with pride, he epitomizes both leadership and camaraderie. Photographer Jonathan Barker skillfully captures this historic moment in time when sport meets community spirit. This image serves as a testament to how sports facilities like Lostwithiel Golf and Country Club not only provide recreational opportunities but also foster a sense of unity within towns such as Lostwithiel. The combination of tradition (the mayoral chain) and leisure (golf clubs) showcased against Cornwall's stunning landscape creates an evocative visual narrative that celebrates local achievements while highlighting the natural beauty that surrounds us all.
