EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1979 showcases the historic Treganoon Farm in Lanlivery, Cornwall. The focal point of the image is the remarkable capstan house, a structure that once played an essential role in grinding and storing grain. Over time, this former agricultural hub underwent a transformation and was ingeniously converted into holiday accommodation known as Treganoon Round Barn. Photographed by Charles Woolf, this snapshot beautifully captures the essence of rural life in Cornwall during that era. The image exudes a sense of tranquility and nostalgia, transporting viewers back to a simpler time when agriculture was at the heart of local communities. The lush green fields surrounding Treganoon Farm are testament to its rich history in farming and agriculture. Cornish landscapes have long been renowned for their picturesque beauty, with rolling hills and vibrant meadows providing idyllic settings for farms like Treganoon. As we admire this photograph from Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, we can't help but feel a surge of joyous appreciation for the heritage preserved within these walls. This image serves as a reminder of how traditional practices can evolve while still honoring their roots—a true testament to human ingenuity. While it's unclear whether this particular print has any commercial use or not, what remains certain is its ability to transport us through time and connect us with our agricultural past—an invaluable glimpse into Cornwall's cultural tapestry.
