EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the timeless beauty of St Mawes, Cornwall in the 1920s. The waterfront houses line the picturesque village on the end of the Roseland Peninsula, creating a charming scene that is quintessentially Cornish.
St Mawes, also known as Lannvowsedh in Cornish, is situated on the eastern side of Falmouth harbour, overlooking the Carrick Roads waterway. The village was once two separate hamlets that have now merged into one cohesive community.
The architecture of the waterfront houses reflects traditional Cornish style, with whitewashed walls and slate roofs blending seamlessly with their coastal surroundings. The narrow streets wind their way through the village, offering glimpses of sea views and quaint cottages at every turn.
As you gaze upon this vintage photograph, you can almost feel yourself transported back in time to a simpler era when life moved at a slower pace. The tranquility of St Mawes captured in this image serves as a reminder of why Cornwall's rugged coastlines and charming villages continue to captivate visitors from near and far.
Let this enchanting glimpse into St Mawes' past inspire your own journey to explore this idyllic corner of England's West Country.
