EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the 1920s and join these three ladies on a leisurely journey through Cornwall's picturesque countryside. This photograph, taken by Arthur William Jordan, captures the trio perched on the back of a vintage caravan as it makes its way along the winding roads. In the background, the iconic St Agnes to Truro horse bus trundles along, adding a charming touch to this already idyllic scene.
The women's stylish attire and elegant hats evoke a sense of sophistication and freedom, while their relaxed demeanor suggests they're enjoying every moment of their adventure. The dog trotting alongside them adds an extra layer of joy to this already delightful image.
This snapshot not only provides a glimpse into Cornwall's rich history but also highlights the importance of transportation in rural areas during this era. The horse-drawn bus was a vital lifeline for many communities, connecting towns and villages across the region.
As you gaze upon this enchanting photograph, imagine yourself transported to a bygone era when life moved at a slower pace and simple pleasures were savored. Let your imagination run wild as you picture these women chatting with friends or family members who might be waiting at one of the stops along the route.
