EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1962, offering a glimpse into the interior of an out building at the Rectory in St John, Cornwall. The Grade II listed Rectory, later known as Nordon House, exudes timeless charm and architectural beauty. The stone wall forms a sturdy foundation for this structure, adorned with timber that partially covers its surface. Wooden beams gracefully stretch across the ceiling, adding character and warmth to the space. Located in the picturesque village of St John, this historic building overlooks St Johns lake - a branch of Hamoaze - standing proudly opposite Devonport town in the parish of St Germans. It is within these walls that countless stories have unfolded throughout history. Photographer Charles Woolf has skillfully captured this moment in time, preserving it for future generations to appreciate and admire. His keen eye highlights not only the physical elements but also invites viewers to imagine what life may have been like within these walls. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to an era where simplicity met elegance; where every crack on those timeworn beams tells a story waiting patiently to be discovered. This photograph serves as a testament to Cornish architecture's enduring allure and reminds us of our rich cultural heritage.
