EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1973 transports us back in time to the quaint village of Madron, Cornwall. The focal point of this image is the charming Toll House at Tremethick Cross, standing proudly on the roadside. Captured by photographer Charles Woolf, this snapshot encapsulates a moment frozen in history. The Toll House itself exudes an air of nostalgia and rustic beauty.

It serves as a reminder that even amidst progress and change, there are remnants like these that endure as cherished relics.
