The Magic of Cornwall

The Magic of Cornwall - Old Cornwall Pages

The Magic of Cornwall presents a growing selection of images showing Cornwall as it used to look in the 18th and 19th Century. The photographs are taken from The Francis Frith Collection, an online image library of over 120,000 images taken all over Britain between 1860 and 1970 and covering 7000 locations. Prints, both mounted and framed and mounted are available to purchase from the Francis Frith site, just click on the link beside each picture to view the range of formats available. Each location here has about 10 selected images to view, though the Francis Frith site will often present many more. Have a good browse, I am sure you will find it a fascinating experience.
