It's funny because even though the footage is silent, you can still "hear" the ambient noise in your head. The crashing of the surf, the squawking of the seagulls, children's laughter...it's all there if you "listen" closely. Beautiful footage of an equally beautiful place. I'd imagine things have changed a lot since then, while simultaneously not having changed all that much. Life seems simpler in Cornwall. I'd very much like to go there one day. Greetings from an American cousin across the pond!
Incredible. All that footage and not one motor vehicle to be seen anywhere, except boats. And to the beautiful girl walking by the river, I will remember you girl, whoever you were. You're gone but not forgotten. ❤Thanks for this experience.
What an incredible video, and no irritating music blasting all over it.
Just beautiful , and so very different from what I’m used to in the Australian bush
Greetings from Texas! Thank you for these wonderful films!
Haunting ❤
I think 8:56 is Wadebridge, there is a Francis Frith postcard of a similar view looking at the old bridge that crosses the Camel. As in the description 5:27- about 5:59 is Padstow, S Quay.
Timeless beauty 👌
Great stuff!
Thank You
Do you remember a time when footage like this could not be slowed down! :D
And then came the outsiders !!!!!
Fantastic! A couple of additions... pretty sure the segment at 5.27 is Sennen Cove and the bridge at 8.56 is Looe?
William Scantlebury and Kathleen Penter were my Great Grandparents both in Truro and Looe at the time of this film.
Hard to think we as a country were at war during this time, I guess these beautiful lands and people were what they were fighting for. My own grandfather would be soon going off to war with the Devonshire regiment.
Hiraeth.
if the dog was at least 2 years old he’s about 110 today prob dead though
Your point is
@@londo776 your mum likes my jokes before we have sex
Not much 'diversity' to be seen . . .
Boring contemporary comment, made far too often by others too. How about commenting about Cornwall ??!
@@ricksfilmrestoration5163 The comment was intended as a compliment, although inherent virtue-signalling fails to recognise it.
It's a beautiful part of England. I used to go there on holiday with parents back in the 1950s, on my own over the succeeding years as well.
I lived in Plymouth for a year and explored the area extensively. Of course, like all from 'up country', I was referred to as "a grockle". Their 'welcome' is superficial . . .
@@EllieMaes-Grandad You might get called a 'grockle' in parts of south west England but not in Cornwall; there you'd be an emmet.
@@Britonbear My colleagues at work (some living west of the Tamar) advised me of the term. Along with many others recruited with me that year, we were unappreciated in Plymouth too. However, walking home one evening, a young boy called me a "yardie" so I did feel some sense of accomplishment!
diversity is such a woke word but i understand what you mean
Cornwall needs to be an independent country
Woddee on about, pard
Why?
Or not.
@@peterperfect6015 Because it has a language and culture of its own, so therefore it does deserve to be independent
It has no industry or income. It’s funded by everyone else while you enjoy the untouched isolation. Just because the Cornish don’t like the rest of up the country and are spoilt and entitled doesn’t mean they should be independent. There’s no argue ing that Cornwall has its own language and is beautiful but so what? It’s still in the real world and the rest of the country have been destroyed ground up into dust and left to squalor while we graft in industry contributing. Cornish people sit on a beach and say they deserve more lol. You’ve all had it easy.
