Title A name given to the resource Trevaskis Collection Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Morrab Library Description An account of the resource The surname comes from the farm of Trevaskis standing close by Gwinear parish. W.J. Trevaskis was in a geographically-constrained way a successful local photographer. Evidence exists of a carte de visit taken in 1863 although he was first listed as a photographer in 1883. The business was run from the Leedstown house now called 'An Gernyk'. From 1889 Trevaskis had a branch studio at Nettles Hill in Helston. Carte de visit imprints of the later 1870s or the 1880s announce that he was at Leedstown on Mondays, Thursdays, and Saturdays; Porthleven, Tuesdays and Wednesdays; Breage on Fridays. Business continued into the early years of the 20th Century - it is not known when Mr Trevaskis died. The business was revived by his daughter Miss Polly Trevaskis who was listed as a photographer at Leedstown up to the start of the last war. Still Image A static visual representation.

Title A name given to the resource Zennor Wayside Museum Subject The topic of the resource Everyday life in rural Zennor Description An account of the resource The collection came from the Zennor Wayside Museum which was housed at the old mill in Zennor. It was privately run and when the owners retired the photograph were gifted to the Morrab Library. The following is taken from the Wayside Folk Museum Website: The natural features of land and sea ensured that the area around to Zennor was remote and inaccessible until around the start of the 19th century. Only pack animals and sledges brought goods to this part of Cornwall, as there were no roads. Such isolation helped to preserve both ancient implements and customs. Towards the middle of the 20th century, Colonel Freddie Hirst began collecting relics peculiar to Zennor which eventually became exhibits in the Wayside Museum. Today there are more than five thousand items in the collection, exhibited in sixteen different display areas. These include an extensive collection of photographs and detailed information about people who have lived in the area. Exhibits include waterwheels from the Cornish mining industry, a cobble's shop with an exhibition on the history of the museum, and an 18th century kitchen. There is also a mill building, containing original machinery and millstones, a collection of early agricultural implements and a blacksmith's forge. In addition there are lots of domestic implements, many of which can be handled to demonstrate their original use. Within the complex is a tea garden, gift shop and a children's museum with a quiz trail and certificate for children who participate. Zennor is situated on the coast road to Land's End, four miles west of St Ives. The museum is open daily between April and October each year.

Title A name given to the resource Pye Collection Description An account of the resource The collection consists of 422 photos which were donated by the St Just in Rosalind and St Mawes Heritage Group. The collection consists of images of people and views from a number of photographers who were working in Cornwall from the mid 19th Century. It seems that almost every town in Cornwall had one or more photographers working in studios. Brooks, Beringer, Burrow, Collenso, Gibson and Preston are just some of those. Many won awards for their work and won medals awarded by the Cornwall Polytechnic Society which opened in Falmouth in 1833. Carte-de-visite became very popular after 1854, often used as calling cards containing the photographic mount, there are many examples of this type. It is apparent that people turned up in their "Sunday Best" to be photographed , it is interesting to note the fashion changes over time from the Victorian era to the Edwardian. All the while changes were taking place with the photographic process, from plate and gradually to film and negative and the digital process that we have today. This collection is a very interesting record of the work of the Victorian photographer. Still Image A static visual representation.
