More about this scene

Also known as St Sampson's, Golant on the west bank of the Fowey was cut off from the main estuary, save for a bridge, by the embankment of the Lostwithiel to Fowey railway in 1869. This embankment, seen here on the right, enclosed a harbour around the old shoreline. The railway had become disused by the time of this photograph, and was not re-opened for another four years.

Diana Luck
Many years of happy days at Bodriggan as Diana Luck's nephew, one of many! Sadly she died early this year but will never be forgotten. Great memories of Barbara and Gerry at The Fisherman's Arms, beer straight from the barrel, roaring fire and darts. Also great times had with George Luck (her husband, my uncle) on Ruda out of Fowey. Happy to be contacted Mark David

Genealogy & Research Images

Despite over 20 years’ work on the archive, these scans have still not been individually checked and may prove to be damaged, faded, or not of sufficient quality to ever be offered in our full product range. However, if you would particularly like to buy one of these please get in touch quoting the Frith negative number,(s) the town name and size of print you would like to buy. On receipt of your enquiry our archivist will check the scan and advise you if the quality is good enough.

What is an Album?

An album is a way to save a selection of Frith photos, maps and memories that are of interest to you.

Creating an Album enables you to make short lists and then make a final selection from the album. In particular it makes ordering things like calendars much easier - simply create an Album of the 12 photos you like and then use the Album when placng your order - our order process will give you this option.

You can create as many Albums as you want, so perhaps make one for your hometown, where you live now, where your parents live now etc.
