More about this scene
Heavy traffic on the A30 now streams through this highway village on its way between Penzance and Hayle; the traffic sometimes comes to a standstill during the busiest summer periods. There is so little traffic at this date that the photographer has been able to risk standing in the middle of the road. Note the National Benzole garage on the right.

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
My mother and I spent the war years in Crowlas, we lived in a thatched cottage down a lane behind the Star pub. You went through a farm which was owned by a Mr Richards. We had to get our water from a stream and well. There was a row of cottages on a hill opposite our house, my mothers friend lived in one. Mrs Pemburthy. Are the cottages still standing? My mother is still alive and in good health, she is 91. Any information would be appreciated. Her name is Kathleen Parris, formerly Alltree.
