EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in this timeless print is a momentous occasion that marked the culmination of Lostwithiel's 800th anniversary year. In December 1989, amidst the serene beauty of Cornwall, a symbolic act took place - the planting of a tree in the grounds of the Community Centre. The significance of this event lies not only in its commemoration but also in its representation of unity and growth within the community. Standing proudly from left to right are four individuals who played pivotal roles during this historic ceremony. Warren Nicholls, Deputy Mayor at that time, exudes determination as he holds a spade firmly in his hands, ready to dig into fertile soil. Beside him stands Paul Brewer, Chairperson of Lostwithiel 800 Committee, radiating pride and accomplishment for their successful efforts throughout the anniversary year. Rob Peareth from Parks Committee joins them with an air of responsibility and dedication towards preserving nature's gifts. And finally, Dennis Hutchings takes center stage as Mayor; his presence embodies leadership and vision for Lostwithiel's prosperous future. Photographer Jonathan Barker skillfully captures this poignant moment when these esteemed figures come together to honor tradition while embracing progress. This photograph serves as a testament to both history and hope – reminding us all that even amidst changing times, our roots remain steadfastly grounded.
