Welcome to St Just and St Mawes Virtual Heritage Centre.

 

The heritage group was set up in November 2007 and although we have been unable to find a suitable premises to date, we've collected many old photographs and staged 3 exhibitions, the first in October 2009, about St Mawes school and in October 2010, about carnivals past.  Our third exhibition on the History of the Cornish Gigs was held  Wednesday 26th to Saturday 29th October 2011 in The Millennium Rooms, St Mawes. We screened the film "Remembering Rosemarie" by local film maker Shauna Osborne-Dowle on Friday 28th at 7.00 in the same place.  Watch the trailer here.

All photographs and ‘memories’ posted here are for your enjoy-ment, however, if you find a discrepancy in any of the details on this site, please do let us know. In the mean time, take a walk along old streets, view old buildings and maybe even discover some familiar faces. And if you have some historical photos yourself that you’d be willing to share, then email us with them and we’ll be glad to post them for everyone’s benefit.

 

Alternatively, maybe you have an old recollection or memory you’d like to share about St Mawes' or St Just’s bygone era? Or you remember an old story that you recall hearing? If so, we’d be glad to include that in our ‘memories section. But for now, just relax and enjoy the ride down memory lane...
