This tour was produced by the John Daniel Centre and Penlee House Gallery & Museum as part of a partnership project in 2019. It was created to explore Penzance’s history through the photography collection at Penlee House. The ten images were selected and researched by a group from the John Daniel Centre; you can visit the locations where these photographs were taken to compare the photographs to the views today. This tour was created for Penzance Selects 2019, a community-curated exhibition held at Penlee House Gallery & Museum from 23 November 2019 to 4 January 2020.
