Mystery Photograph

I got this photo from my Gran years ago and it's in such a state I can't make out where it is. Anyone able to recognise the building or what is going on?
Mystery solved! See below. [url=http://picturepenzance.co.uk/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=8352] A link to how this scene looks now. [/url]
It does, doesn t it. The whole scene looks Cornish to me, so I m pretty sure it is down here somewhere. Could it be St Just area?
 
Location the old Wesleyan Sunday school at St. Just, opposite what used to be the Seabird resaurant. Possibly the annual sunday school treat. Denanmor, I am 100% certain of the location. To the left of the banner is the top gate of the Junior school. Surely tpp can make this out now. The small paned window under banner would have been Sheila,s sweet shop of modern day. (1970 s) Door to left of window and sun blind to left of door.
 
It certainly looks as if you re right Dingdongd. For me, Sheila s sweet shop is certainly where you say though i don t recall the Old Wesleyan Sunday School building at all. Is it still there. if so I went around with my eyes closed in the 1970-80s.
 
The iron railings were removed during the war years, but the windows etc are still the same. It has been converted into a house.
 
There s been a gallery and a bandb in there in recent years I think, not sure if they were concurrent.
