The British Equestrian Federation (BEF) is launching the first annual ‘Give Horses a Go’ day on 13 September 2015 – giving people the chance to get closer to horses and try riding for free – so there’s no better time to discover all that a trip to the stables has to offer. Endorsed by Sport England, under their popular This Girl Can campaign, This Girl Can Ride aims to get women aged 26-plus to try something horsey. Whether it’s a simple visit to a participating riding school to meet some of the horses, or trying a riding lesson, the campaign kicks off with a national ‘Give Horses a Go’ day on 13 September. And if you have ridden before, now might be the time to get back into the saddle – the Give Horses a Go days are open to returning riders as well as new ones.

    Registered Charity No. 105565 NEWSLETTER 139 October 2015 Registered Charity No. 1055654 Boscawen-un Circle, St Buryan. Painting copyright by Millie Holman. 2014 A Reinterpretation of the Rock Art at Boscawen-ûn Stone Circle: Thomas Goskar FSA In 1986 Ian Cooke first recorded, on the north-east side of the central stone at Boscawen-ûn stone circle, the presence of a pair of carvings interpreted as representations of stone axes. This remarkable discovery is relatively obscure and beyond the initial plans to record their location, and beyond Peter Herring’s excellent report in 2000, little research has been undertaken. In early July 2015 the author was kindly taken to Boscawen-ûn by Adrian Rodda and shown the carvings. During this visit the central stone was recorded using photogrammetry, a technique which uses photographs to create a highly detailed 3D surface model. Close analysis of the resulting 3D model of the central stone revealed the carvings clearly. The model was straightened so that they could be inspected more closely. Surface colour was removed and digital techniques were employed to accentuate any surface features. The results were surprising. Fig1.Depth Image of the NE (inner leaning face) of the central stone. Fig 2(Right)). Accessibility shaded image. The carvings appear to represent not two stone axes but a pair of feet, soles outwards, carved in low relief. A row of “toes” can be discerned, especially on the right- hand foot. They bear a striking resemblance, albeit weathered and on coarse Land’s End granite, to those recorded at Dolmen du Petit-Mont at Arzon in Brittany.

  • Cornwall & Isles of Scilly Landscape Character Study
    CORNWALL AND ISLES OF SCILLY LANDSCAPE CHARACTER STUDY Overview and Technical Report Final Report May 2007 Forward The Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Landscape Character Study 2005-2007 has been developed as a joint project between the local authorities in Cornwall, the National Trust and the AONB units of Cornwall, the Tamar Valley and the Isles of Scilly supported by the Countryside Agency (now Natural England). Diacono Associates in conjunction with White Consultants were appointed in 2005 to undertake a Landscape Character Assessment for Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. This updates the Cornwall Landscape Assessment published in 1994. This report sets out the methodology by which Landscape Character Areas have been identified, based on Landscape Description Units, and brings together the main findings of the study including the initial consultation stages. Part of the study included an assessment of landscape sensitivity at the level of the Landscape Description Units. This aspect of the study is however to be the subject of further investigation and the findings set out in this report have not therefore been endorsed at this stage by the participating organisations. This report will form the basis of a number of areas of further research and investigation including landscape sensitivity, and seascape assessment as well as the further consultation on the draft Landscape Character Area Descriptions.

Populations vary over range of time scales and cyclical patterns. This has important implications for how researchers and policy makers undertake hazard risk assessments. Traditionally, static population counts aggregated to arbitrary areal units have been used.
