September 2013 Editorial THE Camelfordian SEPTEMBER 2013 EDITORIAL It’s nice to be back after the Summer break and my comment this month is regarding what a contrary bunch we are! I could not help but note the number of occasions when conversations in the warm weather were full of sighs and wishes for some rain to perk up the garden and give some relief from the balmy nights when sleep was difficult. And now we have wetter weather there are those of us who look back to the weather with a sense of loss. I can understand a preoccupation with the weather when your liveli- hood depends on it, if you have to work outside or you have a dog with very appealing eyes who needs exercise whatever the conditions, but I believe that the variety is something to be cherished. Wouldn’t it be boring if the daffodils sprung from the soil or the star- lings returned on the same day every year? And what would we talk about? CAMELFORD FORUM NHS DENTISTRY IN CAMELFORD A MEETING IS TO BE HELD in THE CONFERENCE ROOM at CAMELFORD HALL on WEDNESDAY 18 SEPTEMBER at 7 pm In attendance will be Tamsyn Anderson and Joy Youart from NHS Kernow, and Bridget Sampson, Director of Commissioning and Controlled Drugs Accountable Officer, NHS England Everyone is welcome to attend Page No. 2 CAMELFORD METHODIST CHURCH COMMUNITY SHOP September 26th, 27th and 28th from 10 am Friday 27th September is VALUATION DAY, 10 AM UNTIL 2 PM. Bring along your treasures. Refreshments in aid of the Roof Appeal At times I become agitated by the activity of some of those who run our Commercial organisations. One of our supermarket organisations started their advertising campaign for the sale of ‘Back to School’ items just three days after our Cornish Schools had closed for the summer holidays. At the time the schools in Devon were still open. I wonder how many parents and children were infuriated by the television advertisement and then disregarded it, however the advertisement did set me thinking. You will be reading this article in early September when ‘Back to School’ or moving on to College, University or vocational training will be a reality for all of our children and young people. Moving on into a new class or a new learning environment creates the opportunities of a fresh start, learning new skills, facing new challenges and developing personal confidence although there are apprehensions when we are confronted with changing circumstances. A word of encouragement to those ‘moving on’ is helpful. For those moving into training, college or university there will have been a process of self-assessment in choosing an appropriate course. This will have involved looking at examination successes, abilities and gifts, and asking questions of oneself about the future direction of life. Everybody goes through such experiences at the appropriate time in their lives. It is however good for all of us to step back from the everyday routine occasionally and ask ourselves questions about where life is leading us, whether we are finding life fulfilling, and considering the alternatives. Such times can be life-changing and life enhancing experiences. As I was thinking along these lines I thought of the Wealthy Senior tax-collector in Jericho, who became curious about Jesus and his teaching. You can read the story of Zacchaeus in Luke’s record of Jesus’ life in Chapter 19. For his encounter with Jesus and his teaching about life was a life changing and life enhancing experience. He came to the conclusions that there was more to life than just making money and that being a member of the emerging Christian Community was life enhancing. There are of course people today who have come to the same conclusions as Zacchaeus when they have taken time to ponder life, or have been confronted with life’s options. Asking questions of ourselves can be worthwhile for all of us. Every Blessing, Did You Know ? That during the 18th century Camelford was an important non conformist centre, with John Wesley visiting and preaching a number of times between 1746 and 1789. The first Methodist Chapel was built on Back Street, and since then it has been known as Chapel Street. Anglican worshippers still had to travel to Lanteglos for their services.

On the 13th Liskeard came to Camelford for the return fixture and the Camels bagged six of the seven points - a much better result than they achieved at Liskeard - only closely winning the match overall by 70 shots to 64 but winning three rinks. J. Tarrant, F. Bennett, D. Johns, N. Wright lost 14 - 20 A. Simon, E. Cato, R. Staple, S. Hambly won 17 - 12 K. Davey, P. Buck, R. Batt, C. Parsons won 19 - 17 S. Steadman, B. Gardner, M. Tapley, M. Prout won 20 - 15 The disaster occurred two evenings later when Bodmin visited the Lanteglos Road green, the visitors running rampant over their hosts. The final totals were 67 shots to the Camels and 107 to Bodmin, so certainly a convincing victory - where's the home advantage I hear you cry? S. Steadman, M. Tapley, R. Coleshill, M. Prout lost 16 - 25 R. Shillaber, B. Gardner, F. Bennett, D. Johns lost 15 - 29 K. Davey, P. Buck, R. Batt, C. Parsons lost 22 - 30 A. Simon, E. Cato, R. Staple, S. Hambly lost 14 - 23 The ladies ended their Rippon League season with a good win over Stratton at Camelford on the 14th, getting 28 shots to the visitors' 16. Pat Carter, Liz Staple, Joan Griffiths and Marion Davis, admitted they had a great game - the best of the season - and that they had saved the best till last!

At present there are some 8,500 Conservation Areas in England of which 29 are in the district of North Cornwall. During the preparation of the North Cornwall District Local Plan the centre of St. Breock was identified as a potential Conservation Area. Following public consultation it was designated as a Conservation Area by North Cornwall District Council on 3 February 1997. The Hamlet of St. Breock The hamlet of St. Breock is located 1%km (1 mile) south-west of Wadebridge at the convergence of three narrow minor roads from the Royal Cornwall Showground, Wadebridge and Burlawn. It is a quiet and hidden place, situated at the margin of a small steep wooded valley and open downland above. The surrounding land remains primarily in agricultural use; this is reflected in the historical division of land use within the hamlet - the valley houses the ancient Parish Church whilst the common above formed the focus of the working village adjacent to the downs.
