Submitted by Robyn Alice Raxworthy (590020999) to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Geography In November 2018 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that any material that has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University has been acknowledged. (Signature) ………………………………………….…… Portions of Chapter 4 were presented in a paper given at The Royal Geographical Society (with The Institute of British Geographers) Annual International Conference 2017, as part of the session New and Emerging Research in Historical Geography: Historic Environments. The paper presented has since been accepted for publication in Historical Geography Research Series – New and Emerging Research in Historical Geography (Forthcoming). …. All of the observations and recommendations presented in this thesis are those of the author. The generous participation of the Wheal Martyn Trust (including the staff and volunteers of the Wheal Martyn Museum and the China Clay History Society) in the research does not imply their endorsement of the analysis presented, and the responsibility for conclusions drawn remains entirely with the author. Cover Image: Filing cabinets in the Wheal Martyn Museum offices. 2 Abstract In 1999 English China Clays (the then principal china clay producer in Cornwall and west Devon) was acquired by the multinational industrial minerals company Imerys. Shortly after, a group of concerned clay workers and local historians came together in a salvage mission to recover historical documents which had been deemed expendable during the business takeover. Together they ransacked offices and emptied filing cabinets collecting historic documentation about the industry. In the eighteen years that have followed, the china clay industry and its associated landscape have undergone immense change and transformation. Meanwhile, that small band of individuals has grown into the China Clay History Society (CCHS). CCHS is now in the process of formalising their salvaged collection, with curatorial expertise from the Wheal Martyn Museum (of which the CCHS is a component part). In this thesis, the CCHS archive and its associated community relationships are examined in relation to experiences of past loss, present instability, and the hope of future renewal. Over an extended period of participant observation working alongside the caretakers of the archive, I explored the different practices of collecting, sorting, and valuing which are making and remaking china clay heritage in mid- Cornwall. Drawing on heritage studies and past studies of collecting, as well as professional museum and archival scholarship, this thesis emphasises the role that practice and material relationships play in the assembling of heritage (Macdonald 2009). Two distinct modes of ordering (Law 1994;2004) – ‘Passion’ and ‘Purpose’ – are identified as central to this research, which aims to show how different practices of collecting and valuing have profound implications for the ways china clay heritage may be performed in the future. 3 Table of Contents Abstract

  • A STUDENT GUIDE to LIFE in CORNWALL Cornwall Boasts a Wealth of Beautiful Beaches and Coves, Dramatic Landscapes and Clifftop Views
    A STUDENT GUIDE TO LIFE IN CORNWALL Cornwall boasts a wealth of beautiful beaches and coves, dramatic landscapes and clifftop views. It also has a rich history of artistic and scientific innovation, making it a fascinating and stimulating place to study. In this guide, our students tell us what they love most about living in Cornwall and how you can make the most of your time here. From paddle boarding to festivals, volunteering to enjoying local food and drink, there is something for everybody. Students choose to study at our Penryn Campus not just for the quality and strength of our research-led teaching, but also for the lifestyle. Set in 100 acres of the UK’s most scenic countryside, and close to the waterside town of Falmouth, our Penryn Campus is unique, being shared and managed jointly with Falmouth University. Whilst we have separate teaching and research facilities, our students share accommodation and social spaces which creates a vibrant mix of students from science, engineering, humanities and arts backgrounds. Some of our students give an insight into the very different routes they took to studying at the Penryn Campus. I chose to come to the Penryn Campus because of the combined BSc/BA Geography course, which you don’t find elsewhere. Geography courses are I chose this university because of the usually split into separate BA and BSc quiet environment to study and the degrees, but the combination of the two allowed me graduate job prospects upon finishing. to study both human and physical geography topics Living on the Penryn Campus has been a whilst having the option of graduating with a BSc or series of awesome moments with other BA.

  • Just a Balloon Report Jan 2017
    Just a Balloon BALLOON DEBRIS ON CORNISH BEACHES Cornish Plastic Pollution Coalition | January 2017 BACKGROUND This report has been compiled by the Cornish Plastic Pollution Coalition (CPPC), a sub-group of the Your Shore Network (set up and supported by Cornwall Wildlife Trust). The aim of the evidence presented here is to assist Cornwall Council’s Environment Service with the pursuit of a Public Spaces Protection Order preventing Balloon and Chinese Lantern releases in the Duchy. METHODOLOGY During the time period July to December 2016, evidence relating to balloon debris found on Cornish beaches was collected by the CPPC. This evidence came directly to the CPPC from members (voluntary groups and individuals) who took part in beach-cleans or litter-picks, and was accepted in a variety of formats:- − Physical balloon debris (latex, mylar, cords & strings, plastic ends/sticks) − Photographs − Numerical data − E mails − Phone calls/text messages − Social media posts & direct messages Each piece of separate balloon debris was logged, but no ‘double-counting’ took place i.e. if a balloon was found still attached to its cord, or plastic end, it was recorded as a single piece of debris. PAGE 1 RESULTS During the six month reporting period balloon debris was found and recorded during beach cleans at 39 locations across Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly shown here:- Cornwall has an extensive network of volunteer beach cleaners and beach cleaning groups. Many of these are active on a weekly or even daily basis, and so some of the locations were cleaned on more than one occasion during the period, whilst others only once.

  • South West River Basin District Flood Risk Management Plan 2015 to 2021 Habitats Regulation Assessment
    South West river basin district Flood Risk Management Plan 2015 to 2021 Habitats Regulation Assessment March 2016 Executive summary The Flood Risk Management Plan (FRMP) for the South West River Basin District (RBD) provides an overview of the range of flood risks from different sources across the 9 catchments of the RBD. The RBD catchments are defined in the River Basin Management Plan (RBMP) and based on the natural configuration of bodies of water (rivers, estuaries, lakes etc.). The FRMP provides a range of objectives and programmes of measures identified to address risks from all flood sources. These are drawn from the many risk management authority plans already in place but also include a range of further strategic developments for the FRMP ‘cycle’ period of 2015 to 2021. The total numbers of measures for the South West RBD FRMP are reported under the following types of flood management action: Types of flood management measures % of RBD measures Prevention – e.g. land use policy, relocating people at risk etc. 21 % Protection – e.g. various forms of asset or property-based protection 54% Preparedness – e.g. awareness raising, forecasting and warnings 21% Recovery and review – e.g. the ‘after care’ from flood events 1% Other – any actions not able to be categorised yet 3% The purpose of the HRA is to report on the likely effects of the FRMP on the network of sites that are internationally designated for nature conservation (European sites), and the HRA has been carried out at the level of detail of the plan. Many measures do not have any expected physical effects on the ground, and have been screened out of consideration including most of the measures under the categories of Prevention, Preparedness, Recovery and Review.
