Chairman’s Report Spring 2013 The thing the British do best is to complain about the weather but on the Friends of the whole, in our part of the country, we’ve fared better than most. To look on the bright side, the evenings are drawing out and we have the Spring to look forward to. I’m sure it will stop raining soon. Tamar Valley 2012 was not the happiest of years when it came to members of the Committee, with the loss of David Hodgkinson in July and then the very sudden loss of Brian Spencer in October. We shall miss them both. On a lighter note, I am pleased to say that interest in the Friends of the Tamar Valley remains fairly constant. Some people leave, of course, for all sorts of reasons but, more importantly, we have a lot of new faces and they are very welcome. The attraction, I believe, is the promotion of everything about the Valley and local Devon and Cornwall areas that encourages an interest in their richness, whether that’s in their history, the archaeology, the geology, the environment or their many other aspects. You will see from the programme in this Newsletter what a magnificent job Jane has done in giving us a wide and varied programme, fulfilling the ideals of the “Friends” to touch on as many aspects as possible concerning the Valley and its surrounding areas. The 34th edition of Tamar was issued just in time to meet the 2012 deadline and, as always, it is packed full of fascinating articles about those different aspects of the Tamar Valley and gives a much wider platform to the information that could be provided in a newsletter. I’m sure you found this edition as interesting as ever. It was only made possible by Clive Charlton stepping in as Editor at very short notice following the death of David Hodgkinson. What a fine job he made of it too. If you have article within you that you feel might be suitable for inclusion in Tamar then please contact Clive, the Editor. His contact information, as with all the Committee, is included within this Newsletter. As we did last year, some of us will be showcasing the Friends at various local shows during the summer. One such event will be the open day at Churchtown Farm at Saltash in July. This site was wonderfully described by Peter Kent in his February talk to the Friends on East Cornwall Wildlife Reserves. If you have never been to Churchdown Farm Nature Reserve I can thoroughly recommend it for its stunning views over the River Lyner. Running an organisation such as the Friends takes quite a bit of work and a lot of commitment from the Committee. There will, however, be some Newsletter Front cover: Weir Head from the Duke’s Drive along the River Tamar. The front cover of the Autumn 2012 Newsletter showed the dovecote at Antony House.

    GUNNISLAKE to CALSTOCK

    GUNNISLAKE to CALSTOCK As we stood waiting at Calstock for a bus to carry us up to Gunnislake, the usual ducks were milling around near the bus shelter; by far the greatest in number are Muscovy ducks. These are wild birds but they can be farmed, when they are said to produce ‘fabulous eggs and the best duck meat ever’. The name suggests they come from Moscow which couldn’t be further from the truth….they originate from South America! It is thought that the Muscovy got its name from the Muscovite Company which traded the ducks during the 1500s but they didn’t arrive in the UK until the 20th Century. They are the only domesticated duck that is not derived from the Mallard. Muscovy ducks are hardy in all weathers, from scorching sunshine to freezing ice and snow and here in the village their numbers appear to be increasing year on year. These ugly ducks are not like other ducks, firstly they do not fly much, preferring instead to waddle or lounge about as we know. Neither do they swim as much as other breeds because their oil glands are under developed and finally, they don't quack like other ducks but instead product a low hiss. On the plus side, they hunt flies and mosquitoes and eat slugs, bugs and even grass and grain…. whatever’s going really. When the bus arrived the driver looked a bit bemused when all 22 of us piled on taking up most of the seats, only to alight again at the crossroads near the local school where today’s walk began and where one more walker joined us.

    A Welsh Classical Dictionary

    A WELSH CLASSICAL DICTIONARY DACHUN, saint of Bodmin. See s.n. Credan. He has been wrongly identified with an Irish saint Dagan in LBS II.281, 285. G.H.Doble seems to have been misled in the same way (The Saints of Cornwall, IV. 156). DAGAN or DANOG, abbot of Llancarfan. He appears as Danoc in one of the ‘Llancarfan Charters’ appended to the Life of St.Cadog (§62 in VSB p.130). Here he is a clerical witness with Sulien (presumably abbot) and king Morgan [ab Athrwys]. He appears as abbot of Llancarfan in five charters in the Book of Llandaf, where he is called Danoc abbas Carbani Uallis (BLD 179c), and Dagan(us) abbas Carbani Uallis (BLD 158, 175, 186b, 195). In these five charters he is contemporary with bishop Berthwyn and Ithel ap Morgan, king of Glywysing. He succeeded Sulien as abbot and was succeeded by Paul. See Trans.Cym., 1948 pp.291-2, (but ignore the dates), and compare Wendy Davies, LlCh p.55 where Danog and Dagan are distinguished. Wendy Davies dates the BLD charters c.A.D.722 to 740 (ibid., pp.102 - 114). DALLDAF ail CUNIN COF. (Legendary). He is included in the tale of ‘Culhwch and Olwen’ as one of the warriors of Arthur's Court: Dalldaf eil Kimin Cof (WM 460, RM 106). In a triad (TYP no.73) he is called Dalldaf eil Cunyn Cof, one of the ‘Three Peers’ of Arthur's Court. In another triad (TYP no.41) we are told that Fferlas (Grey Fetlock), the horse of Dalldaf eil Cunin Cof, was one of the ‘Three Lovers' Horses’ (or perhaps ‘Beloved Horses’).

The presentation of all monitoring features into these catchment maps will assist in developing an integrated approach to catchment management and operation. The water quality monitoring maps and index were originally incorporated into the Catchment Action Plans. They provide a visual presentation of monitored sites within a catchment and enable water quality data to be accessed easily by all departments and external organisations. The maps bring together information from different sections within Water Quality. The routine river monitoring and tidal water monitoring points, the licensed waste disposal sites and the monitored effluent discharges (pic, non-plc, fish farms, COPA Variation Order [non-plc and pic]) are plotted. The type of discharge is identified such as sewage effluent, dairy factory, etc. Additionally, river impact and control sites are indicated for significant effluent discharges. If the watercourse is not sampled then the location symbol is qualified by (*). Additional details give the type of monitoring undertaken at sites (ie chemical, biological and algological) and whether they are analysed for more specialised substances as required by: a.
