Bounded by Heritage and the Tamar: Cornwall As 'Almost an Island'
Island Studies Journal, 15(1), 2020, 223-236 Bounded by heritage and the Tamar: Cornwall as ‘almost an island’ Philip Hayward University of Technology Sydney, Australia [email protected] (corresponding author) Christian Fleury University of Caen Normandy, France [email protected] Abstract: This article considers the manner in which the English county of Cornwall has been imagined and represented as an island in various contemporary contexts, drawing on the particular geographical insularity of the peninsular county and distinct aspects of its cultural heritage. It outlines the manner in which this rhetorical islandness has been deployed for tourism promotion and political purposes, discusses the value of such imagination for agencies promoting Cornwall as a distinct entity and deploys these discussions to a consideration of ‘almost- islandness’ within the framework of an expanded Island Studies field. Keywords: almost islands, Cornwall, Devon, islands, Lizard Peninsula, Tamar https://doi.org/10.24043/isj.98 • Received May 2019, accepted July 2019 © 2020—Institute of Island Studies, University of Prince Edward Island, Canada. Introduction Over the last decade Island Studies has both consolidated and diversified. Island Studies Journal, in particular, has increasingly focussed on islands as complex socio-cultural-economic entities within a global landscape increasingly affected by factors such as tourism, migration, demographic change and the all-encompassing impact of the Anthropocene. Islands, in this context, are increasingly perceived and analysed as nexuses (rather than as isolates). Other work in the field has broadened the focus from archetypal islands—i.e., parcels of land entirely surrounded by water—to a broad range of locales and phenomena that have island-like attributes. -
The RIVER TAMAR from GUNNISLAKE STATION
The RIVER TAMAR from GUNNISLAKE STATION Once again we met at Gunnislake Station for a walk in the Tamar Valley which today focused on two different periods in time, both of which occurred before the railway even reached this area. The weather this morning was overcast but mild so it was ideal for walking and Maggie had even given us a bit longer than usual so everybody could enjoy the scenery and not rush past like last time. So, with Rosy by my side and everyone else following close behind, we left the station around 10am and wound our way up along quiet paths towards the hamlet of Delaware. Safely across the main road into Delaware Road, a short walk led to Delaware Farm where we turned right to follow a footpath and from here to the river we walked along what many believe was once the medieval packhorse route linking Tavistock with Launceston, the ancient capital of Cornwall. This was by far the most practical way to transport goods right through the dark ages and the medieval period when there were very few roads in the countryside. At that time Britain relied on these meandering trails and lanes to send and receive goods and the sure-footed mules, oxen and horses would carry immense loads balanced on their backs. Grain, fodder, fleeces, cloth and other agricultural products were carried between market towns on the backs of a string of animals often escorted by just one or two men. Later, to save the animals having to wade through the water, three local stone bridges were erected to span the River Tamar, all were to the same design, they were New Bridge at Gunnislake and Horsebridge and Greystone Bridge further upstream. -
151. South Devon Area Profile: Supporting Documents
National Character 151. South Devon Area profile: Supporting documents www.naturalengland.org.uk 1 National Character 151. South Devon Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment 1 2 3 White Paper , Biodiversity 2020 and the European Landscape Convention , we are North revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas (NCAs). These are areas East that share similar landscape characteristics, and which follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision- Yorkshire making framework for the natural environment. & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform their West decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a landscape East scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage broader Midlands partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will also help West Midlands to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. East of England Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key London drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental Opportunity (SEOs) are South East suggested, which draw on this integrated information. The SEOs offer guidance South West on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future. -

HON. NICHOLAS RIDLEY MP SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT THE COUNTIES OF CORNWALL AND DEVON INTRODUCTION 1. On 26 July 1986 we wrote separately to Cornwall and Devon County Councils announcing our intention to undertake reviews under section 48(1) of the Local Government Act 1972 for the purpose of considering whether.or not to make such proposals in relation to the counties as are authorised by section 47 of the Act, and what proposals, if any, to make. Copies of the letters were sent to the principal local authorities and all the parishes in the Counties of Cornwall and Devon and in the case of the County of Devon to all the local authorities in the Counties of Dorset and Somerset, the Members of Parliament with constituency interests, the headquarters of the main political parties, various Government Departments which might have an interest. South West Regional Health Authority; British Telecom, South Western Electricity and Gas Boards, South West Water Authority, the English Tourist Board, Port Authorities, local TV and radio stations serving the area and the National and County Associations of Local Councils. 2. The County Councils were requested, in co-operation as necessary with the other County Councils and with the District Councils concerned, to assist us in giving publicity to the start of the review by publishing a notice for two successive weeks in appropriate local newspapers so as to give the widest possible publicity to cover the areas concerned. -
