  • Seaton, Looe and Fowey Catchment Management Plan Consultation Report
    EA-S'oU fh \K/£c>t LEAPs £ 0 x ^ 1 SEATON, LOOE AND FOWEY CATCHMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN CONSULTATION REPORT “ ■€ National Rivers Authority South Western Region NRA Copyright Waiver This report is intended to be used widely and may be quoted, copied or reproduced in any way, provided that the extracts are not quoted out of context and that due acknowledgement is given to the National Rivers Authority. Published December 1994 Foreword The Seaton, Looe and Fowey is the first group of catchments for which the NRA’s Cornwall Area is preparing a Catchment Management Plan (CMP). The preparation of this plan is part of a national programme to prepare CMP’s for all catchments in England and Wales over the next 5 years. An important part of the Catchment Management Plan process is public consultation which is designed to allow those who live in, or use, the catchment to have an input into the development of NRA plans and work programmes. The Consultation Report includes relevant information about the catchment and lists the issues identified by the NRA which need to be addressed. Following the public consultation period the NRA will produce a Final Plan which will set out targets for action by the NRA and others over the coming years. We intend to set up Steering Groups comprising representatives of organisations and interests in the catchment to monitor progress. The Seaton, Looe and Fowey catchments are essentially high quality environments and the NRA’s vision is one of maintaining and reinforcing current high standards and ensuring that the character of the water related environments is maintained.

  • Black's Guide to Cornwall
    CLACK'S GUIDE TO CORNWALL Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2011 with funding from University of Toronto http://www.archive.org/details/blacksguidetocorOOadam PhotochTOin Co., Ltd. LAUNCESTON. BLACK'S GUIDE TO CORNWALL EDITED BY A. R. HOPE MONCRIEFF TWENTY-SECOND EDITION WITH MAPS AND PLANS A. & C. BLACK, LTD. 4» 5 & 6 SOHO SQUARE, LONDON 1919 Twenty-second edition revised and brought up to datt by G. E. Mitton 1915 iw04 .i;[££nio, On^:; PREFACE In the present edition of our Guide to Cornwall greater importance has been given to the popular coast resorts, some of which are coming more and more into note both as summer and as winter havens. With these, as far as possible, we have connected the various points of interest most often visited on excursions from them, so that different sections will serve as small handbooks to Fowey, Falmouth, Penzance, the Lizard, the Land's End, Newquay, Tintagel, and other spots where strangers are most likely to take up their quarters. As usual, we have tried to make our pages both readable and practical, entering into the spirit of the scene without over-loading our descriptive outlines with too much detail, which, in the case of a longer stay at any place, could be sought in local guides and more elaborate works, duly referred to for the benefit of our readers. Our principle is that a guide-book for use by passing tourists may contain too many facts as well as too few, the latter fault, of course, the more unpardonable : our aim has been to avoid either extreme, with regard for proper proportion and the needs of the kind of reader chiefly kept in view.

  • HIGHER TREWORGEY WOOD Near Looe, Cornwall Approximately 6.9 Acres
    HIGHER TREWORGEY WOOD Near Looe, Cornwall Approximately 6.9 acres Nearly 7 acres of Beech and Norway Spruce woodland in the East Looe Valley. Access improvements have recently been undertaken, to assist with future management . PRICE: £38,000 DIRECTIONS From Looe Follow the A387 towards Liskeard and Plymouth. At Sandplace fork left up the B3254, signed Duloe, and follow the road over the railway bridge. As you drive up hill you pass a small lane on your left. The road then bends to the left and the entrance to the wood can be found on the left hand side on the next right hand bend. From Liskeard Take the B3254 from the town centre, passing the railway station. The road is winding, so take care. Pass through the villages of St Keyne and Duloe. Treworgey Wood is on the right, one mile after Duloe, on a downhill section of the road. Nearest railway station: Sandplace halt on the Looe valley line is a ¼ mile walk, with hourly trains to the mainline at Liskeard. LOCATION MAP PHOTOGRAPHS Bluebells The woodland Main entrance The ride General view Bugle WOODLAND DESCRIPTION Treworgey Wood is typical of many hillside woods in Devon and Cornwall. The wood is an ancient woodland site which would traditionally have been managed as an oak coppice, trees cut on a thirty year rotation for a mixture of fencing, firewood and perhaps using the bark for tanning leather. Treworgey was acquired by the Forestry Commission and planted with beech and Norway spruce trees during the 1960’s. In recent years many of the spruce trees have been removed during thinning, leaving a predominantly beech woodland.
