LOCATION St Just-in-Roseland is an exceedingly well regarded village a short distance from St Mawes and has been made famous by its church that stands within award winning gardens on the water’s edge of St Just pool and is regularly voted one of the most beautiful church settings in the country. St Just pool spills into St Just creek where there is a boatyard and sheltered launching facilities as well as deep water moorings. St Just is also better known than St Mawes for the quality of its walks nearby as the South West Coast Path follows the shoreline of the Carrick Roads to St Mawes in one direction and out around Messack Point to Turnaware Point in the other. 4 Ref: LCAA7712 Sailing and water sports are two of the main draws to the area and St Mawes is possibly the best known sailing community in Cornwall with plentiful moorings and beaches as well as the extremely active St Mawes Sailing Club holding regattas throughout the season and also helping many youngsters to learn the ropes. There are two boatyards and a further sailing centre on the Percuil River with one of the most successful youth windsurfing clubs in the country. St Mawes has a wide range of shops catering for all day to day needs and there are also many restaurants, bars and inns.

In this exhibition Amanda’s journey is somewhat more reflective, taking us back to the area where she began her career as an artist. In the 1990’s, Amanda was on the water daily, sharing her time between a love for boats and her compulsion to draw and paint. As demand for these first seascapes steadily grew, Amanda devoted herself fulltime to painting in 2000. She has since journeyed the whole of Cornwall’s coast path, absorbing herself in all weathers and terrains. Known also for her romantic impressions of Venice and Bath she has established a reputation across the UK and into America and demand for her finely executed oils remains at an all time high. Returning to paint Carrick Roads has conjured an evocative sense of the past, and in turn the work has a contemplative, almost wistful quality. The light is gentle and the palette is subdued; in the Truro series the meditative atmosphere is particularly resonant. Amanda recognises the pensive nature of the work. She says: ‘The paintings of Truro are the first of this Carrick Roads collection. They have started quietly, peacefully - a reflection not only of the light at the time but also of how I am feeling.’ These are the first paintings Amanda has produced since an illness last year kept her out of the studio for three months.

    PIONEERING MINEWATER TREATMENT It was a unique event — and one that caught IN the breath o f everyone concerned with the quality of our rivers. Over 10 million gallons o f heavily contaminated water burst from CORNWALL the disused Cornish tin mine workings of Wheal Jane, causing serious pollution. The highly toxic water, loaded with cadmium, zinc, arsenic and iron, swept into the Carnon River and spectacularly spread its metal-rich contents throughout the Restronguet Creek and into Carrick Roads and Falmouth Bay. The National Rivers Authority's response to this event was swift and effective in first controlling and then treating the worst elements of the contaminated minewater. As 'Guardians o f the water environment', the NRA was faced with a complex engineering and scientific project. Its objectives are extremely challenging: • Minimise the polluting effect o f the contaminated minewater discharge from Wheal Jane; • Monitor changes in water quality and the effects on the aquatic environment; • Determine the most cost-effective long­ term treatment strategy. In recognition o f the unprecedented scale of the problem, the Government pledged over £8 million for this pioneering wrork. This leaflet details the NRA's response and action in meeting this undoubted challenge. Emergenc THE PROBLEM scheme tt Cornwall is famous for its tin mines, but the demise of this once flourishing industry has left a legacy of pollution as old mine treat rive: workings have become flooded. In the case of Wheal Jane, regular pumping p ollu tion during its productive life depressed the water table by about 400 metres. The mine MERGENCY actic was closed in 1991 and pumping operations i treat m i l l i o n s ceased.
