With the help of a Steering Group of local residents, this Plan has been drawn up with the intention of reflecting and sustaining the sense of community and heritage that is so important to all who live in the town. We see this Plan not simply as a practical administrative device to guide planning decisions. We have endeavoured to engage with you and to consult you over what you wish to see in the town and we hope it gives a vision of the town and its future that all who live in it will embrace.

All rights reserved. Cornwall County Council 100019590, 2008. Location This area comprises the river system of the River Fowey and its tributaries from Bodmin Moor (LCA32) and the eastern plateau (LCA 22 South East Cornwall Plateau) and includes the estate parkland of Lanhydrock (National Trust). Designations 5 LDUs are partly covered by the Cornwall AONB designation; 2 contain SSSIs; 2 are partly covered by the Gribbin Head to Polperro Heritage Coast designation. One LDU contains a SACs site and 1 an NNR; 7 contain SMs and 5 CGS. Description This Landscape Character Area is comprised of the River Fowey and its tributaries and the Fowey ria, the latter of which is navigable and the former non navigable. The upper tributaries of the River Fowey flow from Bodmin Moor through steep sided and heavily wooded stream valleys with a strong sense of enclosure. These tributaries flow into the main channel of the Fowey which winds east to west through the Glynn Valley. The valley widens out into the mature parkland ornamental landscape of Lanhydrock House with its woodland conifer plantations and more recent shelter belts. Past Lanhydrock, the River turns south towards Lostwithiel and flows through well wooded farmland, grading into the Fowey ria across a floodplain of wet woodland, wetland, saltmarsh and then intertidal mudflats. The ria tributaries flow from the plateau ground to the east and west with the main creeks of Penpol, Pont Pill and Lerryn, on the eastern side of the river, flowing from the South East Cornwall Plateau (LCA 22).

  • Lake's Parochial History of Cornwall Lanlivery
    Page 1 of 6 LAKE'S PAROCHIAL HISTORY OF CORNWALL LANLIVERY Extract from pages 21 to 32 of Volume III, Part No. 31 of "A Complete Parochial History of the County of Cornwall" (known as “Lake’s Parochial History of Cornwall”) compiled by Joseph Polsue (born 1816) from the best authorities and corrected and improved from actual survey and published in 55 monthly parts by John Camden Hotten of Piccadilly, London and William Lake of Boscawen Street, Truro between June 1866 and May 1873. The cost of each part was one shilling. Joseph Polsue begins his history of Lanlivery with quotations from Thomas Tonkin’s (1678-1742) three-volume History of Cornwall, the publication of which was announced in 1737 but it was never actually published. ————— TONKIN.—Lanlivery is situate in the hundred of Powder, and hath to the west, Luxulyan; to the north, Lanivet and Lanhydrock; to the east, Lostwithiel and the river Fowey between it and S. Winnow; to the south, Tywardreath and Golant. The name Lanlivery signifies the church of bucks; for livrou in Cornish is the plural of levar, or livar, a buck; but for what reason I cannot as much as guess. This parish is sometimes called Lanvorck, the church of S. Vorck, to whom it is dedicated. It is a vicarage, valued in the King's Books at £13 6s. 8d. The patron, Walter Kendall, of Pelyn, Esq.; the Incumbent, his father, Mr Archdeacon Kendall. In 1291, the 20th of Edward I., this church was valued at £9 11s. 8d. for the rectory, and the Vicarage at 15s.

It is always good to see local residents taking an interest in your Parish Council. As usual this year has flown past in a blur of potholes and planning. The major event of the year has been the Parish referendum and subsequent adoption of our Neighbourhood Plan. This represents some 5 years of work by the Steering Committee, Cllrs and our Clerk as well as our planning consultant Tony Lee. I would like to thank all those who have taken part for their efforts and remind us all that we must take the Neighbourhood Plan into account in our future planning decisions alongside the Cornwall Local Plan and the National Planning Policy Framework. The Planning Department at Cornwall Council has made it clear that they will only take notice of our decisions if they are based on sound material planning reasons, which are in line with these documents and if we do not use them then we will be undermining any influence we have on the Planners.
