The Design & Access Statement has been produced by the Cornwall Planning Group on behalf of the client Mr B Thomas. This Statement accompanies associated plans and documentation, seeking the Councils permission on the principle of. Construction of Agricultural Building, Greenhouse Building & Associated Works on 35 Acre Farm. My client has recently established planning permission for a replacement farmhouse dwelling at his property ‘Pengelly’ with the land acquisition of 35 acres of surrounding land as indicated on our planning proposal. The need for the agricultural buildings is justified with the following processes. 1. Lambing Shed. 2. Potting shed and greenhouse to grow vegetables. 3. Various farming machinery. 4. The restoration of the land is currently undergoing a vast 650 tree planting scheme 5. The agricultural building will naturally need to be used as feed storage for the animals, as well as lambing and various other agricultural related activities. After conducting research of the site and surrounding area it has been noted that recent development sites have been approved within the area.

  • DR. BORLASE's ACCOUNT of LUDGVAN by P
    DR. BORLASE'S ACCOUNT OF LUDGVAN By P. A. S. POOL, M.A. (Gwas Galva) R. WILLIAM BORLASE at one time intended to write a D parochial history of Cornwall, and for that purpose collected a large MS. volume of Parochial Memoranda, which is now pre• served at the British Museum (Egerton MSS. 2657). Although of great interest and importance, this consists merely of disjointed notes and is in no sense a finished product. But among Borlase's MSS. at the Penzance Library is a systematic and detailed account, compiled in 1770, of the parish of Ludgvan, of which he was Rector from 1722 until his death in 1772. This has never been published, and the present article gives a summary of its contents, with extracts. The account starts with a discussion of the derivation of the parish name, Borlase doubting the common supposition " that a native saint by his holiness and miracles distinguished it from other districts by his own celebrated name," and concluding that " the existence of such a person as St. Ludgvan . may well be accounted groundless." His own view was that the parish was called after the Manor of Ludgvan, which in turn derived its name from the Lyd or Lid, the name given in Harrison's Description of Britain (1577) to the stream running through the parish. It is noteworthy that the older Ludgvan people still, at the present day, pronounce the name " Lidjan." Borlase next gives the descent of the manor, the Domesday LUDUAM, through the families of Ferrers, Champernowne, Brook, Blount and Paulet.
