  • Wendron Audio Trail Delve Deeper
    Delve Deeper Wendron Wendron: Ghosts of mining amidst Mining peaceful pastures District If you wish to delve deeper into the history of Wendron’s links with Cornish Mining then this short guide will provide you with more information. As you explore Wendron’s quiet farmland or walk along its tinkling streams, it’s easy to feel like you’ve stepped back in time. But if you did step back 150 years or so, you would find yourself in a very different landscape – a noisy, dirty, smoky industrial area. The parish of Wendron is one of the oldest mining districts in Cornwall and the Cober Valley was one of the most important tin streaming areas. Tin streaming has been important in the area since medieval times. Then, from the late 1700s, Wendron became part of the Cornish mining boom – the parish had very rich deposits of tin. For this reason, Wendron is one of the ten areas of the Cornish Mining World Heritage Site. More than 800 people were employed in the parish in 1870. Yet by 1880, Wendron’s mining industry, like that of other Cornish districts, had utterly collapsed due to foreign competition. TIN STREAMING – WENDRON’S EARLIEST INDUSTRY Why was tin in streams? Cornwall’s granite contains near vertical veins (lodes) of minerals such as tin, copper and tungsten. In the Wendron district, the tin lodes were narrow and close to the surface, allowing early miners to dig it out. Erosion of the rocks carried deposits of tin ore downstream to the valley bottoms. There it was buried in sands and gravel.

  • Historic Cornish Mines Provide the Inspiration for Thriller by Devon Author
    Ken McKechnie at Caradon mines. Historic Cornish mines provide the inspiration for thriller by Devon author The old mine ruins that scatter the countryside at Caradon make for a dramatic picture, a scenic reminder of Cornwall’s rich mining heritage. If you walk up to the relics today, you’re likely to meet plenty of friendly ponies, quite a few dog walkers, and the occasional photographer. Yet in the mid- 1800s, this landscape would have been teeming with people, all of them employed at the then lucrative copper mines. Devon author Ken McKechnie took one look at this place and decided it would make the perfect setting for his new novel. When it comes to mines, Ken knows what he’s talking about: he was a mining geologist for 40 years, a job that took him to mines all around the world. But living in Devon, with a Cornish background, he wanted his 19th century thriller, The Boy in the Dark, to be set at a mine closer to home. Finding the ideal location for the story was proving problematic, however – until he found this spot: “I knew what I wanted in terms of the setting and the landscape, but I just couldn’t find anywhere that was quite right,” said Ken, who lives near Lapford in mid Devon. “The story is loosely based on the Devon Great Consols mine at Morwellham in the Tamar Valley, which in its day was the world’s largest copper mine. But I wanted my mine to be in a big, open space with wide vistas.

Introduction Public consultation and information events took place mainly between mid November and Christmas 2016 after Tavistock Town Council’s Works Department, who had been occupying the Guildhall basement, had vacated and cleaned the premises. A few additional events were held in January to March 2017. The principal aims of the public consultations were: 1. To inform a wide range of people about the project and encourage support for it. 2. To invite consultees to explore the building and provide their ideas about: a. Detailed second tier interpretive themes and topics relating to Tavistock’s heritage and the police and justice museum. b. Ways of presenting these themes, including appropriate activities. 3. To refine the project team’s understanding of target audiences and their needs. 4. To obtain the views of members of special interest groups about what they might be able to contribute towards the project and vice versa. Community organisations were invited to participate in the consultation by the Activity consultant through: An article in the Tavistock Times on 17 November 2016 based on an onsite briefing and featuring a photograph and quotations from Town Council staff and councillors and the Tavistock Heritage Trust shadow board.

  • Journeys of the Cornish & History of Settlement in North America
    Journeys of the Cornish & History of Settlement in North America Rosalie Armstrong February 2008 INTRODUCTION This presentation will look at some journeys of the Cornish and a little of the history of the Cornish settlement in America, especially in Ontario. Much of the material comes from surveys that Toronto Cornish Association members filled in for me in 2007 and from other CAHS members earlier - Americans who came to Ontario first. This will not be a formal history but an impression in photographs, poetry, and words from your ancestors, to evoke the painful and exciting story of a people moving from one continent to another, from one culture to FOUND another, in a very different world. Your ancestors who left Cornwall were mainly farmers. It is sure you know more of the history of Ontario than I do, and it goes without saying that you have more intense tales from your ancestors than I have. Perhaps I can hope to do justice to both from a Cornish perspective; almost two hundred years after those brave souls risked all to find a better life in the New World. Even growing up in Cornwall in the mid-20th century, from a very early age I was aware of America. My mother sang "John Brown's Body" and "God Bless America" as she pinned the clothes on the line in a windy Cornish garden, in memory of those, still treasured, who had left. Now we have come full circle and in your return on holidays in Cornwall, in your genealogical excavations of your people, you give to the Cornish a sense of pride just when it is needed, just when the speed of change threatens so much.

    VOLUME XXXXIII, NUMBER 4 FALL 2016 A Publication of the Sierra County Historical Society The Cornish Connection ornish immigrants to California brought with them not just mining expertise, but a centuries old heritage from their beloved homeland. Cornwall, (Kernow in Cornish) is a horn-shaped county on the Csouthwestern tip of England. It is bordered to the north and west by the Celtic Sea, to the south by the English Channel, and to the east by the county of Devon. It features misty moors, quaint fishing villages, ancient castles, and a breathtaking, rugged coastline. Cornwall has its own flag and language and is one of the six Celtic Nations, along with Brittany, Wales, Ireland, the Isle of Man and Scotland. Though it occupies merely 0.02% of the earth’s surface, samples of more than 90% of all mineral species ever identified can be found beneath its rocky shores. This geologic Much of the very early mining was ‘stream’ mining for treasure-trove of copper, tin, arsenic, lead, zinc, and ore found on or near the surface or in creeks. Mining silver powered the Cornish people’s lives throughout families were somewhat self-sufficient as they also 4,000 years of mining history. Their forefathers picked farmed the fields. Gradually, the mines became ‘beam’ tin and copper from the ground long before written or ‘coffin’ openwork mines in which ore close to the history, and by the 15th Century they were harvesting surface was dug by hand.

Critchley Abstract: A short time ago, we were invited to view a bell that was formerly on display in the Parnell Room of the Vale View Hotel, Avoca. It was acquired by the former landlord, the late Mahon O'Brien, but where and when he obtained it is unknown. Cast in bronze with a polished fin- ish, it was made by William Blews & Sons in England in the late 1860s. It is approximately 24 inch- es (64 cm) in diameter at the lip, 11 inches (28 cm) at the crown and 19 inches (49 cm) lip to crown, with six canons above the crown (loops cast as part of the bell, the purpose of which is to suspend the bell from a headstock by means of strap fixings).

  • The Unimportance of Being Cornish in Cornwall
    The Unimportance of Being Cornish in Cornwall (in Philip Payton (ed.), Cornish Studies Twenty-One, University of Exeter Press, 2013, pp. 17-32) This was delivered as the Caroline Kemp Memorial Lecture, at the ICS, November 2012 Introduction In 1973 at Cornwall Technical College, the first Director of the Institute of Cornish Studies, Charles Thomas, lectured on the importance of being Cornish in Cornwall. He outlined the historical origins of Cornwall, asked how we might spot that endangered species – the Cornish – and discussed the various pressures on Cornwall. In doing so he painted a gloomy picture and issued a stark warning. Unless there was ‘a more effective approach … this little land of ours will end up scarcely distinguishable from the Greater London area, with undertones reminiscent of Blackpool or Skegness’.1 At his inaugural lecture at Exeter, Professor Thomas was even blunter: ‘there were not many real Cornish left, and not all that much left of real Cornwall’.2 Now, from the perspective of my swansong [Caroline L. Kemp Memorial] lecture at Cornwall’s gleaming new university campus of Tremough, almost 40 years and several booms and slumps further on, things are clearly different. Or are they? It is time to revisit Charles Thomas’ analysis. I shall begin from the perspective that it is still important to be Cornish in Cornwall, before moving on to the implication that it is supremely unimportant. I want to pursue two of the same questions Charles Thomas posed in 1973. I intend to ask who the Cornish are and, like Charles, how many of us remain.
