  • The Dagg People in St. Kew Jim Dagg, February 2015
    The Dagg People in St. Kew Jim Dagg, February 2015 St Kew parish, one of over 220 in the Duchy of Cornwall, is north of the town of Wadebridge, north of the Camel Valley and inland from Port Isaac in North Cornwall. About 1100 people are permanent residents of the 6500-acre parish and live in hamlets and farms connected by hedge-lined lanes. The lanes are narrow and twisting. Drive with care. Forty miles an hour can lead to some scary encounters with wildlife, other drivers or walkers. Both cyclists and eight and half foot-wide tractors are on a stop-for-nothing mission. The ancient hamlets are called Chapel Amble, Trewethern, Trewethen, St Kew Highway, St Kew, Trelill, Trequite, Tregellist, and Pendoggett. The origins of St Kew parish, lurk in the mists of time. Ancient beginnings have emerged in the work of many historians, archaeologists and people researching family records that are constantly being discovered. Although I am not one of those lucky types, I have developed a spectator interest during many visits to Cornwall, starting back in the early 1970s. Today, the parish is all quiet farmland. There once was a railway, but the station at St Kew Highway closed in the 1960s. Now a main road runs north to south, the A39, optimistically named the Atlantic Highway, and the B3314 road clips the north-west corner through Pendoggett, but all roads by-pass the church town of St Kew. 1 The heart of St Kew parish is St Kew hamlet and the parish church, St James the Great.

We see ourselves as part of a story of the grace of God, made manifest in Cornwall, which stretches back many hundreds of years, possibly to the very earliest days of the Christian faith. It’s a story that calls us on into the future too, in loving mission, ministry and service. As we follow ‘The Saints Way’ we will be deeply committed to Christ and to all that he calls us to be and to do; and to Cornwall, this very special place with its own particular culture, history and identity. We can only follow that Way faithfully if we see it as our corporate calling, as the body of Christ. So we encourage ministers of the gospel to come and join us here who are committed to setting the whole people of God free in their God-given calling, to make Christ known here in Cornwall, today. So we seek clergy of missional imagination and heart; those with a pastoral passion for people and communities and their flourishing.

  • Launceston-And-Districts-Fallen-From-Both-World-Wars..Pdf
    This is not a complete record of all those that fell during the two wars, with some of the fallen having no information available whatsoever. However there are 222 names from within the district that I have been able to provide a narrative for and this booklet hopefully will provide a lasting memory for future generations to view and understand the lives behind the names on the various memorials around Launceston. It has not been easy piecing together the fragments of information particularly from the first world war where many records were destroyed in the blitz of the second world war, but there are many resources now available that do make the research a little easier. Hopefully over time the information that is lack- ing in making this a complete story will be discovered and I can bring all the re- cords up to date. Of course there have been many people that have helped and I would like to thank Peter Bailey, Claudine Malaquin, Dennis Middleton, Jim Edwards, Martin Kel- land, Grant Lethbridge Morris and Michael Willis for their invaluable help in compiling this homage plus the resources that are freely available at Launceston Library. My hope is that the people will find this a fascinating story to all these souls that bravely gave their lives in the service of their country and that when we come to remember them at the various remembrance services, we will actually know who they were.

  • The Early Neolithic Tor Enclosures of Southwest Britain
    The Early Neolithic Tor Enclosures of Southwest Britain By Simon R. Davies A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham For the degree of Ph.D. Funded by the AHRC. i University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract Along with causewayed enclosures, the tor enclosures of Cornwall and Devon represent the earliest enclosure of large open spaces in Britain and are the earliest form of surviving non-funerary monument. Their importance is at least as great as that of causewayed enclosures, and it might be argued that their proposed associations with settlement, farming, industry, trade and warfare indicate that they could reveal more about the Early Neolithic than many causewayed enclosure sites. Yet, despite being recognised as Neolithic in date as early as the 1920s, they have been subject to a disproportionately small amount of work. Indeed, the southwest, Cornwall especially, is almost treated like another country by many of those studying the Early Neolithic of southern Britain. When mentioned, this region is more likely to be included in studies of Ireland and the Irish Sea zone than studies concerning England.
