But that should be no more than a few weeks away now so get planning to leave that car at home and use our local bus for lunch in town, a visit to the castle, a ride the steam railway or, using the No 12 from Westgate Street, treat yourself to a visit to the beach or a trip to Plymouth - all, of course, when these venues are back to normal opening. All this is helped by there now being a 16.25 service from Tesco, leaving Westgate Street at 16.32 and Langdon Cross at 16.42. The relevabt times have been highlighted to make the timetable easier to read and there is a useful space to write notes in - even your shopping list!

  • Providing News and Information for the Parish of Jacobstow Issue No. 17
    Providing news and information for the Parish of Jacobstow Delivered free to every household in the Parish Issue No. 17 April/May 2013 Editorial Although the media frenzy around the horsemeat scandal has started to subside, it has made me more aware of the journey our food makes from “field to fork”. I was astonished to see the journey all the components of a frozen Lasagne make, probably more than a DVD player. I have always tried to support English produce, but sometimes when you are doing your big weekly shop trying to pin down an English apple can be exhausting. Does the usual hassled shopper really have time to study the small print on every purchase? A point in question is pre-cooked chicken that you would maybe use in a salad or stir fry. I have studied this product in all the major supermarkets and the labelling information is usually the same “Produced in the EU using chicken from Thailand”. To me this throws up all sorts of questions, where in the EU? That's a very large area, how long has it taken for the chicken to get from Thailand to “The EU” and also, maybe most importantly, what are the welfare standards for chicken in Thailand? I can’t imagine an RSPCA inspector pops up unexpectedly. So, if maybe one good thing comes out of this whole sorry situation, we will be more aware of the origin of our food and the supermarkets are going to have to stop going for the cheap, large profit margin option and start being more responsible.

  • Cornwall Council
    Cornwall Council Preliminary Flood Risk Assessment ANNEX 5 – Chronology of Major Flood Events in Cornwall June 2011 1800 – 1899 A storm caused coastal flooding affecting a number of communities along the south coast on 19-20 January 1817. Polperro harbour was destroyed by this storm and Looe was badly damaged. Truro suffered from numerous flooding events during the 1800s (1811, 1815, 1818, 1838, 1841, 1844, 1846, 1848 (twice), 1869, 1875, 1880, 1882 (twice), 1885, 1894 and 1899). These were usually associated with high river flows coinciding with high tides. Known as the Great Flood of 16 July 1847, due to an intense rainstorm event on Davidstow Moor water collected in the valley and forced a passage of water down the Camel and Inney. Bodmin - Dunmere Valley and the whole area below Dunmere Hill was flooded by the River Camel. Dunmere Bridge was washed away as was the new 40 feet (12 m) high railway bridge. At St. Breward, bridges from Gam Bridge to Dunmere were washed away by a wall of water 12 to 18 feet (3.5-5.5 m) above normal along the River Camel. The devastating floods that swept down from Davidstow Moor washed away all but two of the bridges along the River Camel - Wadebridge and Helland being the only survivors. Serious flooding occurred in Par and St Blazey in November 1852. November 1875 saw heavy rain resulting in serious flooding in Bude, Camelford, Polmorla, Hayle, St Just, Penzance and Truro. Extreme rainfall in October 1880 resulted in serious flooding in both Bodmin and Truro. High tides at the end of September and early October 1882 resulted in flooding in Boscastle, Truro, Wadebridge and Padstow.
