  • Jack Clemo 1916-55: the Rise and Fall of the 'Clay Phoenix'
    1 Jack Clemo 1916-55: The Rise and Fall of the ‘Clay Phoenix’ Submitted by Luke Thompson to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English In September 2015 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Signature: ………………………………………………………….. 2 Abstract Jack Clemo was a poet, novelist, autobiographer, short story writer and Christian witness, whose life spanned much of the twentieth century (1916- 1994). He composed some of the most extraordinary landscape poetry of the twentieth century, much of it set in his native China Clay mining region around St Austell in Cornwall, where he lived for the majority of his life. Clemo’s upbringing was one of privation and poverty and he was famously deaf and blind for much of his adult life. In spite of Clemo’s popularity as a poet, there has been very little written about him, and his confessional self-interpretation in his autobiographical works has remained unchallenged. This thesis looks at Clemo’s life and writing until the mid-1950s, holding the vast, newly available and (to date) unstudied archive of manuscripts up against the published material and exploring the contrary narratives of progressive disease and literary development and success.

  • The History of NCI Stepper Point
    The History of NCI Stepper Point Stepper Point stands high on the north coast of Cornwall. Along with Pentire Point opposite, it guards the entrance to the Camel estuary and the port of Padstow. The lookout commands a spectacular view north to the open sea and Lundy Island, 36 nautical miles away and visible with binoculars on a clear day, west to Trevose lighthouse and the new lifeboat station, taking in the full sweep of the river down to Padstow in the south, and the beaches of Rock, Daymer Bay and Polzeath to the east. At low water the sand of the 'Doom Bar', destroyer of many ships and crew over the centuries, is visible below Stepper and the quarry. The rocks of Greenaway can still prove hazardous to gale- blown vessels. ABOUT OUR STATION The present lookout at Stepper Point was built in the early 1920s to keep a watching brief over the approaches to Padstow and the Camel Estuary with its notorious Doom Bar. The Doom Bar, a huge sandbank extending from Hawkers Cove eastwards to within about 200 yards of Greenaway Rocks and Daymer Bay, has been a hazard to shipping entering the port since time beyond record. In the period 1800 to the early 1900s records show that over two hundred ships have come to grief in this area, needless to say many lives have been lost, not least amongst them many local men who have served on lifeboats stationed at Hawkers Cove. The "Mariners Friend", one of the earliest lifeboats in the British Isles, was stationed at Hawkers Cove in 1823; this was paid for by local townsfolk who were all too aware of the dangers.

    PDZ: 14 Camel Estuary (Stepper Point Management Area 35 to Pentire Point) Management Area 36 Camel Estuary (Stepper Point to Pentire Point) This area is valued for its natural beauty, with the calm estuary environment contrasting with the small section of rugged open coast at Stepper Point and Pentire Point. Most of this area faces north and is slightly less exposed to the dominant westerly Atlantic conditions that occur more to the south-west. The area is generally rural and undeveloped including within the estuarine area, however a number of significant communities are sited towards the estuary mouth at Padstow and Rock, on the open coast at Polzeath and inland towards the estuary tidal limit at Wadebridge and Sladesbridge.

Padstow retains an active harbour and small fishing fleet. There are a significant number of fixed assets present related to the communities which include flood and coastal defences, commercial and residential properties, sewage treatment works, roads, harbour and sailing infrastructure and other A39 viaduct over the Camel at amenity features such as the Camel Trail. Wadebridge Heritage There are a number of Scheduled Monuments in the area including a churchyard cross in St Michael’s Church. There are numerous Bronze Age barrows on the coastal strip.

Twesas A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of Greenwich for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy March 2007 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to acknowledge all of the extraordinary people who helped to make this thesis possible. My involvement in this voyage towards my doctorate has given me opportunities I could not have imagined, and I have met many people for whom I feel immense affection. Because of them, I have been able to 'sail in smooth waters'. With much fondness, to Joan Ryan, a fellow Ph.D. student at the Greenwich Maritime Institute, and retired Humanities lecturer at the University of Greenwich, who has given so much of herself that she is a true friend in every meaning of the word. To her husband Mick Ryan, Professor of Penal Politics, also at Greenwich, with whom I enjoyed many long conversations about crime and wrecking; to Professor Roger Knight, former Deputy-Director of the National Maritime Museum and now Professor of Naval History, GMI, who introduced me to Capt. George Hogg and all those who were initiating the new National Maritime Museum Cornwall; to all of my fellow students at the GMI, with whom I have created an international 'family'; to my supervisor Dr John Dunne for his encouragement; and especially to my main supervisor Professor Sarah Palmer, Director of the GMI, whose continued enthusiasm and support meant more than I can ever say.
