    CORNWALL AND ISLES OF SCILLY LANDSCAPE CHARACTER STUDY Landscape Character Area Description LCA - St Austell or Hensbarrow China Clay Area. LCA No CA17 JCA Constituent LDUs Total 4: 298, 409, 410, 411 © Crown copyright. All rights reserved. Cornwall County Council 100019590, 2008. Location Inland area to the north-west of St Austell and bounded by the road network which stretches from Indian Queens on the west (B3275) via St Dennis in the north (B3279) to the A391 in the east (Penwithick) and the A3058 in the south, where it abuts the urban area of St Austell. Designations No AONB; SSSIs in LDUs 298,409, 411. 3 LDUs contain SACs; 3 contain SMs and there is 1 CGS site. Description A very varied, dramatic landscape of china clay waste tips and areas of rough vegetation, characterised by open pit mining. The mix of active and disused sites creates a dramatic ‘lunar’ landscape of huge, light- coloured waste tips and settling ponds within a relic pastoral farming landscape. A rugged area of great variation and drama. Dominant visual elements include the large white spoil heaps, either conical or flat- topped in form, aqua-blue pools, areas of rough ground and natural and naturally regenerated scrub and heath, as well as large quarry pits. The scale of these features contrasts dramatically with the small scale field patterns. The fluctuating and changing condition and relationship of elements in this landscape, and the natural regeneration of heathland, new woodland planting and rough ground provides a vivid and dynamic visual landscape character quite unlike surrounding LCAs.

CleanEarth (CE) are proposing to submit a planning application for a single turbine development on land at East Karslake, Imerys, Cornwall, PL26 7XS. CE seeks to gain a formal screening opinion and formal pre-planning consultee comments for this site. The provisional turbine locations are shown in drawings CE3405-SC-TL-01 and CE3405-SC-SL-01. CE has provided a detailed description of the project and evaluated this against Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) regulations to support our screening request. 1. The Development The proposal is to install a single turbine of maximum tip height 135m, with a 3-bladed rotor design. Due to constant industry developments, the turbine model has yet to be finalised. Supplementary elements include two permanent switchgear housing units (approx. 4m x 4m x 3m), temporary access track, underground cabling, and temporary crane hard standing area (approx. 45m x 65m). CE looks to develop sites that have reduced environmental impacts considering proximity, noise and visual amenity to ‘sensitive receptors’ (residential dwellings), ecological constraints, existing infrastructure, and locally designated areas and features. 1.1 Installation The turbine and other components would be delivered to the site by an articulated lorry.

  • The Mineralogical Magazine and Journal of the Mineralogical Society
    THE MINERALOGICAL MAGAZINE AND JOURNAL OF THE MINERALOGICAL SOCIETY No. 902 September, 1948 Vol. XXVIII On rashleighite, a new mineral from Cornwall, inter- mediate between turquoise and chalcosiderite. By Sir ARTHUR RUSSELL, Bart. [Read March 11, 1937.] HE mineral here described was at first considered to be an iron-rich T variety of turquoise and was described by myself as such when this paper was read before the Society in 1937. At that time only a partial analysis had been made ; since then Dr. J. A. Smythe of King's College, Newcast[e-upon-Tyne, has most kindly undertaken at my instigation careful analyses of the mineral from both of its localities, Bunny mine, St. Austell, and Castle-an-Dinas wolfram mine, St. Columb Major. As a result of these two analyses, which are in close agreement, it is evident that the mineral is a new one, intermediate between turquoise and the two minerals chalcosiderite and andrewsite, and forming a middle member of what is probably an isomorphous group. The name rashleighite commemorates Philip Rashleigh, F.R.S., F.G.S., F.S.A., 1729-1811, of Menabilly, Cornwall, one of the earliest of Cornish mineralogists and famous for having amassed the finest collection of Cornish minerals ever made. The table of analyses given below shows the relationships of the various members of the g~oup and their respective specific gravities. The crystal system to which these minerals belong has only been estab- lished in the case of turquoise and chalcosiderite which are triclinic. Henwoodite (Sp. gr. 2.67) would seem to belong to this group, but an examination of a series of specimens shows that it is apparently a mineral of variable composition and the sole analysis by J.

    Geoscience in south-west England SOME NOTABLE CORNISH BUILDING AND DECORATIVE STONES C.M. BRISTOW Bristow, C.M. 2001. Some notable Cornish building and decorative stones. Geoscience in south-west England, 10, 000-000. Arising mainly from its exceptionally varied suites of intrusive igneous rocks, Cornwall has a rich variety of building and decorative stones which were extensively exploited, both for local and export use, before concrete and brick came to dominate construction in the 20th century. Basic igneous rocks include a metabasic rock at Cataclews Point, west of Padstow, which provided the extremely durable Cataclews Stone from Norman times onwards; this was used extensively for medieval fonts and church carvings in North Cornwall. Polyphant Stone, formed by carbonatization of an ultrabasic intrusion, is composed of a mixture of talc, chlorite and various calcium and magnesium carbonates and the Polyphant quarry was recently reopened to supply stone for the rebuilding of Newquay parish church. Allied to Polyphant Stone is Duporth Stone, worked from the cliffs of Duporth Bay, south of St. Austell and used extensively in the pillars of Truro Cathedral. Granites were notably worked in the eastern part of the Carnmenellis Granite (mainly in Mabe parish), in the St. Austell Granite (Luxulyan, Carn Grey and the china stone areas) and on Bodmin Moor (De Lank, Hantergantick, Cheesewring, etc). A significant industry developed in the 19th and early 20th centuries, employing large numbers of skilled quarrymen, with granite exported world- wide. A tourmalinized granite, luxullianite, was an important decorative stone, used for example in the Duke of Wellington’s sarcophagus in St.

OCTOBER 2020 Issue 47 THIS MONTH’S FEATURES HERITAGE AT RISK REGISTER 2020 AREA REPS ZOOM IN WESTERN SNIPPETS AROUND THE ROUND AT TRETHURGY HERITAGE AT RISK REGISTER 2020 Photo: Peter Crispin Photo: Peter Crispin Trekelland Bridge (SX 3004 7984, Grade II* LB, South Petherwin parish) is an important part of our heritage and it is at risk from motor traffic. Following a tip-off from Robin Paris, Area Reps Peter Crispin and John Hanns visited it to assess the most recent damage and were rather discouraged by their findings. What can be done? Much could be achieved in a country that was prepared to back up noble words about heritage with proper funding. And this would also have a very positive impact on the economy. But the very first step must be to methodically identify the problems and this is what Historic England’s annual Heritage at Risk Registers do so well. All 2 of the latest registers can be obtained here: https://historicengland.org.uk/images- books/publications/har-2020-registers/ . What does the latest register tell us about Cornwall’s heritage? This is available here: https://historicengland.org.uk/images-books/publications/har-2020-registers/sw-har- register2020/ . A higher percentage of archaeological Scheduled Monuments in the South West are at risk than in England as a whole (15% compared with 10.5%).

  • Menydh and Other Cornish Words for 'Hill'
    MENYDH AND OTHER CORNISH WORDS FOR ‘HILL’ a discussion paper by Ken George 1 BACKGROUND The English word hill has several meanings, of which two are relevant here (meanings from Reader’s Digest Universal Dictionary ): 1) a well-defined, naturally elevated area of land smaller than a mountain; 2) an incline, especially on a road; a slope. I shall sometimes refer to (1) as “hill-top” and (2) as “hill-slope”. When translating street-names, it is desirable to distinguish these two meanings, by using different Cornish words. This paper considers which words might be used for this purpose. Three sources for such words and their meanings are considered: (a) place-names; (b) writings in traditional Cornish; (c) usage in Revived Cornish. We shall see that the evidence from these three sources is conflicting and difficult to reconcile. The following table shows the number of occurrences of various words for ‘high ground’ from sources (a) and (b). Word Number of occurrences places used(1) cited(2) ardh ~10 0 8 bre ~20 0 9 brenn ~8 0 1 bronn ~20 0 10 (3) drumm ~5 0 0 knegh 1 0 0 menydh >60 34 35 ros >70 0 14 run ~8 2 4 runenn 0 0 1 tolgh 0 0 0 (1) “Used” means used within a text (verse or prose), which implies that the word was used in common parlance. (2) “Cited” means quoted as an individual word in a word-list or a dictionary. (3) Only those cases where bronn meant ‘hill’ are counted, not those where it meant ‘breast’.
