So, with a bit of sunshine and a lovely mix of 22 people and two four legged friends, of all ages - some of whom were just visiting the area - we set off along Falmouth Road for a goodly 4-miler! Out and onto the High Street towards the bridleway opposite Buckingham Nip (301/49/1), we paused for a moment to brief the party on the Parish Council’s recent decision to risk assess the entrance. The consequence of this action will be to install a horse gate about 3 metres up the Lane towards Anzac Cottage in view of the clear dangers associated with bike users, in particular, emerging out onto our very busy High Street – a decision that was clearly understood by all present. On and up past Anzac Cottage where we transited along 301/49/2 and 1, John Peck interjected with some timely and very informative bits of local history and geography; initially relating to the name of his house and then the nearby quarry and shafts leading down to the County Adit. Emerging out onto Cox Hill opposite Thornleigh Cottage, out came the plastic bags for a swift litter pick along the road leading towards Truro Tractors. Sadly, because it reflects currently unwanted trend, we P.T.O. 5 managed to fill 3 large bags in no time, which Roger Wright- Morris kindly picked up and disposed of later. Off road again, we picked up 301/13/2 just past Truro Tractors and passed the magnificent Unity Mine engines near Wheal Bush House before descending to overlook the area of Tolgullow below and beyond the parish boundary, which is currently causing a bit of an issue, due to what seems excessive landfill and poor management of Japanese Knotweed. More or less turning back on ourselves as we entered Unity Wood, the opportunity was taken to brief the party on the intended benefits of coppicing but negative consequences of poor communications associated with such tasking, which can admittedly look quite devastating and is shown in the picture below. This rather interesting shot of the CRoW in Unity Wood, clearly shows some looking the other way? This is because we were almost immediately facing several off-road bikers who, when approached with a friendly group of walkers, immediately turned tail and went for a swift exit in the opposite direction. Curious as to why these “innocents” might be so quick to be on their merry way, without so much as a hello on a brisk Easter 6 Sunday, it wasn’t long before we realised why; for they had clearly been practising their ‘crop circling’ techniques on the grass at the foot of our famous Killifreth Mine. What a shame, especially as other – slightly more considerate – people actually like to picnic at this iconic site on occasion! How apt the phrase, “…..for they know not what they do”. Putting both incidents behind us, the walking group headed out of Unity Wood and along 301/16/1 and 2, over the road and on towards Great Wheal Busy where we debated the perennial question: “What can be done about this area?” especially given the scarring of the landscape resulting from almost continuous fly-tipping. Well, recent dialogue with Tregothnan Estates confirms that attempts are being made at trying to fund some form of refurbishment plan for the Old Smithy and that the good people of Boscawen Farm may be looking to use aspects of the Engine House. We will obviously have to see what comes over time because this iconic scheduled monument deserves better, as indeed do the people who live nearby. Leaving the Wheal Busy site and along 301/33/1 which took us past Hillside Farm to the left, we treaded carefully back P.T.O. 7 down into the village once more, along this now heavily pot holed un-adopted road, just as the weather was taking a slight turn for the worse. A hearty and informative bit of exercise on a fresh Easter morn, we eventually returned to the car park by 11.30.am, by which time we were all considering an afternoon in front of the fire. The starts from the Car Park at on Sunday by which time the 3 Chacewater Mining Trails will hopefully feature on the website.

  • The Smelting of Copper

    The Smelting of Copper

    Chapter 4 The Smelting of Copper The first written account of the processes of smelting and refining of copper is to be found in the 12th century.1 On smelting: Copper is engendered in the earth. When a vein of which is found, it is acquired with the greatest labour by digging and breaking. It is a stone of a green colour and most hard, and naturally mixed with lead. This stone, dug up in abundance, is placed upon a pile, and burned after the manner of chalk, nor does it change colour, but yet looses its hardness, so that it can be broken up. Then, being bruised small, it is placed in the furnace; coals and the bellows being applied, it is incessantly forged by day and night. On refining: Of the purification of copper. Take an iron dish of the size you wish, and line it inside and and out with clay strongly beaten and mixed, and it is carefully dried. Then place it before a forge upon the coals, so that when the bellows acts upon it the wind may issue partly within and partly above it, and not below it. And very small coals being placed around it equally, and add over it a heap of coals. When, by blowing a long time, this has become melted, uncover it and cast immediately fine ashes over it, and stir it with a thin and dry piece of wood as if mixing it, and you will directly see the burnt lead adhere to these ashes like a glue.

  • Responsibilities for Flood Risk Management

    Responsibilities for Flood Risk Management

    Appendix A - Responsibilities for Flood Risk Management The Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) has overall responsibility for flood risk management in England. Their aim is to reduce flood risk by: • discouraging inappropriate development in areas at risk of flooding. • encouraging adequate and cost effective flood warning systems. • encouraging adequate technically, environmentally and economically sound and sustainable flood defence measures. The Government’s Foresight Programme has recently produced a report called Future Flooding, which warns that the risk of flooding will increase between 2 and 20 times over the next 75 years. The report produced by the Office of Science and Technology has a long-term vision for the future (2030 – 2100), helping to make sure that effective strategies are developed now. Sir David King, the Chief Scientific Advisor to the Government concluded: “continuing with existing policies is not an option – in virtually every scenario considered (for climate change), the risks grow to unacceptable levels. Secondly, the risk needs to be tackled across a broad front. However, this is unlikely to be sufficient in itself. Hard choices need to be taken – we must either invest in more sustainable approaches to flood and coastal management or learn to live with increasing flooding”. In response to this, Defra is leading the development of a new strategy for flood and coastal erosion for the next 20 years. This programme, called “Making Space for Water” will help define and set the agenda for the Government’s future strategic approach to flood risk. Within this strategy there will be an overall approach to the assessing options through a strong and continuing commitment to CFMPs and SMPs within a broader planning framework which will include River Basin Management Plans prepared under the Water Framework Directive and Integrated Coastal Zone Management.

    141210 the Rise of Steam Power

    The rise of steam power The following notes have been written at the request of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Transport Division, Glasgow by Philip M Hosken for the use of its members. The content is copyright and no part should be copied in any media or incorporated into any publication without the written permission of the author. The contents are based on research contained in The Oblivion of Trevithick by the author. Section A is a very brief summary of the rise of steam power, something that would be a mighty tome if the full story of the ideas, disappointments, successes and myths were to be recounted. Section B is a brief summary of Trevithick’s contribution to the development of steam power, how he demonstrated it and how a replica of his 1801 road locomotive was built. Those who study early steam should bear in mind that much of the ‘history’ that has come down to us is based upon the dreams of people seen as sorcerers in their time and bears little reality to what was actually achieved. Very few of the engines depicted in drawings actually existed and only one or two made any significant contribution to the harnessing of steam power. It should also be appreciated that many drawings are retro-respective and close examination shows that they would not work. Many of those who sought to utilise the elusive power liberated when water became steam had little idea of the laws of thermodynamics or what they were doing. It was known that steam could be very dangerous but as it was invisible, only existed above the boiling point of water and was not described in the Holy Bible its existence and the activities of those who sought to contain and use it were seen as the work of the Devil.

  • INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION: SERIES ONE: the Boulton and Watt Archive, Parts 2 and 3

    INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION: SERIES ONE: the Boulton and Watt Archive, Parts 2 and 3

    INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION: SERIES ONE: The Boulton and Watt Archive, Parts 2 and 3 Publisher's Note - Part - 3 Over 3500 drawings covering some 272 separate engines are brought together in this section devoted to original manuscript plans and diagrams. Watt’s original engine was a single-acting device for producing a reciprocating stroke. It had an efficiency four times that of the atmospheric engine and was used extensively for pumping water at reservoirs, by brine works, breweries, distilleries, and in the metal mines of Cornwall. To begin with it played a relatively small part in the coal industry. In the iron industry these early engines were used to raise water to turn the great wheels which operated the bellows, forge hammers, and rolling mills. Even at this first stage of development it had important effects on output. However, Watt was extremely keen to make improvements on his initial invention. His mind had long been busy with the idea of converting the to and fro action into a rotary movement, capable of turning machinery and this was made possible by a number of devices, including the 'sun-and-planet', a patent for which was taken out in 1781. In the following year came the double-acting, rotative engine, in 1784 the parallel motion engine, and in 1788, a device known as the 'governor', which gave the greater regularity and smoothness of working essential in a prime mover for the more delicate and intricate of industrial processes. The introduction of the rotative engine was a momentous event. By 1800 Boulton and Watt had built and put into operation over 500 engines, a large majority being of the 'sun and planet type'.
