  • DR. BORLASE's ACCOUNT of LUDGVAN by P
    DR. BORLASE'S ACCOUNT OF LUDGVAN By P. A. S. POOL, M.A. (Gwas Galva) R. WILLIAM BORLASE at one time intended to write a D parochial history of Cornwall, and for that purpose collected a large MS. volume of Parochial Memoranda, which is now pre• served at the British Museum (Egerton MSS. 2657). Although of great interest and importance, this consists merely of disjointed notes and is in no sense a finished product. But among Borlase's MSS. at the Penzance Library is a systematic and detailed account, compiled in 1770, of the parish of Ludgvan, of which he was Rector from 1722 until his death in 1772. This has never been published, and the present article gives a summary of its contents, with extracts. The account starts with a discussion of the derivation of the parish name, Borlase doubting the common supposition " that a native saint by his holiness and miracles distinguished it from other districts by his own celebrated name," and concluding that " the existence of such a person as St. Ludgvan . may well be accounted groundless." His own view was that the parish was called after the Manor of Ludgvan, which in turn derived its name from the Lyd or Lid, the name given in Harrison's Description of Britain (1577) to the stream running through the parish. It is noteworthy that the older Ludgvan people still, at the present day, pronounce the name " Lidjan." Borlase next gives the descent of the manor, the Domesday LUDUAM, through the families of Ferrers, Champernowne, Brook, Blount and Paulet.

  • Ludgvan Neighbourhood Plan Local Evidence Report January 2018
    Ludgvan Neighbourhood Plan Local Evidence Report January 2018 Introduction Neighbourhood planning policy and proposals need to be based on a proper understanding of the place they relate to, if it they are to be relevant, realistic and to address local issues effectively. It is important that our Neighbourhood Plan is based on robust information and analysis of the local area; this is called the evidence base. Unless policy is based on firm evidence and proper community engagement, then it is more likely to reflect the assumptions and prejudices of those writing it than to reflect the needs of the wider area and community. This Local Evidence Report presents a topic by topic picture in facts, local opinions and aspirations of what the Parish of Ludgvan is all about in 2017/18, so as to provide the ‘evidence’ on which to base the development of the Ludgvan Neighbourhood Plan. We have used a variety of authoritative sources and recent survey material to put this Report together. To keep it relevant and accessible we have summarised information. Should the reader want more information or background we have provided links wherever possible to the source document. Inevitably we have not found all the information we sought. You are invited to contribute additional material to our evidence base. If you have any additional recent and relevant facts or can provide authoritative opinion about land use-related matters in Ludgvan Parish, please get in touch with the Parish Clerk at: [email protected] At the end of each topic section is a Key Messages box that includes messages discerned from evidence gathered and presented either in this report or the relevant Ludgvan Background Paper prepared by the NP Steering Group and available to view on the Ludgvan NP website1.

  • 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.

  • Response to Inspectors' Note INSP.S14
    Response to Inspectors’ Note INSP.S14 In relation to Penzance & Newlyn 28 June 2018 Introduction This note sets out Cornwall Council’s response to matters relating to Penzance raised by the inspectors in relation to note INSP.S14. This note is set out in the form of five chapters: Chapter 1 – sets out a review of any cumulative impact in relation to heritage and landscape Chapter 2 – sets out the cumulative flood impact assessment Chapter 3 – sets out response to questions raised with regard to transport related matters Chapter 4 – sets out a response to the points raised regarding over supply of industrial land Chapter 5 – summarises actions as a result of the assessments 2 Chapter 1 Landscape & Heritage Cumulative Impacts Review Introduction 1.1 This note has been prepared in response to Note INSP.S14 from the Inspectors conducting the examination of the Cornwall Site Allocations Document (CSADPD), in particular in response to para’s 16 to 19 which raise concerns around potential cumulative impacts from allocations H4, H5, H6, H7 and H8 on the arc of landscape between Heamoor and Gulval and resulting impacts on those settlements, which could lead to conflict with strategic aims 8 and 9 within the CSADPD. Para 19. of INSP.S14 seeks further evidence relating to cumulative effect of allocations on local character, distinctiveness and heritage. 1.2 The submitted evidence base for the CSADPD, includes the Penzance Housing Evidence Base Report (ref: D15.1) including a Landscape Character Assessment (undertaken by Landscape Officers from the Councils Environment Service) of all the land adjoining the urban area of the town.

  • Lejog De Matt Day 1 Part 4
    Day 1 Part 4 Joining a B-road with a sigh of relief, we began to head north-east. The weather was perfect. Bright sunshine and a bit of cloud with a fine tailwind. The road was what Mark euphemistically described as ‘undulating’, meaning next to no flat sections, but had no particularly intimidating hills, either. I had taken the lead and soon realised that, whereas Mark sped away from me on the flats, ‘undulations’, particularly pronounced ones, were more my strength, despite being loaded down with two heavy panniers. It was a bit of a relief, considering all the training that I’d been doing and the fact that Mark was somewhat heavier than me. It also meant that I could ‘rest’ a wee bit on the hills, a strange way of cycling, but somehow effective. We stopped for a lunch in a place called Relebbus. You really have to give the Cornish the prize for wacky place names. Devon has Crapstone and Dog Village and my personal favourite is Cockwood, where I would dearly love to live one day, just for the titillation I’d get telling people my address, but Cornwall takes the cake. In the few hours that we’d been cycling, I’d seen signs for Goldsithney, Cockwells, Ludgvan, Crowlas, Tremethick Cross, Cripplesease and let’s not forget Mousehole. There was also the less exciting, but somehow enticing, Paul. Now I know that this is simply due to my unfamiliarity with the Cornish language, a tongue that is slowly making a comeback after having been pretty much extinct, but if you don’t titter at least once when you see the sign to Tinner’s Bottom, then you’ve got to lighten up a bit.
