LOCATION Situated on the opposite side of St Ives Bay, Hayle is famed for its three miles of golden sand. The beaches start at the mouth of the estuary, which is regarded as an international quality bird-watching spot. Sightings include avocets, ospreys and a host of wading birds. Following the crescent of the beach brings you to the first lifeguard patrolled beach – Hayle Towans, slightly more sheltered from the Atlantic waves and nearly 2 miles long it offers plenty of room for the whole family. Next is Gwithian, popular with both locals and holiday makers. This is one of the most popular surfing beaches in the area and holds a decent sized swell. Beneath the sands lie the remains of one of Cornwall's oldest churches. The village of Gwithian is an attractive cluster of cottages and church on the winding coastal road between Hayle and Portreath. The stretch of Hayle sands end at Godrevy Point where Godrevy lighthouse stands on an island about 50 metres out to sea. The point and car park are owned by the National Trust. Hayle town is divided into two districts, Copperhouse and Foundry.

We learnt so much about life-cycles, their habitats, mating, adaptations and we also got to handle some pretty big and live shell fish. It was so much fun! AN APPEAL TO ALL DOG OWNERS FROM THE EDITOR There’s no easy way of putting this, but despite previous complaints, some irresponsible dog owners are still allowing their animals to foul the grass verge beside the school.

  • RETALLACK SURNAME March 9 2000 by Greg Retallack

    RETALLACK SURNAME March 9 2000 by Greg Retallack

    RETALLACK SURNAME March 9 2000 by Greg Retallack, Department of Geological Sciences, University of Oregon, Eugene, OR 97403-1272:gregr@ darkwing.uoregon.edu;http://darkwing.uoregon.edu/~dogsci Abstract Retallack is a name endemic to Cornwall, and traceable in that southwestern English county back to 1497. The name is probably derived from Talek, recorded back to 1349, by addition of a demonstrative pronoun (those Taleks!). Talek in turn is most likely from the old Cornish talawg meaning high forehead. The comparable Welsh name Tallwch and Pictish Talorc can be traced back to the 6th century. There are numerous other ideas concerning the origin of the Retallack surname from Cornish place names, Cornish saints, mine workings and Norse and Greek gods, and these are all reviewed here. Retallacks in Cornwall were largely miners and farmers. Many left Cornwall for the United States and Australia in the 1850's. I emigrated to the U.S.A. in 1977, but my great great grandfather emigrated in 1852 to Australia, where I was born and raised. Introduction The Retallack name is unusual and often requires careful spelling out. Pronunciation is also a challenge (correct is r'-TAL-lack, rhymes with metallic). With the advent of the internet and computer-generated genealogical research I have been getting frequent requests for information on the surname and its ancestry. Here is as much as I can reconstruct. Retallack is endemic to Cornwall, England, where it has been a rare name back to the 15th century (Table 1). Since the 19th century it has been part of a global emigration (Table 2) so that there are now more Retallacks in Australia and the U.S.
