Application on Behalf of Cornwall Council and Caradon Observatory for Bodmin Moor to Be Considered As an International Dark Sky Landscape
1 Executive Summary Bodmin Moor is a special place. Amongst the many environmental designations ranging from the international to the local, Bodmin Moor forms part of an Area of Outstanding Beauty. This means it benefits from the same planning status and protection as English National Parks. Visitors are already drawn to the dramatic panoramas, varied wildlife and intriguing history, with those already in the know also appreciating and learning about the stars in the exceptionally dark night sky. Caradon Observatory readings taken in and around Bodmin Moor quantify the remarkable quality of the sky’s darkness and correspond with the findings of the Campaign to Protect Rural England Night Blight study. The results show that even around the villages there are impressive views of the night sky. There is considerable support from the public and stakeholder organisations for the establishment of Bodmin Moor as an International Dark Sky Landscape with “Park” status. Feedback from residents, businesses, landowners, farmers, astronomers, educators, environmental bodies and other statutory and charitable organisations has helped shape the proposals. Enthusiasm is such that there have already been calls to widen the buffer zone if the designation is successful. The alternative title for the designation stems from local feedback and reflects the AONB status. Bodmin Moor comprises a varied moorland landscape with a few small villages and hamlets so there is very little artificial light. Nevertheless, steps have been taken and are continuing to be made to reduce light pollution, particularly from streets. This means that the vast majority of lighting is sensitive to the dark night sky and is becoming even more sympathetic. -

There is so much going on in the Cornwall botanical world – a New Red Data Book, an imminent Fern Atlas, plans for a new Flora and a Rare Plant Register, plus masses of fieldwork, most notably for Natural England for rare plants on SSSIs, that somehow this publication has kept on being put back as other more urgent tasks vie for precedence. -

HISTORIC ENVIRONMENT RECORD CORNWALL Summary of Sources The standard search used for HERs elsewhere in England for the Framework, proved impractical for the Cornwall HER, due to the size of the database. Instead, the Cornwall Historic Environment Services provided detailed lists of reports commissioned by CCC over the past 20 years. The resource list below has been compiled from these lists, supplemented by selected items from a bibliography of published sources that was prepared in support of the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape World Heritage nomination. Additional material gleaned from other non CHES sources is also included. Cornwall is unlike any other county in England because of the totality of the archaeological evidence for metal mining, and the fact that mining remains have become so central to Cornwall’s historic environment policies; the output of archaeological research has increased greatly in the period leading up to and following the success of the WHS bid. The quantity of grey material is, therefore, on a commensurately large scale. Understandably, the major focus of archaeological research into extractive industries has been on metal mining, but china clay, slate and granite have all received some attention.

Prioritised Action Framework for England
Doc Hab 12-04/04 Council Directive 92/43/EEC on the conservation of natural habitats and of wild fauna and flora and Directive 2009/147/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 November 2009 on the conservation of wild birds FORMAT FOR A PRIORITISED ACTION FRAMEWORK (PAF) FOR NATURA 2000 For the EU Multiannual Financing Period 2014-2020 England including marine to 12 nautical miles (2nd edition) (Version 30 March 2016) Summary of England PAF, 2nd edition This annex to the UK Prioritised Actions Framework applies to Natura 2000 sites in England, including inshore waters up to 12 nautical miles. This 2nd edition updates the first PAF (edition 2013) to incorporate the latest conservation status assessments, the outcomes of the LIFE funded IPENS project (Improvement Programme for England’s Natura 2000 Sites) and views of stakeholders and partners. Prioritised Actions Frameworks set out the priorities and funding needs for Natura 2000. The actions and cost estimates set out in this England PAF do not commit Government or any other organisation to provide additional funding for Natura 2000, although applications under e.g. LIFE and European Maritime and Fisheries Fund do require match funding. Rather the PAF provides a strategic overview to where resources are best targeted in order to improve the condition of England Natura 2000 sites and where possible deliver multiple environmental benefits. This revision will also improve the targeting of actions to better protect and enhance valuable wildlife sites and species, maximising benefits for the environment, people and the economy as part of the Government’s 25 year Environment Plan. -
Cornish Mineral Reference Manual
Cornish Mineral Reference Manual Peter Golley and Richard Williams April 1995 First published 1995 by Endsleigh Publications in association with Cornish Hillside Publications © Endsleigh Publications 1995 ISBN 0 9519419 9 2 Endsleigh Publications Endsleigh House 50 Daniell Road Truro, Cornwall TR1 2DA England Printed in Great Britain by Short Run Press Ltd, Exeter. Introduction Cornwall's mining history stretches back 2,000 years; its mineralogy dates from comparatively recent times. In his Alphabetum Minerale (Truro, 1682) Becher wrote that he knew of no place on earth that surpassed Cornwall in the number and variety of its minerals. Hogg's 'Manual of Mineralogy' (Truro 1825) is subtitled 'in wich [sic] is shown how much Cornwall contributes to the illustration of the science', although the manual is not exclusively based on Cornish minerals. It was Garby (TRGSC, 1848) who was the first to offer a systematic list of Cornish species, with locations in his 'Catalogue of Minerals'. Garby was followed twenty-three years later by Collins' A Handbook to the Mineralogy of Cornwall and Devon' (1871; 1892 with addenda, the latter being reprinted by Bradford Barton of Truro in 1969). Collins followed this with a supplement in 1911. (JRIC Vol. xvii, pt.2.). Finally the torch was taken up by Robson in 1944 in the form of his 'Cornish Mineral Index' (TRGSC Vol. xvii), his amendments and additions were published in the same Transactions in 1952. All these sources are well known, but the next to appear is regrettably much less so. it would never the less be only just to mention Purser's 'Minerals and locations in S.W. -
