The following year the company took over the ships operated by Ford and Jackson on the route between Wales and Ireland. Services were operated between Weymouth, the Channel Islands and France on the former Weymouth and Channel Islands Steam Packet Company routes. Smaller GWR vessels were also used as tenders at Plymouth and on ferry routes on the River Severn and River Dart. The railway also operated tugs and other craft at their docks in Wales and South West England.

There are picturesque harbours and grand country houses set in vast acreages. There are impressive landmarks from the past such as Tintagel Castle, St Michael’s Mount and more standing stones and Neolithic sites than you can shake a stick at. They exist happily alongside the present day futuristic domes of Eden, the stately grey bulk of Tate St Ives, old Mine chimneys (sensibly bestowed with World Heritage status) and the spoil heaps of the clay pits near St Austell. 35 BEST OF CORNWALL 2020 However there is more to Cornwall’s appeal than It was clear that luck landmarks.

  • Newsletter 164 Summer 2014
    NEWSLETTER 164 SUMMER 2014 Known to the Trevithick Society as the Gawns wheel, it was re-christened the Lady Evelyn in 2006 once it had been restored to its original site at Laxey on the Isle of Man. Reg. Charity 1 No. 246586 CHAIRMAN’S ADDRESS Horse and cart Elsewhere in this newsletter there are details of our Facebook social media page. A recent survey in a Society meeting at King Edward Mine revealed that only four members out of the twenty four present had any connection with Facebook. I know the understanding of its technology doesn’t come easily to those of us who are elderly folk but this has happened in every generation. I well remember the fear some people had that the television set in the corner of the room was spying on them and there were those who rejected the motor car in favour of the horse and cart. I agree that both those innovations were expensive and that may have been the real reason for avoiding them. However, Facebook is free and it’s the way we communicate with future members. In a few years most members of this Society will be able to skateboard, I wonder what technology they will be avoiding. The recent AGM Weekend in North Cornwall was a very pleasant success in spite of the weather. It was clear that those present enjoyed themselves, renewed friendships and took the opportunity to celebrate their membership of the Society, its existence and achievements. Our thanks are due to those who organised the events and prepared the illustrated notes.

    Tam Kernewek “ A bit of Cornish” Volume 32 Issue 3 Fall 2014 Cornish American Heritage Society Cornish American Heritage 48 Presidents’ Messages I can't believe the excitement of the 17th Gathering is over! It has been a whirlwind and a great success. The Cornish Society of Greater Milwaukee pulled it off well, if I do say so myself. Thanks to all the great presenters and Cornish Cous- ins who really made it a family reunion. It was a pleasure meeting many names I had only read before. I am so happy that Kathryn Herman has agreed to take over as president. After two years of working with her on the plan- ning committee, I know she is a woman of great organization and imagination. Her knowledge of Cornwall and connec- tions there will give the CAHS a direction I couldn't give. I will be happy to continue serving as an officer (historian), so I can work on projects for the Society. As I hand over the role of president to Kathryn, I will be finishing up some things started at the Gathering. (And Kathryn deserves to catch her breath!) Our business meeting was cut short. Ultimately that may be an advantage, since some questions might be better addressed via e-mails with the participants, rather than a hurried discussion we would have had there. If any of the CAHS members not present at the Gathering would like to be included in the discussion, please write me. Again, thanks to all for the great Gathering! It is now a matter of continuing the energy we had in Milwaukee.

  • Curnow's Cornish Calendar No 11
    Curnow’s Cornish Calendar No 11 Porthleven & the 16th Sunday after Trinity 5 October 2003 With a rare free Sunday evening we headed for Porthleven near Helston. An arrangement with Beatrice Kerno-Plummer gave us access to one of her flats overlooking the harbour. Construction of the harbour began in 1811 with demand for coal to supply mines. In 1824 it was completely washed away. In 1855 Harvey and Co from Hayle leased and improved the harbour. Two cannons either side of the harbour were fired at Napoleon’s navy during the battle of Brest. It was Harvest Thanksgiving at Sithney and being the guests of Beatrice we were short on details. It was not surprising that after a look at the harbour that we ended up at Sithney, a little country village not far away to have afternoon tea at the home of Isobel Martin and her son Tom. (Relatives of Rev Robyn Pryor who was a colleague in our Blackburn Parish (Victoria) whom we had visited 12 months before.) Our company included three true blue Cornish ladies and five Cornish Bards, Neil Plummer, Beatrice, Vivian Pryor, Bill and Gwen Phillips from Victoria, Australia. At 5.55pm with the church bell tolling we stepped across the road onto the path of the Churchyard. The Cornish flag enjoyed a stiff breeze on the top on the Bell tower. I noted one slate headstone dated 1789 and it seemed that no one had cut the grass since the 18 Century!!! I was ready to experience a sung Harvest Thanksgiving Evensong. When visiting Cornish Bards and members of the Old Cornish Society were welcomed I realised that we were associating with esteemed company indeed!! Six parallel granite arches stretched the length of the old church with small chapels and altars either side.
