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.

  • The Lanyons of Lanyon, Madron an Incident in the Family History
    THE LANYONS OF LANYON, MADRON AN INCIDENT IN THE FAMILY HISTORY N the fourteenth century there dwelt in the Manor House of Trega- I minion a family bearing that name. This house was some four miles from Lanyon Manor. Joyce Tregaminion and his wife Joan had three children, Richard, the only son and heir, and two daughters named Sibyl and Isabel. The latter married John Robyn als. Luky, said to be a "bond tenant to the Princess of Wales" and this act—"the marital subordination of a free woman to an unfree husband"—resulted in later years in the loss to the family of much of their estates. But that is another story. Sibyl married a John de Lynyen of Lanyon Manor, and either at the end of the year 1344 or beginning of 1345 she visited her old home. As the word "late" is used in speaking of her mother, Joan, she might have just died. When returning to Lanyon Manor, and for some reason we are not given, Sibyl took "some goods and jewels" of her mother's and "carried" them away to her home. It may be that Sibyl's husband, John, knew nothing of bis wife's wrong conduct until she was charged with this felony—by whom we are not told—but, whether ignorantly or knowingly, be was bound by both love and chivalry to give her his protection and the shelter of his home (though the law deemed him an "accessory to a felony") and to face the penalty of his lands becoming forfeit, and he himself outlawed, should the Courts' verdict go against him.

    Post of Gallery Manager – Penwith Gallery, St Ives The Penwith Society of Arts was founded in 1949 by a group of artists in St. Ives, under the distinguished leadership of Ben Nicholson, Barbara Hepworth and Bernard Leach; it now has a unique complex of buildings in Back Road West, including public galleries, artists’ studios and workshops. A charitable company – Penwith Galleries Ltd – was created to arrange the programme of exhibitions, execute all gallery business and manage the entire complex. The galleries present year-round exhibitions by Members and Associates of the society, as well as exhibitions by other artists from Cornwall and artists from further afield. The New Gallery and the Studio Gallery are available for hire when our programme permits. The Penwith is an unrivalled resource for the arts in Cornwall and is part of a unique cluster of visual arts activity in the town, working with other partners such as Tate St Ives, Porthmeor Studios, the St Ives School of Painting, the St Ives Archive and a range of other galleries. Gallery Manager Penwith Galleries Ltd (PGL) is now recruiting for the new post of full-time Gallery Manager. We expect that she or he will be an experienced administrator with a real interest in and enthusiasm for art as well as experience in finance, marketing and sales. The new Manager should demonstrate the ability to oversee effectively our gallery operations and our employees. Applicants must have the management skills to control the gallery’s budget, manage and schedule the gallery staff, plan gallery schedules, set deadlines and so on.

  • 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.

It is structure in textures of colour.’ His ‘monuments’, whether oil paintings, pen and wash drawings, or oil sketches on paper, have varied essentially between two kinds of structure. There is the structure built up of clearly defined, tightly bounded forms of the early geometrical-constructivist work; and there is, in contrast, the flowing, richly textured forms of his later period, so characteristic of Bomberg’s landscape painting. These distinctions seem to exist even in the palette: primary colours and heavily saturated hues in the early works, while the later paintings are more subtle, tonally conceived surfaces.
