    LUDGVAN PARISH COUNCIL ================ Chairman: Councillor Mr Nigel Honess Clerk to the Council: 12 Carnsew Meadow Mr L W Edwards Hayle Cornwall Tel: (01736) 751790 TR27 4JW MINUTES OF THE MONTHLY MEETING OF THE PARISH COUNCIL HELD ON WEDNESDAY, 11th JANUARY 2012, IN THE LUDGVAN OASIS CHILD CARE CENTRE, LOWER QUARTER, LUDGVAN. (Subject to confirmation at the next monthly meeting of the Council) PRESENT: Councillors: Mr N Honess (Chairman), Mr P Vaughan, Mr K Hopkins, Mrs M Powell, Mr R Sargeant, Ms Bradley-Peer, Ms L Donnelly, & Cornwall Councillor Miss A.I. Bailey. IN ATTENDANCE: Mr L. Edwards, clerk. ____________________________________________________________________ Public Participation Period; The chairman opened the PPP at 7.15 pm and invited Mr Peter Bainbridge, Principal Development Officer, Cornwall Council to address the PC regarding the planned construction of the proposed Public Transport Interchange at St Erth. Mr Bainbridge explained the reasons for the proposal and how the project would integrate rail, bus and private car users during the busy summer holiday periods and to a lesser degree the out of season users. The opportunity would be taken to change the station crossroads layout and bring the junction under a traffic control system. It was envisaged that a park & ride bus/train services would eventually operate to Hayle, St Ives and Penzance. This coupled with enhanced facilities at the railway station including a new footbridge are all part of the strategic plan to encourage visitors to use the projected park and ride system. During a question period concerns were expressed regarding the anticipated traffic build up back to the St Erth roundabout and beyond.

That makes 229 resident • Open stony, sparsely-vegetated areas on free-draining soils presumably maintained either by exposure breeding species, of which about 63% (147) are RDB (8), Nationally Scarce (46) or rare in the county (93). or grazing: Ophonus puncticollis – see extinct species above Where a species has been accorded “Nationally Scarce” or “British Red Data Book” status this is shown • On dry sandy soils, usually on coast, presumably maintained by exposure or grazing: immediately following the scientific name.

  • Cornwall in the Bronze Age AICIA M CISIE
    CORNISH ARCHAEOLOGY No. 25 (1986) Cornwall in the Bronze Age AICIA M CISIE The Concept of a Bronze 'Age' Any review of the Bronze Age in Cornwall, or indeed in other areas of the British Isles, must today present the writer with a very different prospect to that which lay before Bernard Wailes 28 years ago, although much of the basic information remains the same. We now know, for example, that metallurgy was introduced into these islands before the middle of the third millennium bc, probably from two continental quarters, the Rhineland and the Atlantic region. Our period has lengthened and the calibration of radiocarbon dates means that it not only overlaps the Late Neolithic but also merges into the Iron Age in the mid-first millennium BC, giving a total of some 2000 years. The accumulation of data and dates, togther with advances in excavation and research techniques and the recognition of regional variation, make the whole concept of a Bronze 'age' far more complex than hitherto. In the 1960s, HawkeV scheme for the divisions of the British Bronze Age provided the framework (Hawkes, 1960) and was widely accepted in principle. As more radiocarbon dates have become available, there have nevertheless been surprises and many refinements have been applied, allowing a broader, more flexible approach into which ceramics and metalwork can be fitted. Today the most widely accepted scheme is that propounded by Burgess (in 5/0 wo OE AGE SIES SS 00 SX - 2,0 Fig 1 Location map showing principal sites mentioned in the text. Settlements or occupation
