  • 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.

  • Note8 on Cornish Mineral Localities
    92 X.--Note8 on Cornish Mineral Localities. By 3. H. Co~Iss, F.G.S. HE following brief notes may be of some interest to students of T Cornish Mineralogy. I st.--l~Ew LocaLItIEs. Seheelite.--This occurs as a partial replacement of Wolfram at East Pool Mine, where it was first noticed by Mr. Cornelius Beringer, of Redruth, an Associate Member of this Society. Hitherto it has "only been found at Pengelly Croft, Huel Mandlin, and Levant Mine, in Cornwall, ~ and at Huel Friendship, in Devon. Montmorillonite.mThis member of the chloropal group of minerals t has recently been foucrd at Great Retallack Mine, in Perranzabuloe, Cornwall. It is associated with decomposing pyrites, but on careful separation yields the following results on analysis. Silica .............. 47"9 Peroxide of iron ........ 1"2 Alumina ............ 27" 1 Water .............. 23"0 Potash and loss .......... -8 I00'0 This agrees very closely indeed with the formula A12 Ha O~, 3SiOs + 2H20 , occupying the aluminous end of the same series in which ehloropal occupies the terruginous end. No doubt this Montmorillonite is a secondary product, .and therefore of little interest to mineralogists who care for nothing but crystallography, but it is interesting to chemical mineralogists as illustrating the con- stant tendency of the operations in nature's laboratory to produce definite chemical compounds rather than mere mixtures. Millerit~--This I have recently found in a vein traversing black silurian schist at Gerrans Bay, in Col~wall, in a cavity lined with pale * See Handbook, to the Mineralogy of Cornwall and Devon, part 2, p. 90 ; and Min.

  • Ref: LCAA1820
    Ref: LCAA7916 Offers around £550,000 Owls House, Ladock, Nr. Truro, Cornwall, TR2 4PW FREEHOLD A grandly proportioned and extensive 5 bedroomed, 4 bathroomed south facing period house extending to almost 3,500sq.ft. – a significant portion of a grand country house within a few miles of Truro. An opportunity to live in one of the area’s most impressive historic residences enjoying the high ceilinged, detail filled accommodation with integral garage, carport and long south facing garden looking out across countryside. 2 Ref: LCAA7916 SUMMARY OF ACCOMMODATION Ground Floor: reception hall, dining room, drawing room, kitchen, sitting room, utility room, bathroom, integral garage, basement. First Floor: landing, master bedroom with balcony and en-suite shower room. 2 further bedrooms, shower room. Second Floor: landing, 2 double bedrooms (1 with former kitchenette off), bathroom. Outside: long south facing garden with large terrace, deck, summerhouse, shed and deep shrub lined boundaries. Broad carport to the front opening to the garage. DESCRIPTION Owls House is the central portion of one of the grandest houses in Cornwall and certainly within such close proximity to Truro. The non-listed building is believed to have been started in the late 1870’s by the Rector Stanford Raffles Flint (with family connection to Raffles Hotel, named after the founder of Singapore), who went on to become Archdeacon and a Canon of Truro Cathedral. As his family grew the house was increased in size significantly but always in keeping with the original to give a harmonious many gabled appearance over three storeys with outstanding chimneys and architectural details such as stone balustraded balconies and patterned stone detailing to the exterior.
