  • Pigot 1830 Camelford
    Extract from Pigot’s Directory of Cornwall, 1830 (page 139) Camelford Is a small market town and parliamentary borough, in the parish of Lanteglos and hundred of Lesnewth; 229 miles from London, 56 from Exeter, 12 from Bodmin, and 5 from Bossiney. It is situated amidst good agricultural land, bur devoid of prospects picturesque or even pleasing. A feature, the most prominent in the landscape of the neighbourhood, is a mountain, the ‘Rough Tor’ the highest in the county, about a mile distant, on which are immense square blocks of granite, provincially called the ‘Kairns’. This is a place of little trade; the nearest mine is at Freburget [an error – it should be Treburget] three miles hence; it is prolific in lead, with some silver. The town is governed by a mayor, 8 burgesses, and 10 freemen; these elect two members for parliament; the mayor is the returning officer: the present representatives are, Mark Millbank, Esq. and Colonel Craddock. The parish church is situated at Lanteglos, about a mile from the town; the living is a rectory, in the gift of the See of Exeter; the present incumbent is the Rev. C. Luxmore, and his curate the Rev. Thomas Amory. The only places of worship in the parish besides, are two chapels for dissenters. The market-day is Friday; the fairs are, the first Friday after the 10th March, the 25th May, 17th July, and 6th September. The parish of Lanteglos, with the borough of Camelford, contained, in 1821, 1,256 inhabitants. Post Office, Ann DINHAM, Post Mistress – letters from all parts arrive every morning at half-past seven, and are despatched every afternoon at four.

Otherwise access is down a very narrow and steep path. At the far end of Bagalow Beach is Dria Cove. Hole Beach is Path on loose slate Narrow and steep path named after a quarried ‘cave’ in the cliffs above the beach. The cliffs at the southerly end of the beach have the remains of West and Lanterdan Quarries and The beach can vary enormously depending on an unusual rock ‘pinnacle’, the result of quarrying. the level or build up of sand. Hole Beach has a wonderful expanse of sand at low water but rocky ledges can be exposed at higher levels whilst at other times it can be virtually completely sandy with even a small area above high water mark. This phenomenon also affects Bagalow Beach and Dria Cove which can be reached from Hole Beach at low water and which can be either delightfully sandy or just very rocky. There is no safety equipment. Swimming is dangerous due to strong currents and it is worth going down the beach to the Lifeguard patrolled Trebarwith Strand. The surfing Hole Beach with Bagalow Beach on the right details are the same as Trebarwith Strand. It is not a snorkelling beach at all. The number of rock pools much depends on the amount of rocky areas that are PL34 0EJ - Take the B3263 south of exposed but they are god at Bagalow Beach.

  • Forrabury & Minster Parish Plan
    Forrabury & Minster Parish Plan Boscastle: The Queen’s Head and entrance to harbour. Photo provided by Jonathan Stirrup © Forrabury & Minster Parish Plan This Parish Plan, completed in April 2016, is based on the results of a survey carried out in December 2013. The first part of the report gives a summary of the findings and a commentary from the Steering Group. This is followed, from page 24, by the detailed results, as analysed by an independent person. When this survey was initially conducted 422 questionnaires were successfully delivered to members of the Parish community. Additionally 156 letters were sent to those with a residence in the village but who did not appear on the local electoral register for the area. The steering committee have attempted to be as inclusive as possible for the purposes of gaining a representative view of life in the Parish from as many voices likely to have an interest in the Parish as possible. 230 questionnaires were returned and 5 requests, as a result of the mailshot, were made for a questionnaire. This report is based upon the findings of these 235. Following completion of phase one (the collation of data) and completion of phase two (the completion of this report) 5 more questionnaires were returned that unfortunately have not been included in this report due to time constraints. Boscastle is an old harbour village in North Cornwall, notably famous for a severe flood in 2004. The Parish comprises Forrabury and Minster and Boscastle village as well as outlying areas as far as Slaughterbridge. A detailed image of the Parish and its boundary can be seen on the final page of this report.
