Be there or you will miss out on a fun-filled day!! BIG DO STARTS AT MIDDAY In 2004 Michael Stuhrenberg, a German travel writer, stayed in Warleg- gan as a base to write in the magazine “GEO Special” on Cornwall. He was so enchanted by Warleggan that most of his article covered the vil- lage and it’s inhabitants. Below we commence the serialisation of a translation of the resultant article. BEST WISHES FROM WARLEGGAN Virginia Woolf, Daphne du Maurier, Rosamunde Pilcher are all very en- thusiastic about Cornwall`s wild beauty, particularly about its gorgeous coastline which also deeply impresses photographers. Geo-Special- writer Michael Stürenberg was keen on finding out what these celebrities might have failed to notice in Warleggan, a little hamlet on the moor. Michael Stührenberg from Warleggan/Cornwall to Gerda Stührenberg, Bremen-Aumund Dear Auntie Gerda, Since my phone call from our phone box on the moor (I am writing “our” because nobody else apart from us uses it), I have got the impression that there is a misunderstanding between us. Never did I mention that I dislike Cornwall`s coasts! You asked me, if the countryside was really comparable with the one portrayed in Rosamunde Pilcher`s novels like in “Cliffs of Love”. I just pointed out that we all disliked our trip to Land`s End, this famous sight of Cornwall has become a “theme park”, which is a negative development.

Action Plan p59 Appendix: Tavistock Statement of Significance p62 Bibliography p76 Acknowledgement The author is grateful to Alex Mettler and Barry Gamble for their assistance in preparing this strategy. 1 Introduction This strategy sets out a framework and action plan for improving interpretation in Tavistock and for enabling the town to fulfil the requirements of a Key Centre within the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape World Heritage Site (WHS). It is intended to complement the Tavistock World Heritage Site Key Centre Learning Strategy (Kell 2013) which concentrates on learning activities and people. Consequently the focus here is primarily on interpretive content and infrastructure rather than personnel. Aims and objectives The brief set by the Tavistock World Heritage Site Key Centre Steering Group was to identify a consistent, integrated approach to presenting the full range of themes arising from the Outstanding Universal Value of WHS Areas 8, 9 and 10 and to respond to the specific recommendations arising from the WHS Interpretation Strategy (WHS 2005). We were asked to: x Address interpretation priorities in the context of the Cornish Mining WHS x Identify and prioritise target audiences x Set out a clearly articulated framework and action plan for the development of interpretation provision in WHS Area 10, including recommendations which address x Product development (i.e.

    Callington News August 2017 www.callington-tc.gov.uk Bowling Club raises the bar for the second year running A bit of creative flair and a lot of obvious hard work, with a great sense of fun, combined to make the Bowling Club deserved overall winners of the Best Adult Float award in the Carnival and the Best in Carnival with their themed entry of The Armada. With a float which sported Sir Francis Drake and companions and accompanying walkers providing an excellent portrayal of the entire Spanish fleet, the bowlers proved that enthusiasm and a bit of graft can bring just rewards and help a group of people gel. All the entries put in a bucketful of effort and obviously had a great day out, and it was great to see a good number of specialist classic cars and agricultural vehicles, as well as commercial entries from the area. Why not put Saturday 7th July 2018 into your diaries now and set about gathering friends, neighbours or fellow workers to plan, design and build a float or a walking entry? Or, if you would like to get involved in the preparations during the run-up to the carnival, why not join the Carnival Committee? Otherwise, there is always a need for volunteers to help on the day in a variety of roles. Cleaning Up Callington Callington Community Litter Pick Group carried out their third litter pick at the end of June and collected 20+ bags of rubbish around the town. Thank you to everyone that turned up, it is so good to have the support of local business and the community.
