  • Application on Behalf of Cornwall Council and Caradon Observatory for Bodmin Moor to Be Considered As an International Dark Sky Landscape
    1 Executive Summary Bodmin Moor is a special place. Amongst the many environmental designations ranging from the international to the local, Bodmin Moor forms part of an Area of Outstanding Beauty. This means it benefits from the same planning status and protection as English National Parks. Visitors are already drawn to the dramatic panoramas, varied wildlife and intriguing history, with those already in the know also appreciating and learning about the stars in the exceptionally dark night sky. Caradon Observatory readings taken in and around Bodmin Moor quantify the remarkable quality of the sky’s darkness and correspond with the findings of the Campaign to Protect Rural England Night Blight study. The results show that even around the villages there are impressive views of the night sky. There is considerable support from the public and stakeholder organisations for the establishment of Bodmin Moor as an International Dark Sky Landscape with “Park” status. Feedback from residents, businesses, landowners, farmers, astronomers, educators, environmental bodies and other statutory and charitable organisations has helped shape the proposals. Enthusiasm is such that there have already been calls to widen the buffer zone if the designation is successful. The alternative title for the designation stems from local feedback and reflects the AONB status. Bodmin Moor comprises a varied moorland landscape with a few small villages and hamlets so there is very little artificial light. Nevertheless, steps have been taken and are continuing to be made to reduce light pollution, particularly from streets. This means that the vast majority of lighting is sensitive to the dark night sky and is becoming even more sympathetic.

  • NEWSLETTER and DIARY ISSUE 3. for Lewannick, Polyphant and Trevadlock JUNE 1986
    NEWSLETTER AND DIARY ISSUE 3. For Lewannick, Polyphant and Trevadlock JUNE 1986 On Thursday, May 8th. Mr Robin Catford, Ecclesiastical Secretary to the Lord Chancellor, Lord Hailsham, visited St. Martin’s Church. He was invited by the Parochial Church Council to discuss their long-standing objections to the Bishops of Truro’s proposal to include Lewannick in a much larger Team Ministry. A fuller report is included in the Church’s newssheet and has appeared in the local Press. ***************** Congratulations to Mike and Joy White on the occasion of their marriage at St. Blazey Methodist Church on Saturday, May 10. We hope they will be very happy amongst us at Glebelands, Lewannick. ***************** The BAPTISM took place on Sunday, May 18, at St. Martin’s, of Nicholas Terence the infant son of Terry and Susan Jasper of Belstone, Polyphant. ***************** Discussions are still going on in the district about the possibility of running a COMMUNITY BUS. Oliver Baines, from Cornwall Rural Community Council cam to a meeting at Lezant, on Monday, May 19, where he met representatives of surrounding Parish Councils and outlined the scheme whereby they can sponsor a bus on permanent loan from CRCC for a down payment of £500. Parishes and clubs in the area would then undertake to maintain, drive, insure and repair the vehicle, putting aside about £1000 a year to pay for a replacement in 5 years time. North Hill and Lewannick have both discussed the proposals but each has decided they cannot ‘go it alone’ because there are not enough clubs to justify the use and give the necessary support.

  • Cornish Mineral Reference Manual
    Cornish Mineral Reference Manual Peter Golley and Richard Williams April 1995 First published 1995 by Endsleigh Publications in association with Cornish Hillside Publications © Endsleigh Publications 1995 ISBN 0 9519419 9 2 Endsleigh Publications Endsleigh House 50 Daniell Road Truro, Cornwall TR1 2DA England Printed in Great Britain by Short Run Press Ltd, Exeter. Introduction Cornwall's mining history stretches back 2,000 years; its mineralogy dates from comparatively recent times. In his Alphabetum Minerale (Truro, 1682) Becher wrote that he knew of no place on earth that surpassed Cornwall in the number and variety of its minerals. Hogg's 'Manual of Mineralogy' (Truro 1825) is subtitled 'in wich [sic] is shown how much Cornwall contributes to the illustration of the science', although the manual is not exclusively based on Cornish minerals. It was Garby (TRGSC, 1848) who was the first to offer a systematic list of Cornish species, with locations in his 'Catalogue of Minerals'. Garby was followed twenty-three years later by Collins' A Handbook to the Mineralogy of Cornwall and Devon' (1871; 1892 with addenda, the latter being reprinted by Bradford Barton of Truro in 1969). Collins followed this with a supplement in 1911. (JRIC Vol. xvii, pt.2.). Finally the torch was taken up by Robson in 1944 in the form of his 'Cornish Mineral Index' (TRGSC Vol. xvii), his amendments and additions were published in the same Transactions in 1952. All these sources are well known, but the next to appear is regrettably much less so. it would never the less be only just to mention Purser's 'Minerals and locations in S.W.

    Geoscience in south-west England SOME NOTABLE CORNISH BUILDING AND DECORATIVE STONES C.M. BRISTOW Bristow, C.M. 2001. Some notable Cornish building and decorative stones. Geoscience in south-west England, 10, 000-000. Arising mainly from its exceptionally varied suites of intrusive igneous rocks, Cornwall has a rich variety of building and decorative stones which were extensively exploited, both for local and export use, before concrete and brick came to dominate construction in the 20th century. Basic igneous rocks include a metabasic rock at Cataclews Point, west of Padstow, which provided the extremely durable Cataclews Stone from Norman times onwards; this was used extensively for medieval fonts and church carvings in North Cornwall. Polyphant Stone, formed by carbonatization of an ultrabasic intrusion, is composed of a mixture of talc, chlorite and various calcium and magnesium carbonates and the Polyphant quarry was recently reopened to supply stone for the rebuilding of Newquay parish church. Allied to Polyphant Stone is Duporth Stone, worked from the cliffs of Duporth Bay, south of St. Austell and used extensively in the pillars of Truro Cathedral. Granites were notably worked in the eastern part of the Carnmenellis Granite (mainly in Mabe parish), in the St. Austell Granite (Luxulyan, Carn Grey and the china stone areas) and on Bodmin Moor (De Lank, Hantergantick, Cheesewring, etc). A significant industry developed in the 19th and early 20th centuries, employing large numbers of skilled quarrymen, with granite exported world- wide. A tourmalinized granite, luxullianite, was an important decorative stone, used for example in the Duke of Wellington’s sarcophagus in St.
