Details Local manager Price: £45,000 Freehold Stuart Brooking Location: Lewannick, Near Launceston, Cornwall 07801 789215 or 01392 436229 Size: Over 5 ½ acres for sale [email protected] OS Landranger: OS No 109 Grid ref: SX 288 809 Nearest post code: PL15 7QQ Description Otri River Wood is approached by taking the well-made track which runs along the southern boundary, passes along another area of private woodland and then bends round to the right. From the point where the track enters Otri River Wood, the woodland extends to both sides of the track providing good access for amenity enjoyment and woodland management. To the left is an area of mature conifers and broadleaves with a stream along the northern boundary. It is easy to identify places where red and roe deer regularly cross the stream. There is a picnic bench here to enjoy this quiet location. The woodland floor in this part of the wood is a typical mix of bluebells and wild garlic. Also running across this section, almost parallel to the track, is a mill leat which at one time carried water to drive the wheel at Trelaske Mill, some 1.5 miles or so to the east. The stream goes on to join the River Inny where otters are a frequent visitors. The River Inny is a tributary of the River Tamar alongside the River Ottery or 'Otri' in Cornish reflecting the habitation of the otter.

  • 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.
