The nearby village of Philleigh is centred around a church and the delightful sixteenth century Roseland Inn that successfully tempts the weary traveller with its reputation for good food and fine ales. There has been a church in Philleigh since the seventh century, today there is a thirteenth century tower with the rest of the building being a Victorian restoration of later additions. The village’s old name was in fact Eglos Ros, meaning Heath Church before the church, and subsequently the village, adopted the name of the Parish saint St Filius. The road through Philleigh used to be the old coach road running between London and Penzance which can be traced and seen on maps as early as 1685. This road then led to the River Fal crossings at the Tolverne Ferry and King Harry Ferry where ferry services have been provided since medieval times.

  • Roseland Neighbourhood Development Plan
    THE ROSELAND PLAN OUR ROSELAND - OUR FUTURE www.roselandplan.org [email protected] Roseland Neighbourhood Development Plan Our Plan for the Period 2015 - 2030 Produced by the Roseland Neighbourhood Development Plan Steering Group May 2015 Statement of General Conformity with the Cornwall Local Plan – Strategic Policies, 2016 Following the Adoption of the Cornwall Local Plan: Strategic Policies (CLP) on 22nd November 2016, any Neighbourhood Development Plan ‘made’ prior to that date has been checked against the policies of the CLP for general conformity. The full report may be viewed at www.cornwall.gov.uk The Roseland Peninsula NDP has been assessed to determine whether any of its policies would be in conflict with the policies of the Cornwall Local Plan. In the case of the Roseland Peninsula NDP it was concluded that two policies of the NDP are out of general conformity with the CLP. These are Policies HO3 (Re-use of redundant buildings) and Policy HO4 (new affordable housing). They are not in general conformity because they require affordable housing to be provided below the new thresholds set out in national guidance and the adopted CLP (2016). All other policies of the plan remain in general conformity with the CLP 2016 and should be used in determining planning applications in the NDP area. Details are set out below of the conformity issue on HO3 and HO4 and how we propose that the policies will continue to be used: HO3 – Re-use of redundant buildings Part of this policy is no longer in conformity with Policy 8 of the CLP or National Policy as it is affecting proposals below the required threshold for provision of affordable housing or contributions towards the provision of affordable housing.
