Ref: LCAA1820 Ref: LCAA7649 £275,000 (to include all contents) Treplevna, 20 Lower Boscaswell, Pendeen, Penzance, Cornwall, TR19 7EP FREEHOLD A restored, extended and beautifully updated classic single fronted 2 bedroomed historic cottage with parking, front and rear gardens and fantastic views over countryside to the Atlantic Ocean framed by Pendeen Lighthouse. Offered for sale with all of its contents included and healthy holiday rental bookings, this is a perfect turnkey cottage in an easily accessible coastal location within walking distance of the sandy beach at Portheras Cove, the village shop and pub. 2 Ref: LCAA7649 SUMMARY OF ACCOMMODATION Ground Floor: conservatory, lounge, kitchen/dining room, bathroom. First Floor: 2 bedrooms. Outside: generous off-road parking area with granite faced stores. Long granite walled level front garden with lawn, beds, mature shrubs and gravelled terrace. Gravelled rear garden with gate onto a path leading to the coast path. DESCRIPTION Treplevna is found in the historic mining and farming hamlet of Lower Boscaswell which lies within the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is noted for having prehistoric settlements and a Cornish Fugu. Treplevna looks out over this fascinating protected landscape to a great expanse of the Atlantic Ocean with Pendeen Lighthouse creating a focal point to one side. Paths in the vicinity lead down to the South West Coast Path which descends to Portheras Cove just beyond Pendeen Lighthouse which is a superb sandy beach well off the tourist trail. Treplevna is a gorgeous granite cottage which has then been extended to the front with a contemporary conservatory and also a single storey to the rear creating the long kitchen/dining room and the high quality bathroom. The extensions have only added a modern twist to this handsome end of terrace cottage and have not deprived it of its character. Beyond the contemporary slate floored conservatory, which enjoys complete 3 Ref: LCAA7649 privacy and looks down the long garden, is a good sized lounge with a painted beamed and boarded ceiling higher than that you would normally expect to find in a cottage. The lounge also has a woodburning stove set into an inglenook fireplace with thick granite lintel and has contemporary slate flooring which then runs through the kitchen/dining room and bathroom as well. The kitchen has an extensive array of integrated appliances fitted into painted wood fronted units under granite worktops and its broad windows look out to sea. The bathroom is done in a modern period style in fitting of the rest of the property. On the first floor are two bedrooms, the main one being to the front with an outlook over countryside, with the one to the rear looking out over the sea. This property also has a surprisingly useful and useable amount of outside space including parking and a granite faced stores on the lane side with granite walls then lining the long lawned front garden with planted beds. To the rear is a low maintenance gravelled garden with a gate opening onto paths heading down towards the coast. Treplevna is currently used as a holiday rental property and was our clients’ own holiday home whilst they lived in London, however they loved the area so much that they have recently moved to Pendeen and have decided to sell. The property is therefore sold with ongoing holiday lettings although these can be ceased from the end of September if this is more suitable for a new owner. All of the contents are included in the price allowing the purchaser to continue to use Treplevna in the same way as it has been without any disruption. Treplevna offers a new owner a spectacularly located, well furnished and already successful holiday rental property in an accessible yet remote feeling part of Cornwall with a unique nature unlike anywhere else in the British Isles. LOCATION 4 Ref: LCAA7649 The coastal hamlet of Lower Boscaswell is adjacent to Pendeen and is about a mile from Portheras Cove which is one of a few good sized beaches in the area and sits below Pendeen Lighthouse. A little known beach, it is revered by local surfers, although in calmer conditions it is ideal for families. The South West Coast Path leads away from Portheras Cove giving dramatic cliff top walks over National Trust owned land with views that have inspired artists for generations. The village of Pendeen is one of the most westerly in the British Isles and is well served for its size with a very good shop, two public houses serving food, a fish & chip takeaway, post office, hall, church and nursery. A few miles to the south is St Just, known as the last town in England, where a fuller range of facilities can be found. Only a few miles further on is Land’s End and the picturesque harbourside village of Sennen overlooking Whitesand Bay with views to the Isles of Scilly. The coastal road to the north leads to St Ives, one of Cornwall’s most popular seaside resorts, with many cafés, restaurants and art galleries set around its harbour and overlooking its surfing beaches. About 10 minutes’ drive away is Penzance which has the greatest range of services in West Cornwall, including supermarkets, the terminus for the Penzance to Paddington railway line, a local hospital and education up to college level.

  • Responsibilities for Flood Risk Management
    Appendix A - Responsibilities for Flood Risk Management The Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) has overall responsibility for flood risk management in England. Their aim is to reduce flood risk by: • discouraging inappropriate development in areas at risk of flooding. • encouraging adequate and cost effective flood warning systems. • encouraging adequate technically, environmentally and economically sound and sustainable flood defence measures. The Government’s Foresight Programme has recently produced a report called Future Flooding, which warns that the risk of flooding will increase between 2 and 20 times over the next 75 years. The report produced by the Office of Science and Technology has a long-term vision for the future (2030 – 2100), helping to make sure that effective strategies are developed now. Sir David King, the Chief Scientific Advisor to the Government concluded: “continuing with existing policies is not an option – in virtually every scenario considered (for climate change), the risks grow to unacceptable levels. Secondly, the risk needs to be tackled across a broad front. However, this is unlikely to be sufficient in itself. Hard choices need to be taken – we must either invest in more sustainable approaches to flood and coastal management or learn to live with increasing flooding”. In response to this, Defra is leading the development of a new strategy for flood and coastal erosion for the next 20 years. This programme, called “Making Space for Water” will help define and set the agenda for the Government’s future strategic approach to flood risk. Within this strategy there will be an overall approach to the assessing options through a strong and continuing commitment to CFMPs and SMPs within a broader planning framework which will include River Basin Management Plans prepared under the Water Framework Directive and Integrated Coastal Zone Management.

  • 3.0 History and Development
    3.0 HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENT 3.1 The History of Pendeen Early settlement in the area of Pendeen was made up of scattered farmsteads and hamlets lying below the hilly moors, set amongst extensive open commons and wastes and ancient farmlands leading down to the sea cliffs. By at least the 16th century, these hamlets were partly agricultural, partly fishing and partly industrial, with tin stream-working in the Boscaswell Downs/ Calartha/ Portherras area, and some coastal extraction. Mineral extraction and processing was, indeed, already creating considerable local wealth when the principal local manor house (Pendeen Manor), was rebuilt in 1670 by John Borlase, newly enriched by the profits on tin. However, it was the 1820's that saw the great expansion in the tin industry which was to create from this dispersed landscape of farms and hamlets recognisable villages (Pendeen/Lower Boscaswell). Apart from Geevor, most of the mines here were small or, like Boscaswell United Mine, intensely worked but short-lived, with the main period of working between 1820 and 1857. The majority closed in the 1870's tin crash and, except for Geevor, all mining activity in the immediate area ceased by the First World War. Mining shaped the history and landscape around Pendeen. The view from Carn Eanes shows the close proximity of Geevor (left of centre) and the mining coast line, including Levant Mine (right) to Pendeen Waterpower was always important in both extraction and processing of tin, and thus in the siting and make-up of local settlements. The numerous small, steep local streams were supplemented by complex leat systems that drove mines, stamping mills (those in the Portherras Valley were active in the 1870's, but gone by 1908) and an extensive system of 7 corn mills (especially the Rose Valley), a reflection of the continuing strength of local agriculture throughout this period.

  • Pendeen Lighthouse
    U.S. Lighthouse Society ~ Lighthouses of the United Kingdom Pendeen Lighthouse (Pendeen , St Just in Penwith, Cornwall) History For nearly 100 years Pendeen Lighthouse has been guiding passing vessels and warning of the dangerous waters around Pendeen Watch. From Cape Cornwall the coast runs NE by E towards the Wra, or Three Stone Oar, off Pendeen. From here the inhospitable shore continues for a further eight miles or so to the Western entrance of St. Ives Bay, the principal feature here being the Gurnards Head, on which many ships have come to grief. Until 1891 maritime safety off Pendeen depended more on activity after a wreck rather than effective prevention, the ʺAdmiralty Sailing Directionsʺ for that year being only able to report a ʺCoastguard Station where a rocket apparatus is keptʺ. The high cliffs along this sector of coastline prevented passing vessels from catching sight of either Trevose Head to the East or the Longships to the West; and so numbers of them, unable to ascertain their position, were lost, particularly on the groups of A NON-PROFIT HISTORICAL & EDUCATIONAL SOCIETY U.S. Lighthouse Society ~ Lighthouses of the United Kingdom sunken and exposed rocks near Pendeen Watch. Trinity House became increasingly concerned about this state of affairs as the nineteenth century drew to its close, and decided to erect a lighthouse and fog signal at Pendeen. Designs for the building were prepared by Sir Thomas Matthews, the Trinity House Engineer, their construction being undertaken by Arthur Carkeek, of Redruth, with Messrs. Chance, of Birmingham supplying the lantern. The buildings occupy a large area and before work could begin the cap of the Point had to be removed and the whole headland flattened, which necessitated the building of a huge retaining wall on the seaward side.

  • GOGARTH Barbara James
    @ Pinnacle Club and Author All Rights Reserved GOGARTH Barbara James 6 4 /^LIFFS 500 feet high vertical grass slopes above nothing ^ under V.S. loose rock committing abseils". Many extravagant claims have been made about the cliffs at Gogarth. The various climbing areas each have very characteristic differences and so I intend to follow a trend and to write brief and very personal notes about a climb on each of the five more frequented areas around South and North Lighthouses. It seems appropriate to begin with the area of cliff requiring least ambulatory effort although perhaps the most mental effort to commit oneself seawards. 1. Pel'. Castell Helen "Steep rock covered in a profusion of large and solid holds". Two abseils take pegs. Beware undertow when pulling down the abseil rope. Which is preferable, committing abseils or descents down vertical grass and loose gullies? No choice anyway. At least the P.A.'s will cause less pain. Comfortable abseils lead to an adequate stance for both the second and the rope. Start climbing. Is this really V.S.? Oops, a slip on bird lime and I remember the sea below. An awkward corner is reached and the sea is forgotten. Holds just arrive and suddenly it is over. Second pitch. Which way? It could be any from this des­ cription. It must be up here. Committed. Help, it must have been over there. Too late. Runner on. Of course it is this way. Oh, I'm there. Back to the cafe and home-made scones. 2. "Mousetrap". Mousetrap Zawn "Intricate and inescapable line on friable rock".
