    Situated just beside the North Road at the Pendeen end, Wheal Hearle comprises two engine houses which were home to a ten inch winding engine and a thirty inch pumping engine. It was in production from about 1855 and, at its peak, employed just over one hundred men , women and boys. The mine appears to have been short lived with little reported after 1865.

  • West Penwith
    WEST PENWITH Within West Penwith, at the tip of Cornwall, there are geological exposures and examples of Devonian volcanism, granite emplacement, contact metamorphism, metasomatism, mineralization, both endo and exo- granitic, recent Quaternary geologic activity and past exploitation of mineral resources. The area has the famous St Just-Pendeen orefield on the north- western contact of the Land’s End granite. Porth Chapel Porth Chapel beach Sheeted veins Within a short distance along the exposure in the cliff at Porth Chapel beach can be seen in microcosm elements of the intrusion, mineralization and faulting history of West Penwith. The exposure illustrates at least two phases of granite intrusion with enclaves or xenoliths, granitic dyke intrusion, early sheeted vein mineralization tourmalinization and wall rock alteration, later copper mineralization and faulting. Copper mineralization Faulting Granitic dyke Nanjizal Nanjizal Cove looking northwest Geological exposures in the cove clearly illustrate that the granite was intruded as a series of sub horizontal sheets. The cove is cut by a fault, some 4m wide, which seawards forms a sea-cave and the granite has been altered by kaolinization. On the cliffs above is a small ancient open mine working for tin in a narrow tourmaline and quartz structure. Granite sheet Granite Sheet Fault Sennen to Portheras Cove The Tribbens Sennen Cove shore platform Enclave Enclave The area between Sennen and Land’s End on a shore platform known as the Tibbens has an excellent exposure of coarse-grained granite with xenoliths or enclaves. Enclaves or xenoliths are fragments of other rocks incorporated into the magma when being intruded.

  • The Statistical Bias Against Unitary Counties
    THE STATISTICAL BIAS AGAINST UNITARY COUNTIES How local government reorganisation has hidden deprivation and threatens to strip authorities of funding Steve Fothergill and Tony Gore Centre for Regional Economic and Social Research Sheffield Hallam University Final report October 2011 This report has been funded by Durham County Council. An additional input of Prof Fothergill’s time was provided by the Industrial Communities Alliance, the all-party association of local authorities in Britain’s industrial areas. 1 Contents Summary 1. PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF THE REPORT The nature of the problem The report 2. THE AVAILABILITY OF STATISTICS The authorities affected by reorganisation Review of published data Data availability: some conclusions 3. THE IMPACT ON THE MEASUREMENT OF DISADVANTAGE A working method Indices of Deprivation DWP benefits data The impact: an assessment 4. A SPECIAL CASE? The counter-argument The scale of the new unitary counties Why size matters Special case: an assessment 5. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS An unintended by-product of reorganisation Recommendations 2 Summary The reorganisation of local government in parts of England in 2009 has created a statistical anomaly. Whereas data for 36 former district councils is now being discontinued, figures continue to be produced for 201 districts within the surviving two-tier counties. This threatens to hide deprivation in the new unitary counties and, in turn, to erode the likelihood that some of these unitary counties will benefit from funding streams that target areas of disadvantage. This could develop into a major, on-going problem. It would be astonishing if, in the long run, statistics for local disadvantage did not continue to guide policy and funding even though current area-based initiatives are being run down.
