1883 (Page 857) Extract from Kelly’s Directory of Cornwall, 1883 (page 857) ST. DENNIS St. Dennis, in Domesday Lan-Dines (the church of the hill), is a township and parish, consisting of several small villages and hamlets; it is bounded on the north-west by the river Fal, 5 miles north-by- west from Burngullow station, on the Cornwall railway and 7 north-west from St Austell, in the Eastern division of the county, eastern division of the hundred of Powder, St Austell union and county court district, rural deanery of St Austell, archdeaconry of Cornwall and diocese of Truro. St Dennis Junction Mineral station is 1½ miles from St Dennis. The new quay tram or railway passes through the parish and by it large quantities of china clay and porcelain stone are exported. The church of St Dennis, situated on a conical hill, in the midst of an old entrenchment, near the goss moors, and protected on the north by a plantation of firs, was rebuilt in 1847 and is a plain but substantial building of native porcelain stone, rectangular in plan, with a semi-hexagonal roof and a tower of two stages, with short pinnacles and containing 3 bells, of which the treble and tenor are dated 1687 and 1738; the second bell is undated: near the porch is an ancient granite cross, about six feet high: the porch, spoiled by a modern addition, and the tower, are all that remain of the old church, which consisted of two aisles and a transept, and contained a reputed Saxon font: the arches and columns were removed to Nanpean, and four of the latter are worked into the wall at the entrance to the churchyard there. St Dennis churchyard was enclosed by a wall in 1826, its boundary having previously been marked by a trench only. The register dates from 1687. The living is a rectory, yearly value from tithe rent-charge £253 10s.; net income, £190 with residence and 5 acres of glebe, in the gift of Capt. Cyril Dudley Fortescue, and held since 1852 by the Rev. John Glynn Childs B.A. of Trinity College, Cambridge. The United Free Methodists have a chapel, and the Bible Christians one, and another of same denomination at Whitemoor. The feast of St Dennis is celebrated annually on October 9th, if it fall on a Sunday; if not, on the Sunday following. In this and the adjoining parish of St Stephen are some of the largest clay works in the county: china-stone is also dug out in great abundance. Viscount Falmouth, who is lord of the manor, Messrs. Ivimey & Gill, of London, Capt. Edyvean, and the Hawkey trustees, are the principal landowners. The soil is clay; subsoil, disintegrated granite. The land is principally pasturage. The acreage is 3,370; rateable value, £6,048; the population in 1881 was 1,235. Trelaver, a quarter of a mile south, and Hendra, half a mile south, are villages; Enniscaven is another village, 1 mile north-east. Fairs are held here on May 20th and October 28th. Parish Clerk, James Truscott. Post Office – Mrs Betsy Cock, postmistress. Letters through St Austell, arrive at 9.30 a.m.; dispatched at 2.30 p.m. St Austell is the nearest money order office & Roche the nearest telegraph office.

  • The History of a Moorland Chapel
    The History of a Moorland Chapel Enniscaven Compiled by Mr. J. Liddicoat Reproduced by kind permission of Mr. Kenneth Liddicoat The History of a Moorland Chapel Enniscaven Compiled by Mr. J. Liddicoat 1. Outside the old chapel - Raising funds for the new chapel. Picture taken approx 1907 It was in the late 1820's or early 1830's that the first known meetings for worship were held in the little hamlet of Enniscaven situated between St.Dennis and Roche on the edge of Goss Moor. The hamlet was very small in those days consisting of approximately twenty-five cob built cottages. The first meetings were held in the homes of the new Christian people, travelling to each others home for worship. One can hardly imagine the hallelujah's and amen's that were raised by the newly converted Christians. The numbers increased and soon it was too large for what we would term today house-fellowships. The next meeting place was the barn situated in the centre of the village. It is not known how they managed their seating arrangements or how the singing was led, perhaps a concertina or a flute was used. Again the congregation was too large for this building and some other meeting place was needing urgent erection. A plot of land 35ft. in length and 20ft. wide was leased for a number of years at one shilling or by today's terms 5p a year, in the year 1840. ************ Building the new Chapel commenced immediately, being constructed of cob and stone, having a window on each side and two in the end, but being half the size of the building as we know it today.

The presentation of all monitoring features into these catchment maps will assist in developing an integrated approach to catchment management and operation. The water quality monitoring maps and index were originally incorporated into the Catchment Action Plans. They provide a visual presentation of monitored sites within a catchment and enable water quality data to be accessed easily by all departments and external organisations. The maps bring together information from different sections within Water Quality. The routine river monitoring and tidal water monitoring points, the licensed waste disposal sites and the monitored effluent discharges (pic, non-plc, fish farms, COPA Variation Order [non-plc and pic]) are plotted. The type of discharge is identified such as sewage effluent, dairy factory, etc. Additionally, river impact and control sites are indicated for significant effluent discharges. If the watercourse is not sampled then the location symbol is qualified by (*). Additional details give the type of monitoring undertaken at sites (ie chemical, biological and algological) and whether they are analysed for more specialised substances as required by: a. EC Dangerous Substances Directive b. EC Freshwater Fish Water Quality Directive c. DOE Harmonised Monitoring Scheme d. DOE Red List Reduction Programme c.

  • Clifford Trethewey
    Clifford Trethewey BOOK 2 Introduction Plymouth’s First Generation It really was quite a sight. Black and white hulls moored three and four abreast, without their spars, as far as the eye could see. John and Ann had been to Plymouth Dock before when the war with France was still being fought and the Hamoaze was devoid of ships. Three years had passed since that time and John was carrying a small boy who had never seen a ship before. That boy would eventually become the father of four brothers who would all join Victoria’s Navy, but that was still years into the future. Ann’s passenger was asleep in a carrying basket as the boatman helped her into the boat with all their worldly possessions. When he pushed them off the beach and deployed his oars before the tide could capture their hesitation, he set the boat’s head towards North Corner. There, they would set foot in Devon and the new life that awaited them. Of course this is a Family History that is more than 200 years old. Facts and records are scarce. I am fortunate in the fact that John and Ann had EIGHT children, but they also buried three of them, yet every record survives to follow their path from house to house and job to job. No Family Historian encourages conjecture, but neither does any family exist without the question ‘why did they do that?’ It has been particularly difficult to suggest a way in which John became a stonemason. He could not have done it without help and in a strange and overwhelming town that help was most likely to come from a relative or a friend.
