  • Pigot's 1830 Bodmin & Wadebridge.Docx
    Extract from Pigot’s Directory of Cornwall, 1830 (pages 135‐136) Bodmin and Wadebridge Bodmin is a borough, market town and parish, in the hundred of Trigg; 234 miles from London, 62 from Exeter, 60 from the Land’s End, 34 from Falmouth, and six from Lostwithiel. It is situated nearly in the centre of the county, between two hills, and consists chiefly of one long street, running east and west. This town must at one time have been of much more consequence, and greater magnitude, than at the present day; for it formerly contained a priory, cathedral, and thirteen churches or free chapels, of which the foundations and sites of some are still to be distinguished. The present church is the largest in the county, and is handsome within, but externally irregularly built. The living is a vicarage, in the gift of Lord de Dunstanville; and the Rev. J. Wallis is the present incumbent. Here are three chapels for dissenters, and a free grammar school, founded and endowed by Queen Elizabeth. Bodmin must have been very early constituted a borough; for in an ancient record it appears that the burgesses were fined 100 shillings, in the 26th year of Henry II, for setting up a guild without a warrant. The corporate body, as created by the last charter, granted in 1798, consists of a mayor, 12 aldermen, 24 capital burgesses and a recorder. The right of returning members to Parliament is vested in the corporation; the mayor is the returning officer; and the present representatives are, David Gilbert, Esq.

    St MINVER LOWLANDS PARISH COUNCIL MINUTES OF THE FULL COUNCIL MEETING HELD IN THE COUNCIL CHAMBER, ROCK METHODIST CHURCH st ON MONDAY, 1 FEBRUARY 2016 @ 7.30pm Present: Cllr. Mrs Mould (Chairman) Cllr. Blewett Cllr. Crowdy Cllr. Miss Gilbert Cllr. Gisbourne Cllr. Mrs Morgan Cllr. Rathbone Cllr. Richards Cllr. Mrs Webb County Cllr. Penny Mrs Thompson (Clerk) Minute AGENDA ITEMS Action Chairman’s Welcome and Public Forum – the Chairman welcomed those present, with a particularly warm welcome to the members of the public. Mr Mike Parry referred to the Trerair application. He referred to his letter to CC and pointed out that it is contrary to the St Minver Neighbourhood Development Plan (NDP). The site had previously been refused planning permission. He queried what is meant by the ‘reserved matters’ referred to in the application. Mr Lee Durrant, Trerair applicant, explained that this is just normal terminology. Mr Keith Snelling also referred to the NDP in relation to Trerair. He said the final public consultation will end at the end of this week and then it will go to the independent inspector by the end of the month. Consultees had been adamant that the development boundaries should be maintained and this site was outside. He pointed out that public consultation had been ongoing for four years. Mr Varcoe said if permission was granted it would seriously undermine the NDP. He referred to the Cornwall Local Plan, which had been referred back to CC because there was insufficient housing in the original plan. He said permission had been granted for enough new properties to last for the next five years.

  • The Dagg People in St. Kew Jim Dagg, February 2015
    The Dagg People in St. Kew Jim Dagg, February 2015 St Kew parish, one of over 220 in the Duchy of Cornwall, is north of the town of Wadebridge, north of the Camel Valley and inland from Port Isaac in North Cornwall. About 1100 people are permanent residents of the 6500-acre parish and live in hamlets and farms connected by hedge-lined lanes. The lanes are narrow and twisting. Drive with care. Forty miles an hour can lead to some scary encounters with wildlife, other drivers or walkers. Both cyclists and eight and half foot-wide tractors are on a stop-for-nothing mission. The ancient hamlets are called Chapel Amble, Trewethern, Trewethen, St Kew Highway, St Kew, Trelill, Trequite, Tregellist, and Pendoggett. The origins of St Kew parish, lurk in the mists of time. Ancient beginnings have emerged in the work of many historians, archaeologists and people researching family records that are constantly being discovered. Although I am not one of those lucky types, I have developed a spectator interest during many visits to Cornwall, starting back in the early 1970s. Today, the parish is all quiet farmland. There once was a railway, but the station at St Kew Highway closed in the 1960s. Now a main road runs north to south, the A39, optimistically named the Atlantic Highway, and the B3314 road clips the north-west corner through Pendoggett, but all roads by-pass the church town of St Kew. 1 The heart of St Kew parish is St Kew hamlet and the parish church, St James the Great.
