Things to Consider When Visiting Treffry Viaduct As with All Off – Site Visits, a Preliminary Visit from the Class Teacher / Leader Is Highly Recommended
Things to consider when visiting Treffry Viaduct As with all off – site visits, a preliminary visit from the class teacher / leader is highly recommended. Following on from our workshops here, we have detailed below things we hope you will find useful when planning your visit. Getting to Treffry Viaduct Treffry viaduct is half a mile South East of Luxulyan and approximately 4 miles North of St. Austell. To get a complete sense of the Luxulyan valley and the industrial features there we advise starting the exploration at Pont’s Mill where there is a drop off carpark and walking through the Valley until you reach the viaduct. This will be the end of your journey and is near another small car park outlined below- If you don’t have time to walk up from Ponts Mill or have complications with transport, then you can always start at the viaduct and explore from here. Our experience - the main challenges The Luxulyan Valley and the Treffry Viaduct is a fascinating site that will really make children think about the challenges Joseph Treffry had to overcome in order to achieve his dream at this particular time in history. It is littered with industrial archaeology which will help the children refer back to the game they played on the first day of this project. The Valley, as a natural space is beautiful all year round with plenty of opportunities for the identification and recording of natural species. The main challenges we found when planning a visit were lack of toilets and access for children with mobility issues. -

SMP2 6 Final Report
6 ACTION PLAN 6.1 Coastal risk management activities The Action Plan for the Cornwall & Isles of Scilly Shoreline Management Plan review provides the basis for taking forward the intent of management which is discussed and developed through Chapter 4 - and summarised through the preferred policy choices set out in Chapter 5. The SMP guidance states that the purpose of the Action Plan is to summarise the actions that are required before the next review of the SMP however in reality the Action Plan is looking much further into the future in order to provide guidance on how the overall management intent for 100 years may be taken forward. For Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly SMP the Action Plan is a critical element, because there are various conditional policies for later epochs which need to be more firmly established in the future based on monitoring and investigation. The Action Plan can set the framework for an on-going shoreline management process in the coming years, with SMP3 in 5 to 10 years time as the next important milestone. This chapter therefore attempts to capture all intended actions necessary, on a policy unit by policy unit basis, to deliver the objectives at a local level. It should also help to prioritise FCRM medium and long-term planning budget lines. A number of the actions are representative of on-going commitments across the SMP area (for example to South West Regional Coastal Monitoring Programme). There are also actions that are representative of wide-scale intent of management, for example in relation to gaining a better understanding of the roles played by the various harbours and breakwaters located around the coast in terms of coast protection and sea defence. -

Luxulyan Neighbourhood Development Plan 2018 - 2030
Luxulyan Neighbourhood Development Plan 2018 - 2030 Produced by the Luxulyan Neighbourhood Development Plan Steering Group 9th May 2019 Page | 1 CONTENTS 1.0 Introduction 2.0 The Neighbourhood Development Plan Process 3.0 Guidelines 4.0 Description of the Parish 5.0 View of the Community 6.0 Vision and aims 7.0 Housing Requirement 8.0 Policies 9.0 Local Landscape Character 10.0 Evidence Documents and Background Reference Page | 2 1. Introduction 1.1 Neighbourhood planning gives the Luxulyan community direct power to develop a shared vision and to shape the development and growth of the local area. The community are able to choose if, and where they want new homes to be built, have their say on what those new homes should look like and what infrastructure should be provided, and directly influence the grant of planning permission for the new homes they want to see go ahead. 1.2 A Neighbourhood Development Plan concerns the future development in the Parish. It is also about the use of land and the environment. The plan must take into account what local people want and can only be approved once a local referendum has taken place. The neighbourhood development plan will form part of the statutory Development Plan for the Parish and therefore planning decisions need to be made in accordance with the neighbourhood development plan. 1.3 The creation of a Neighbourhood Development Plan is part of the government’s approach to planning, as contained in the Localism Act 2011. 1.4 Luxulyan Parish Council applied to Cornwall Council, on 4th June 2016, to designate the Parish as a “Neighbourhood Area.” Cornwall Council formally designated the Neighbourhood Area on 4th August 2016 in accordance with the Neighbourhood Planning (General) Regulations 2012. -
Environmentol Protection Report WATER QUALITY MONITORING
5k Environmentol Protection Report WATER QUALITY MONITORING LOCATIONS 1992 April 1992 FW P/9 2/ 0 0 1 Author: B Steele Technicol Assistant, Freshwater NRA National Rivers Authority CVM Davies South West Region Environmental Protection Manager HATER QUALITY MONITORING LOCATIONS 1992 _ . - - TECHNICAL REPORT NO: FWP/92/001 The maps in this report indicate the monitoring locations for the 1992 Regional Water Quality Monitoring Programme which is described separately. 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. -

SOUTH WESTERN ELECTRICITY BOARD AREA Regional and Local Electricity Systems in Britain
ABSTRACT Public electricity supplies began in Britain during the 1880s. By 1900 most urban places with over 50,000 population had some form of service, at least in the town centre.
