Born in Plymouth and lived there for the majority of my working life as a sales manager covering the South West. Since our children were small, as a family we frequently holidayed in Cornwall and eventually bought holiday accommodation here, we finally went back to family roots in the Looe area and moved to Millendreath 8 years ago and are now enjoying life in the community. My wife and I are keen gardeners, enjoy walking, bird watching, kayaking and sailing when the opportuni- ty arises. Retiring in 2011 I have taken a keen interest in local matters and have attended most of the Parish Council Meet- ings; I am also a mem- ber of the Millendreath Owners Association and this year I have becoming the Chair- man of Millendreath in Bloom. When a vacancy came up for the Parish Coun- cil, I was fortunate to be co-opted to serve until the next election as I did feel there was a need for some local representation for Mil- lendreath. I hope during my time as Councillor I can help to support the Parish in future challenges. 6 Diary Dates 2nd September, Yoga Returns, contact Maria 01503 263505 9th September, Mother & Toddler restarts, 9.30 - 11.30am.

This challenge was taken up at an open invitation meeting attended by a few residents and owners and the voluntary Millendreath in Bloom Committee was formed. Not knowing what we were letting ourselves in for it soon became apparent what was needed and a wealth of skills surfaced within the volunteers enabling the project to move forward. Thanks to funding from our local Parish Council and local businesses who supported our efforts from the very beginning, enabling purchase of plants etc. As everyone should now be aware there is a major multi million development happen- ing in the valley and although independent of this opera- tion, we are grateful for the support Espalier have given our group. This has had a Jessica Tamblyn-Hayward Qualified Pet Groomer Bray Farm Bindown Nomansland, Near Looe 01503 240841 or 07834 473835 8 beneficial advantage for us as MiB has been able to play a very small part regards the appearance of where we live and work. Hopefully the hard work has paid off and from positive comments received from visitors and locals we think there has been a degree of success. There have been 2 separate official judging days in Millendreath and fingers crossed, the invite received for the Committee to attend the Cornwall in Bloom presentation night at the Eden Project on 17 October will produce results. A portfolio has been produced covering our progress which will go online shortly. We are an independent voluntary community based project meeting regularly, details will be posted on your community notice board. Any one interested in joining our group or just popping into a meeting will be most welcome. It is hoped we can continue on to 2014 with your help. An hour to suit now and then can make all the difference to where your environment and from personal experience it has been rewarding to meet our neighbours and share your views.

  • Deviock Parish Plan November 2004
    DEVIOCK PARISH PLAN June 2007 This plan will be kept updated on the Parish website www.deviockparish.org.uk DESCRIPTION OF THE PARISH Deviock is a relatively new Parish having been formed in 1996 (most Local Government Parishes were formed from Vestry Councils in 1894). Deviock Parish was constructed from the coastal zone of the old St. Germans Parish to which were added small parts of St. Martins and Morval Parishes to enable each of the settlements to be within a single Parish. Before the change the community of Hessenford was in three Parishes and the community of Seaton in two. Map of Deviock Parish Deviock Parish 2 Currently the Deviock Parish has three villages, Downderry, Seaton and Hessenford, and two hamlets, Narkurs and St. Winnols, with isolated dwellings (mostly farmsteads) in the adjoining lands. The name Deviock was chosen after the small group of houses and the 19th century school situated almost at the centre of the Parish and yet not part of any of the population centres. The name probably follows the family name Devyock held by former occupants of Trerieve. Historically the majority of the small population lived in the farms and villages away from the coast so that Hessenford and Narkurs were the major settlements. There is a strong probability that this distribution was related to the insecurity of living close to the sea where attack by marauders was possible. (There is direct evidence that Looe was periodically subject to attack). Downderry is not recorded until noted in the 1699 maps of Joel Gascoyne, while Seaton, Hessenford and most of the farms are noted much earlier: Hessenford 1286; Seaton 1302 (ref.

  • THE TITHINGS of CORNWALL by P. A. S. Pool, M.A., F.S.A
    275 THE TITHINGS OF CORNWALL by P. A. S. Pool, M.A., F.S.A. Tithing, Parish and Manor The object of this study is to investigate the organisation of medieval local government within the nine ancient hundreds of Cornwall, by listing and identifying their tithings, which were the smallest units of local admini• stration until superseded by the adoption of the equivalent ecclesiastical unit, the parish, for civil purposes. The County of Cornwall largely coincided in area with the Archdeaconry of Cornwall (one of the four archdeaconries of the Diocese of Exeter). Within its area the Hundreds of Penwith, Kerrier, Powder, Pyder and West largely coincided with the Deaneries of the same names. Only in north-east Cornwall did hundred and deanery boundaries differ markedly; the Hundreds of Stratton, Lesnewth and Trigg (themselves sub-divisions of the Domesday Hundred of Stratton) were divided between only two deaneries, Trigg Major and Trigg Minor, the boundary between which passed through the Hundred of Lesnewth; and the northernmost part of the Hundred of East was in the deanery of Trigg Major. But this close correlation between county and archdeaconry, and between the majority of the hundreds and deaneries, did not occur at the lowest level, between the tithings and parishes. There were many more tithings than parishes; 308 tithings were recorded in 1284,1 whereas the number of parishes (always difficult to reckon exactly because of the doubtful status of some chapelries) was about 200; Table 1 shows that the number of tithings was greater in each hundred except East, and often substantially so: TABLE 1 Hundred Tithings, 1284 Parishes Penwith 27 24 Kerrier 31 25 Pyder 40 21 Powder 53 34 Trigg 36 12 Lesnewth 22 17 Stratton 23 11 J East 35 O West 41 19 308 198 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I record my profound thanks to those colleagues who have placed their know• ledge and advice generously at my disposal for this work, namely Mr.

    St Martin-By-Looe News Published and funded by St Martin-By-Looe Parish Council Sept/Oct 2009 Parish Council Update B3253 Speed Limit Despite the best efforts of both the Parish Council and the local community, Cornwall Council will not reconsider lowering the speed limit from 50mph to 40mph as requested. A representative from the Highways Department did attend a meeting with members of the Parish Council and agreed to carry out some improvements to try to encourage drivers to slow down; however, once again, we were told that funding is currently not available. It would appear that the substantial savings claimed by the new Unitary Authority are simply being made by spending no money! Nearly everything the Parish Council has asked for has been met with the same reply ‘NO FUNDS AVAILABLE’. Planning Applications The following have come before the Parish Council for consideration: Pethick Farm, No Mans Land, replacement of existing agricultural building. Island View, St Martins, construction of a porch. Bay View Farm, variation of condition 1 (occupation of caravan/siting of tents on site between 31st October and 1st March). Cliff Valley Farm, St Martins, certificate of lawful- ness for the continuation of occupancy of dwelling without compliance with agricultural occupancy condition number 2. Longcoe Farm, St Martins, construction of farm access track. Tregoad Park, St Martins, construction of pool hall with conservatory to existing swimming pool. Ellie’s Haven As you all are probably aware, the Ellie’s Haven project will not now be constructed at No Mans Land, The Parish Council wish the team every success with finding a new site where they will be welcomed by the local community.

  • Cornwall, General History
    Magna Britannia: Volume 3, Cornwall Daniel Lysons & Samuel Lysons Originally published by T Cadell and W Davies, London, 1814 CORNWALL - GENERAL HISTORY. ETYMOLOGY. RICHARD of Cirencester says that this county took its name from the Carnabii; it is more probable on the contrary, that those people took their name from that of the country they inhabited: the truth seems to be that the country was called by its antient inhabitants, Kernou, or as the Welch write it, Kerniw, or the Horn, from its projecting promontories; that it was latinized to Carnubia or Cornubia; that when the Saxons gave the name of Wealas to the Britons, they distinguished those who had retired into Kernou or Cornubia, by the name of Corn- wealas; and their country was thus called Cornuwall or Cornwall: that is, Cornish-Wales. (fn. n1) Antient Inhabitants, Language, and Government. From the map of Roman Britain, it appears that the northern part of this county, as far as the river Camel and Padstow haven, was antiently inhabited by a British tribe called the Cimbri; the eastern part, as far as Falmouth haven, by the Danmonii, and the remainder by the Carnabii. Before the coming of the Romans, the Danmonii had subdued the two other tribes and usurped their dominions (fn. n2). When the Romans divided Britain into six provinces, Cornwall formed part of Britannia Prima; after their departure it became one of the last retreats of the Britons, who seem to have been sometimes under the dominion of the kings of Wales, and sometimes to have been governed by independent sovereigns of their own, either by the names of dukes or kings (fn.
