H. RYVES, H. M. QUICK and A. G. PARSONS (kindly assisted by Dr. R. H. BLAIR) Forty-eight members joined the Society in 1955. We regret the loss by death of twelve members; twelve have resigned, and the resignation of thirty-two more has been assumed by reason of the non-payment of the subscription for three years. This makes a total of 602 ordinary members. The Twenty-fourth Annual General Meeting was held in the Museum, Truro, on April 16th, when Mr. George Edwards, on behalf of the R.S.P.B., showed films of the Avocet and of other birds which might possibly breed in Britain. The Autumn Meeting was held on December 4th, in Truro; and Dr. Coombs showed his films of Birds in Spain. One Executive Committee Meeting was held during the year. Our thanks are due to Mr. Wills for kindly auditing the accounts. Field Days were held on March 12th, at Marazion, and May 15th, near Ladock; that arranged for February 26th was largely offset by the heavy snowfall making access to Tamar Lake very difficult. (Field Days for 1956 will be found on page 4 of this Report). The loss of Major A. A. Dorrien Smith, of Tresco Abbey, Isles of Scilly, will be much felt by the Society. He was keenly interested in bird life and took steps to ensure the protection of breeding birds of the Islands. He had been a member of the Society since its foundation. The Society applied to the County Council for an Order to prohibit Sunday Shooting in Cornwall. The application was con­ curred in by the County Council and forwarded to the Home Office; the Home Secretary agreed to make such an Order, but applicable only to Schedule III birds (i.e., the Sporting birds). Birds in Schedule II (the " Black List ") may still be shot on Sundays. Interesting bird visitors during the year included a Greenland Redpoll, Richard's Pipit, Little Egrets in unusual numbers, Barnacle Goose, Ferruginous Duck, two American Pectoral Sandpipers, Bona­ parte's Sandpiper, Greater Yellowshank and Iceland Gull. 3 Members are asked to send their records for the year before January 15th following, to the Rev. J. E. Beckerlegge, Crowan Vicarage, Nr. Camborne. Members are begged to send their subscriptions to the Treasurer, and not to any of the Secretaries. As already announced, Mr. A. G. Parsons has resigned the post of Joint Honorary Secretary owing to pressure of work. Please send all correspondence to the new Joint Honorary Secretary:— The Rev. J. E. Bcckerlegge, The Vicarage, Crowan, Nr. Camborne. Mr. Parsons will still answer queries about telescopes and glasses. ***** FIELD DAYS, 1956 These will be held as under: May 12th. Lamorran Woods, St. Michael Penkevil, Nr. Truro. Meeting at 2.30 p.m. at the point where the road to Ruan crosses Tregothnan Drive, near Tregonian Farm. " Richards' Bus " for St. Michael Penkivel leaves Truro Quay about 1.10 p.m. August 25th. Devoran, Nr. Truro. Meeting at 2.30 p.m. at the Old Foundry by the river. There will be little walking, as the intention is to allow the tide to gradually drive the Waders up past a vantage point. If time and tide permit, an inspection of the river lower down at Point may be of interest. September 8th. Day Run in the new " Scillonian," leaving Penzance about 9.30 a.m. Cost about 30/- per person. An attempt to see Skuas, Shearwaters, Storm Petrels, and Phalaropes at sea will be made. There would be time to see some Waders in the Scilly Isles also. 4 THE WEATHER OF 1955 By B. H. RYVES The outstanding features of the weather of 1955 were (1) the very unpleasant conditions that prevailed almost throughout the month of May, which was not only vexatious to man but which made life difficult for breeding birds; (2) the wonderful warm and dry summer, which was vouchsafed to us throughout July and August and—to a lesser degree—in September. January. On the whole a really cold month as well as a wet one. There were hard frosts with a little snow on the 4th. February. An " Ice Age " gripped the land for the major part of the month. The frosts were severe and there were many falls of snow. March. The cold of February continued (to a lesser degree), caused largely by biting Easterly winds. April. Following the cold of the previous months, it was pleasant to experience days of sunshine and a long period of drought; which latter was excessive for farms and gardens. May. Except for a few closing days, the month was a most unpleasant and difficult one both for man and bird. There was almost ceaseless Easterly winds, deluges of rain, frosts and, on the 18th, snow all over the country though we luckily escaped. Birds had a hard time. June. Very variable. There were some pleasant, warm days, but on the 11th and 12th a severe gale blew from the South with torrential rains. On the whole it was a wet and cheerless month. Birds had many tribulations. July. Almost throughout, a great drought and heatwave pre­ vailed. A joy to mankind, but a tussle for crops in the garden. August. The weather of July continued all through the month— heat and drought. I can never remember the like for so long a period of time. September. Though rather cooler, September emulated the wonderful conditions of July and August. October. Variable. Almost a heatwave on the 11th. On the 6th there had been a gale. The latter part of the month was definitely cold and there were some heavy rainfalls. November. On the whole, a mild month with only a few cold days around mid-month. Normal rainfall and no frosts. December. A mild month with normal rainfalls and some light gales. No frosts. 5 LIST OF CONTRIBUTORS L.P.A. L. P. Alder (non-member). G.A. Dr. G. Allsop. C.H.B. Capt. C. H. Bailhache. J.E.B. The Rev.

From members' records received over a number of years it is now realised that certain of our less common birds occur regularly each year, if only in small numbers. (List given below). Therefore records of their normal appearance will no longer be printed in the Report, though notes of unusual numbers, dates, or localities will still be published. Please continue to send records of these birds, so that fluctuations in status and locality may be noted. White Wagtail. Bar-tailed Godwit. Chiffchaffs (wintering). Black-tailed Godwit. Garganey. Knot. Pochard. Curlew Sandpiper. Tufted. Ruff. Goldeneye. Green Sandpiper. Common Scoter. Greenshank.

  • Responsibilities for Flood Risk Management
    Appendix A - Responsibilities for Flood Risk Management The Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) has overall responsibility for flood risk management in England. Their aim is to reduce flood risk by: • discouraging inappropriate development in areas at risk of flooding. • encouraging adequate and cost effective flood warning systems. • encouraging adequate technically, environmentally and economically sound and sustainable flood defence measures. The Government’s Foresight Programme has recently produced a report called Future Flooding, which warns that the risk of flooding will increase between 2 and 20 times over the next 75 years. The report produced by the Office of Science and Technology has a long-term vision for the future (2030 – 2100), helping to make sure that effective strategies are developed now. Sir David King, the Chief Scientific Advisor to the Government concluded: “continuing with existing policies is not an option – in virtually every scenario considered (for climate change), the risks grow to unacceptable levels. Secondly, the risk needs to be tackled across a broad front. However, this is unlikely to be sufficient in itself. Hard choices need to be taken – we must either invest in more sustainable approaches to flood and coastal management or learn to live with increasing flooding”. In response to this, Defra is leading the development of a new strategy for flood and coastal erosion for the next 20 years. This programme, called “Making Space for Water” will help define and set the agenda for the Government’s future strategic approach to flood risk. Within this strategy there will be an overall approach to the assessing options through a strong and continuing commitment to CFMPs and SMPs within a broader planning framework which will include River Basin Management Plans prepared under the Water Framework Directive and Integrated Coastal Zone Management.

  • Ludgvan Neighbourhood Plan Local Evidence Report January 2018
    Ludgvan Neighbourhood Plan Local Evidence Report January 2018 Introduction Neighbourhood planning policy and proposals need to be based on a proper understanding of the place they relate to, if it they are to be relevant, realistic and to address local issues effectively. It is important that our Neighbourhood Plan is based on robust information and analysis of the local area; this is called the evidence base. Unless policy is based on firm evidence and proper community engagement, then it is more likely to reflect the assumptions and prejudices of those writing it than to reflect the needs of the wider area and community. This Local Evidence Report presents a topic by topic picture in facts, local opinions and aspirations of what the Parish of Ludgvan is all about in 2017/18, so as to provide the ‘evidence’ on which to base the development of the Ludgvan Neighbourhood Plan. We have used a variety of authoritative sources and recent survey material to put this Report together. To keep it relevant and accessible we have summarised information. Should the reader want more information or background we have provided links wherever possible to the source document. Inevitably we have not found all the information we sought. You are invited to contribute additional material to our evidence base. If you have any additional recent and relevant facts or can provide authoritative opinion about land use-related matters in Ludgvan Parish, please get in touch with the Parish Clerk at: [email protected] At the end of each topic section is a Key Messages box that includes messages discerned from evidence gathered and presented either in this report or the relevant Ludgvan Background Paper prepared by the NP Steering Group and available to view on the Ludgvan NP website1.

  • Frequently Asked Questions About Visiting the Isles of Scilly in Relation to COVID19 What Should I Think About When Visiting
    Frequently Asked Questions about Visiting the Isles of Scilly in relation to COVID19 We are delighted to welcome you to the Isles of Scilly and hope you have a lovely holiday experiencing our glorious beaches, clear blue water and excellent hospitality. We are a small island community, with limited infrastructure and health care services. Excellent as they are, there are only a few of us running them, so we need to make sure we protect our key workers for the benefit of both you and our local community. We understand that you are keen to have a holiday but please remember your individual responsibility to keep yourself and others safe whilst staying with us on Scilly. Please find some information below from the Council of the Isles of Scilly and our public health colleagues in response to frequently asked questions. If you have any queries please email [email protected] What should I think about when visiting the islands? Please consider the following; Travel by private transport on your mainland leg of the journey avoiding public transport. If you need to be evacuated, you will not be able to return home on public transport from Penzance. Travel accommodation providers will be asking you to carry your own luggage, so you might want to consider bringing more smaller items of luggage rather than one big heavy suitcase. Bring a face covering/mask - these are now mandatory on Skybus, Scillonian III and Penzance Helicopters, shuttle buses & boats. Bring some hand sanitiser, there will also be some hand sanitiser stations across the islands.
