This lead to severe sea conditions which caused considerable damage around the entire coast of Cornwall. Multi-agency Emergency Management procedures were being implemented almost continuously throughout this period with recovery work still ongoing. In many instances, particularly in relation to the highway infrastructure and the South West Coast Path, the storm damage compounded damage inflicted from the previous four years. As well as the obvious effects to Cornwall infrastructure and environment, the storms had social and economic impact. This report, the first produced in Cornwall of this type, looks to set out all of these impacts and the interdependencies as well as identifying measures that mitigate the impacts now and in the future. Strategic Overview Cornwall is particularly vulnerable to weather impacts on its transport and distribution network due to its peripheral and linear geography and its consequent reliance on a limited number of highway, air and rail routes. Cornwall was impacted by twelve major storm events between December 2013 and March 2014. Huge damage was caused to coastal infrastructure in numerous locations and it is estimated that £4.4m of interim and £17.0m of permanent capital repairs were required as a result of damage. An estimated £8.2m was lost from visitors not coming to Cornwall in January/February 2014 alone. First Great Western reported a loss of two thirds of passengers into Cornwall and Devon while the Dawlish line was closed, despite alternative transport being provided. These impacts and consequences are highlighted in this report but the summary for Cornwall can be expressed as follows: • Extreme rainfall causes delay and failure of highway infrastructure; exacerbated by potholes and cumulative repair backlogs. • Coastal storm surges and sea level rise resulted in the suspension of strategic transport links into Cornwall and critical coastal infrastructure. • Severe storms and high winds mean that the Tamar Bridge is closed to high sided vehicles relatively regularly, and sometimes to all traffic. There are limited alternative routes. • Minor roads are affected by falling trees and power cables. These are key distribution routes for local business and bus routes for those who don’t run a car. • Rough weather will also impact on air services, particularly connectivity with the Isles of Scilly, where supply vulnerability is an even more immediate issue. Funding support from Government and planning for extreme weather in Cornwall has reaped dividends in the past: • Defences for St.Ives and Truro centres following 1980s and 1990s flooding • St.Blazey and Par showed improved flood resilience following recent improvements to defences and drainage. • Network Rail delivered an exceptional and quick rebuild of Dawlish • Multi agency reaction in Cornwall was effective. Impact of Severe Weather in Cornwall – Winter 2013/2014 Report Date: October 2014 V1.2 DRAFT 4 However, there are some outstanding strategic issues: • Long term resilience and feasibility of the rail network into Cornwall • Reduction in the bureaucracy in seeking military assistance to undertake condition surveys of coastal assets • The Flood Defence Grant and Aid benefits populous areas but not those like Cornwall where infrastructure is limited and put under additional strain by visitor numbers. Cornwall would like to see this addressed. • Bid documentation funding for grant funding is too simplistic & does not take into account the scale of the infrastructure that requires reparatory works. Cornwall – together with other partners in the peninsula – want to be able to establish an economic impact methodology for prolonged and severe weather. Many of the consequences of the impacts highlighted in this report have had an economic consequence. This includes; delay, damage, impact on supply chains and loss of earnings. Cornish communities battled through the storms to keep local economies and public and voluntary services going; but these impact issues need to be captured before they are forgotten. As a guide, previous estimates made by Cornwall Council of the storms in November and December 2012 indicated that the Cornish economy lost at least £60m. A summary of our strategic asks • Enabling resources to support connectivity away from the main Highway infrastructure • Support to clear and maintain the drainage infrastructure, which will also aid Cornwall’s growth ambitions. • That capital project partnerships (not just public money) recognise in many instances the vulnerability and importance of the built environment for Cornish communities. • The need for a bespoke Cornwall Strategic Flood Deal Package to enable long term strategic programming against the likelihood of extreme weather, rather than a year on year bidding process, delivering efficiencies and economies of scale. This would also deliver more certainty for communities with a strategic rather than a project approach. This links to confidence to deliver the Growth Deal agreed with Government. The growth agenda can also help deliver a more accessible public realm and coastal stretches. Resilience will deliver growth and growth will deliver resilience. A summary of our local asks • Strategic energy supply policy to ensure that Cornwall does not face blackouts at a time of severe weather • Recognition of the importance, time and resources to develop economic impact methodology after these events and capture intelligence during them to support resource allocation. Physical Impacts All of Cornwall was impacted in some way during the severe weather. This included flooding of property and land at Wadebridge Perranporth, Looe, St Ives, Bude, Portreath, Penzance, Fowey, Mevagissey and Penryn. Coastal impacts include damage to sea defences, beaches, piers, breakwaters, harbours and cliffs. The coast and cycle network paths damaged across Cornwall. Damage to the infrastructure was widespread full details are set out in the report. Social Impacts Throughout the winter there were a number of evacuations. In February residents in Porthtowan and Bude were advised to leave their houses because of predicted tidal surges and evacuation centres were opened. In Kingsand on 4 February residents were evacuated at the height of the storm as were residents in Portholland and Penzance on 14 February. Impact of Severe Weather in Cornwall – Winter 2013/2014 Report Date: October 2014 V1.2 DRAFT 5 Financial Impacts Coastal assets: Most of the damage occurred at times of Spring Tides. In the periods between Spring Tides, particularly during mid-January and mid-February significant interim repair works were undertaken to protect life and property and to minimise further damage.

  • Representations 501-550
    501 Hi Cornwall Council I trust you can accept and pass these brief and hasty comments to the Local Plan Team. This is a lengthy document and I only learned of it very recently as it appears not to have been given widespread publicity as to it's availability and the ways to submit comments. It appears generic and does not have a strong 'local' or Cornish perspective and although it contains high aims on sustainability, green policies, employment and housing it is short on ways to achieve these things in a compatible way. HOUSING The numbers for housing need seem high and not related to economic activity eg over the past 40 years the number of houses have doubled in Cornwall without an improvement in the overall economy. To use housing as an economic 'driver' is a false premise. Housing should, I agree, be placed on brownfield and infill sites and only as a last resort should greenfield sites be used - this, of course, should apply to all development. A lower figure of housing requirements, ie around 30k should be the preferred one. House build should reflect the local and social housing need and not include more than 20% for purely the speculative and second house market. I understand that Councillors have supported a stricter planning regime and change of use provision for second and holiday houses - this should be vigorously pursued and made Council policy. As Cornwall has one of the highest second house concentration in the UK it needs to be treated as such and special measure put in place to contain this spread.

The file names are the PRO piece number code (without punctuation). About UK Census Returns About Free Census (FreeCEN) was started early in 2000 with a pilot project for the 1891 census returns for Devon. The aim of Free Census is to transcribe all the UK 19th century census returns. It is part of FreeUKGEN and is a sister project to FreeBMD and FreeREG. The intention is that all three of the UK primary sources for the family historian will be online and “free to view.” Six months after the Devon project started, the Cornwall 1891 commenced. Most English and Welsh counties are now covered for the 1891, with the Scottish projects concentrating on the 1841. There are several English 1861 projects, using commercially produced discs and two English 1841 projects, including Cornwall.
