Lugdvan Parish Council submitted a number of proposals which are summarised as follows; to unite all of Nancledra village within a single parish and to accept Towednack Parish Council’s (205) proposal to update Ludgvan’s northern boundary accordingly; include Towednack Parish as a ward of Lugdvan Parish; move its boundary with St Erth Parish (203) from the A30 to the railway line to unite the communities of Canon’s Town and Rose-an-Grouse within one parish. Penzance Town Council (106) proposed to move its parish boundary to include Longrock which is currently in Ludgvan Parish. 2. Ludgvan Parish Council indicated that it wished to see no change regarding its boundary with Marazion Parish (103) and Penzance Parish, particularly as it relates to Longrock. Ludgvan Parish Council was open to the Gulval ward of Penzance Parish becoming a ward of Ludgvan Parish, subject to further public consultation. 3. Cornwall Council had received one submission directly from residents which sought the Gulval ward of Penzance Parish, excluding Eastern Green, to become a ward of Lugdvan Parish as they had the general feeling that they would better fit with Ludgvan Parish but confirmed that they do not feel part of Penzance Town. 4. At its meeting on the 14th October 2019 the panel agreed to defer the proposals from Ludgvan Parish. The panel did, however, decide in relation to Nancledra that the village should be united within the parish of Towednack. 5. In relation to the boundary with St Erth, the panel agreed that sufficient evidence had been provided to unite the communities of Canon’s Town and Rose-an-Grouse as better reflecting the identities and interests of the communities in that area. It was proposed by Councillor M Thomas, seconded by Councillor Eddy and RESOLVED TO RECOMMEND TO COUNCIL that the area edged in red on the map on page 32 of appendix 3 to the report be transferred from St Erth Parish to Ludgvan Parish. 6. Marazion Town Council had proposed to extend its boundary to the west to include the Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) currently in Ludgvan Parish as it considered that the area has stronger associations with Marazion Parish. Penzance Town Council had proposed to move its parish 2 Information Classification: PUBLIC Council Electoral Review Panel Combined draft recommendations boundary east to include Longrock which it considered to have strong economic links with Penzance Town. 7. Ludgvan Parish Council had stated that it wished to see no change regarding its boundary with Marazion Parish and Penzance Parish, particularly as it related to Longrock. 8. The local Member was of the view that although Longrock was part of Ludgvan Parish, it was also part of the Penzance urban area and incorporating this into Penzance would simply be recognising how things had changed in recent years. 9. In relation to the submission from Marazion Town Council, no evidence had been submitted to the panel that a transfer of the SSSI site would secure more effective and convenient community governance of that area. With regard to the submission from Penzance Town Council, some evidence had been submitted to the panel that the residents within Longrock considered that the proposed change would not better reflect the identities or interest of the community in that area or secure more effective and convenient community governance of that area. It was proposed by Councillor Cole, seconded by Councillor Fitter and RESOLVED TO RECOMMEND TO COUNCIL that no change be made to the parish boundary between Ludgvan Parish and Marazion Parish in relation to the SSSI site. It was proposed by Councillor McKenna, seconded by Councillor Cole and RESOLVED TO RECOMMEND TO COUNCIL that no change be made to the parish boundary between Penzance Parish and Ludgvan Parish in relation to Longrock and the Eastern Green area. 102 Madron 10. Madron Parish Council proposed that Gulval village and its surrounding area as shown edged red on the map on page 34 of appendix 3 to the report be transferred from Penzance Parish (106) to Madron Parish, and that the number of councillors be increased in consequence. 11. The panel carefully considered the various submissions made with regard to this proposal including from the local Members, the Gulval Village Community Association together with the consultation it had carried out, Madron Parish Council and Penzance Town Council. 3 Information Classification: PUBLIC Council Electoral Review Panel Combined draft recommendations It was proposed by Councillor Kenny, seconded by Councillor Cole and RESOLVED TO RECOMMEND TO COUNCIL that the area edged in red on the map on page 34 of appendix 3 to the report not be transferred from Penzance Parish to Madron Parish at this time as insufficient evidence had been put forward as yet that this would better reflect the identity and interests of the community in that area or secure more effective and convenient community governance within the area. Cornwall Council would welcome further evidence by the end of Stage 3 of the Review or otherwise of any such transfer, together with clarification of the precise area wished to be transferred, further detail from Madron Parish Council as to how this area would be incorporated within the parish arrangements, and information from Penzance Town Council as to the effect on Penzance Town Council of a transfer of that area. It was proposed by Councillor M Brown, seconded by Councillor Cole and RESOLVED TO RECOMMEND TO COUNCIL that the number of Councillors not be increased for Madron Parish Council. 103 Marazion 12. Marazion Town Council had proposed to extend its boundary to the west to include an SSSI site currently in Ludgvan Parish (101) as it considered that the area had stronger associations with Marazion Parish, and also to the east to include the hamlet of Plain-an-Gwarry currently in St Hilary Parish (111). 13. No evidence had been submitted to the panel that a transfer of the SSSI site would secure more effective and convenient community governance of those areas. In relation to the land to the east, the panel considered that the potential transfer of the Plain-an-Gwarry and Gwallon areas should be considered following the public consultation during Stage 3 of the Review. It was proposed by Councillor Cole, seconded by Councillor Fitter and RESOLVED TO RECOMMEND TO COUNCIL that no change be made to the parish boundary between Ludgvan Parish and Marazion Parish in relation to the SSSI site. 14. Perranuthnoe Parish (107) had proposed to extend its boundary west into Marazion Parish as shown on the map on page 37 of appendix 3 to the 4 Information Classification: PUBLIC Council Electoral Review Panel Combined draft recommendations report to follow the infrastructure and perceptions of parish affiliation and this proposal was supported by Marazion Parish. 15. The panel considered that sufficient evidence had been produced to demonstrate that this would better reflect the identities and interests of the community in that area. It was proposed by Councillor M Thomas, seconded by Councillor McKenna and RESOLVED TO RECOMMEND TO COUNCIL that the land edged in

  • Launceston Conservation Area
    Launceston Conservation Area Character Appraisal 2006 1 1.1 Introduction The town of Launceston straddles the valley of the River Kensey in a strategic location close to the River Tamar that marks the border with Devon. Although the main A30 route now by-passes the town, Launceston remains an important ‘gateway’ settlement to Cornwall. The economic base of the town is varied and it serves a considerable rural hinterland. The problems the farming community have faced in recent years and changes in the retail environment have [fig 1:Town centre skyline] affected the historic centre of Launceston in many ways, notably the loss of its traditional 1.2 Historical background market and some traditional retail outlets. An excellent and much more detailed historical Launceston is a town of great individual review can be found in the CSUS study, with character, derived from a rich and maps illustrating the historic development of the interesting history that has produced an town, (figs 3,4 & 5), so this section only offers a eclectic collection of buildings and a very brief summary. distinctive settlement pattern which is etched onto a dramatic landscape setting.

Conversely, the views from development in Launceston was at St outside looking in are equally fine, with the Stephens on the northern side of the distinctive silhouette of the castle and the Kensey.
