Michelle Scully explained that she wanted to speak about the problems her friend Karin Howey, of Riverside Chalet was having as Simon Wright, owner of the Harbour Development Company was trying to evict her.

These aeolian deposits are most strongly developed on the northern coast, where large areas are permanently cut off from the operations of the plough. The most considerable of these fronts St. Ives Bay, forming the Lelant, Phillack, Upton, Gwithian and Godrevy towans. Another extensive tract constitutes the Perran Sands, and isolated patches continue as far as Newquay. Further to the north the solid rocks forming the promontory of Trevose Head are severed by the towans extending from Constantine Bay to Perleze Bay, and opposite Padstow a tract of sandhills extends from St. Michael to the Dunbar. Smaller patches occur at Gunwalloe and along the southern coast.read more » 190724 | National Explosives Factory protected on advice from Historic England      A National Explosives Factory in west Cornwall has been given protected status by the Department of Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, on the advice of Historic ... read more » Friends of the TowansSubmitted by via Friends of ... on Wed, 01/05/2019 - 00:00.
