WEST DOWNS ROAD >

Wainhomes Residential Development – Treligga Downs Road, Delabole
Notes Relating to the Proposal
Wainhomes is proposing a residential development of approx. 65 homes, including: 2-4 bed open market dwellings; 2-3
bed affordable dwellings for local people; and a number of accessible bungalows. Originally these accessible bungalows
were proposed as age-restricted but from feedback there are some in the community that require these below the age
threshold, including residents with disabilities.
The aim of the scheme is to address local need. In order to achieve this aim we have included provision for:
- Affordable homes for local people;
- Land set aside for the Parish Council to be used for community use;
- A 20 space car park that could be used for school drop off / pick up, future residents & visitors;
- An education contribution towards the expansion of the primary school; and
- Further S106 contributions to be discussed with Cornwall Council and the Parish Council.
Two key considerations which has led the design process from the beginning has been the traffic and the primary school.
To ensure that the scheme would not have an overly detrimental effect on the village Wainhomes have been working
with our Highways Consultants; whose technical input has assured that the design of the current scheme would not have
a major impact on the existing roads. In relation to the primary school, Wainhomes have worked closely with Aspire
Academy Trust to ensure all necessary contributions would be in place for the Trust’s plans to expand Delabole Primary
School.
Notes Relating to the Public Consultation (28 th & 29 th April)
We were really pleased with the amount of involvement of residents and representatives in our event. We had 86 people
sign our register, including representatives of: the local community; the Parish Council; Cornwall Council; Cornwall Rural
Housing Association; and the Aspire Academy Trust. Due to the high number of people engaging with the event, we
were unable to keep an accurate record of attendees but anticipate that over 100 people attended over the two day
consultation.
We will be going through all the feedback provided at the consultation in the next week or two, and we look forward to
the additional feedback we receive from the forthcoming publication. Once we have collated this information Wainhomes
will provide a summary of the feedback to the Parish Council and any interested members of the community.

To extend the opportunity for public consultation, please use this form to feedback your views
concerning the proposed development by Wain Homes.
Place your completed form in a sealed envelope, addressed to Wain Homes, and post into one of the
Slate boxes at the Post Office, Lugg’s Garage or the Spar shop by 10th May.
These will be forwarded to Wain Homes on your behalf.

Thursday April 4th was the
day for Delabole to raise
money to contribute to the
county’s New Heli Appeal.
A goodly number gathered
at the Methodist Sunday
School to eat bacon baps
(well done Jo and Mel), drink
coffee and eat cake - such
a hardship! But we all did our
bit and rose to the occasion.
Thanks to all those who sold
raffle tickets, baked,
donated, did the selling and
tidied up afterwards.
Kenny Bray, a stalwart volunteer at the Air Ambulance
Centre, thanked everyone and £645.42 was raised for
the Appeal so far.

Termyn Gwari Fleghes
(children’s playtime, in Cornish)
Its May, so we should be able to be outside quite a lot we hope, as the weather gets
warmer and the evenings are lighter. This month I have included some activities to
make and do outdoors. For more ideas of things to do outside, look at
www.woodlandtrust.org/naturedetectives
Activity 1 – How to make a nature loom
When you go out for a walk, make sure you have some wool or string with you. Find
a Y shaped forked stick and tie the wool or string to it to make a loom of
crisscrossed strings. On your walk collect leaves, grasses, feathers, bark, twigs and
any other interesting or unusual things, then weave them into your twig loom – you
will end up with a stick weaving as a memory of your walk. You can do this in any
season, the things you find and collect will be different each time. You can tie on
things like snail shells and holey pebbles which you can’t weave. Just make sure
there is nothing living in anything you add to your weaving! – it will die!
How many things did you find to include in your weaving?
Activity 2 – Lets go on a scavenger hunt!
This is another activity to do anytime you are out for a walk, in the woods, on the
moors or at the beach. You can do a scavenger hunt on your own or with a group of
friends. Each person needs an eggbox and a list of six textures you are trying to
find. I have included two grids of texture words which you can copy and then cut up
and put one word in each section of your eggbox. When you find something that
matches one of the words, put it in the right section. The winner is the person with
the most found things. You can make up your own list of things to scavenge for.
Ideas for things to look for could be : white, prickly, hard, holey, as well as the ones
on the grids below….
soft smooth sticky
yellow bendy nibbled
fluffy tickly flaky
rough delicate weightless

St Teath Parish Council
Meetings – The day of the Parish Council meeting has again changed and meetings will now be held on the first Tuesday of
the month. This change has been made because every three months the Parish Council meeting was clashing with the
Cornwall Council Camelford Community Network Meetings to which we are expected to send a representative.. Meetings will
continue to be held alternatively between Delabole and St Teath and start at 7.00pm. Members of the public are welcome to
attend and address the council in the public session, or just listen to proceedings.
Notice Boards / Website – Two new notice boards have been ordered and these will replace the old board adjacent to the
Post Office in Delabole and the board on the wall of the school at St Teath. Notices will no longer be placed on the other small
boards. Information is also available on the Parish Council website www.stteathparishcouncil.gov.uk. We are aware that an
old website is still active and this is confusing. The Council have endeavoured to get this site closed down and will continue
to do so.
Email – Following problems with our email hosting company earlier in the year a new email has been set up –
clerk@stteathparishcouncil.co.uk. Please use this email to get in touch or give me a call on 01208 72789.
Seats – I am pleased to report that memorial seats have now been fitted in both villages and plaques have been ordered to
honour those who represented the parish during the First World War.
The Parish Council continue to maintain the seats throughout the parish, and a new seat has been ordered for West Lane,
Delabole.
Delabole Cemetery – Plans are being made to extend the path in the cemetery and work should be completed before the
summer to further improve the site.
Housing Development – Many residents will have attended the recent pubic consultation event organised by Wainhomes on
their proposals to build on land at Westdowns, Delabole. The Parish Council have made no comments or decisions on these
proposals and will not consider the scheme until a formal planning application is submitted and sent to us as one of the
consultees. To clarify public speculation, two gentlemen from Wainhomes spoke to Councillors prior to the January 2019
meeting but no offers were made to the Parish Council and the gentlemen attended following an invite from Cornwall Councillor
Dominic Fairman. Cllr Fairman had suggested that land is made available for a village hall, but the Parish Council have not
discussed or considered this and have not formally been approached on this matter.
Trees – The Council have arranged for pine trees in Delabole Playing Field to be removed. Over the years these trees have
grown in size and for public safety need to be felled.
Play Areas - As the lighter evening approach and the weather improves the children will be enjoying the recreation areas .
Over the last three years new equipment has been provided in both villages and we hope to build on this in the future with
maybe some items for the older children or adult fitness. Please help to keep our play areas tidy by using the bins provided.
Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions or concerns.

This month’s Bible verse
For what is a man profited, if he shall gain
the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or
what shall a man give in exchange for his
soul?
Matthew 16:26
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and
just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse
us from all unrighteousness.

How shall we escape, if we neglect so great
salvation;

ShelterBox
Delabole Women’s Fellowship had a truly informative and
eye-opening visit to the Shelterbox HQ at Truro last month.
Not only are they very organised as an organisation,
they’re also spot-on with their guided tours - which are
free. We learnt such a lot.
When disaster strikes, they contact their partners based
on the ground and establish the scale of the disaster and
how they can help. They put together ShelterBoxes and
ShelterKits that are customised, based on what would help
families the most. They deliver these essentials that people
need to begin rebuilding their lives and they give them the
tools to self-recover and to keep families and communities
together.
If you’re in Truro and have an hour to spare, do pop into
the Visitors’ Centre in Charles Street (behind Moorfield
Car Park), Mon - Sat 10am - 4pm and have a look around.
Calling Instant Readers
Hope you’re an instant reader of ‘The Slate’, i.e. read it as
soon as it drops through your letterbox. If you are, you’ll
be able to consider dropping in to the Women’s Fellowship
on Wednesday 1st May at 2.30pm at the Methodist
Sunday School when it’s a games afternoon. Maybe
you’ve got a favourite table top game at home that you’d
like to bring along, And it’s all followed by refreshments.
Our final session for the season is a Cream Tea and AGM
on the 29th. That’s the time when we start collecting ideas
for the next session in September. So, if anyone has any
suggestions for topics that would appeal to them, let one
of us know and we’ll see what we can do.

Scott Mann MP
With Members of Parliament in the spotlight and the news filled with Brexit stories, the last few weeks in parliament have
continued to be both challenging and tough. At the time of writing the biggest issue of Brexit is regrettably no closer to
a conclusion but I am still positive that the deadlock can be broken, and a positive conclusion can be reached.
I was pleased to hear about the emergency plans that Joe Bischler, Emergency Management Officer at Cornwall Council,
has put into place should a large emergency ever occur in the surrounding area. These plans include contingencies
should the weather turn harsh and snow or ice cover the roads. Given the disruption that occurred in North Cornwall in
the winter after the snow storms, it is essential that a clear plan is devised to ensure residents can stay safe in hazardous
conditions. The hard work in creating this plan must be commended, and I firmly believe that an emergency plan is key
to saving lives in emergency situations. I would like to see this plan replicated in the area to ensure everyone is prepared
in the future.
I have also been busy working on some of the initiatives which I hope to bring to North Cornwall. Recently, and after
taking part in the parliamentary debate on autism, I had a meeting with the National Autistic Society Cornwall. They have
kindly offered to give my staff and I a training session in autism awareness, and I'm hoping we can make Bodmin
Cornwall's first autistic-friendly town. Businesses and shops which sign up would turn down music and dim lights to
support autistic customers for a period each week.
The coast is close to my heart and I am very keen to see my Bathing Waters Bill included in the wider Environment Bill,
which will set the benchmark for our environmental and water quality standards after Brexit. With that in mind I jumped
at the chance to get take part in a community beach clean at Sandymouth Beach in Bude. The event was hosted by the
Pennon Group as part of the ‘Great British Spring Clean’ campaign organised by Keep Britain Tidy in partnership with
the Daily Mail. Other clean up events took place across North Cornwall and I very much enjoyed seeing the pictures
posted online.
Finally, I am proud to be one of 41 MPs who have written to Ofcom, on behalf of the all-Party Parliamentary Group on
Rural business, to highlight the need for annual monitoring of mobile operators’ commitments on increasing rural 4G
mobile coverage. Ofcom has recently made moves to maximise 4G coverage across the country including here in North
Cornwall. Having more access to 4G across North Cornwall is firmly in everyone’s interest with greater coverage allowing
for better communication access for both constituents and local businesses alike.
I know how important this is for many of my constituents and we continue to fight for better coverage.

Now do you remember two years ago and the Great
Cornish Cake Bake which was held in memory of Mary
Scarrett at the Methodist Sunday School? The room (and
the stall) was packed and an amazing £652 was raised for
Cornish Hospice Care. It was repeated last year and guess
what’s going to happen in 2019?
The original fundraiser was such a success (I clearly
remember Barbara saying that she thought she was
clearing the cake stall when a new round of cakes and
goodies arrived to be sold) that it’s been decided to revisit
it this year.
So Delabole’s Great Cornish Cake Bake Day will be on
Friday 17th May between 10 a.m. and noon - again in
the Methodist Schoolroom and again we’re hoping for your
support in generously baking and hungrily devouring.
Remember, it’s in aid of Cornwall Hospice Care and the
morning won’t be the same without you.
Family Breakfast
Family Breakfast happens on the first Sunday of each
month at 9.30am in the Methodist Sunday School.
I am always the pessimist and mosey up to the kitchen
to tell Barbara and Marie that there aren’t many there so
no need to cook too much bacon or boiled eggs. Was I
wrong in April!It was almost full house and there was one
sausage left at the end.
Alison came up with her usual inventive craft activities to
back up the video that she showed and then it was time
to serve the food.
Truro Golf Club will play host to a charity Golf Event in
May which will not only provide a day of golf and the
chance to meet and mingle with other golfers but also raise
money for Merlin MS Centre.
The day tees off at 9am on May 24th with slots available
right through till 2pm for 18 holes of golf and a rolling two
course carvery. There will be lots of opportunities to win
prizes including nearest the pin and longest yard games,
the chance for your team to win up to £300 and a hole in
one prize of a Hot Tub from Cornish Hot Tubs worth
£6000. There will also be a presentation event in the
evening.
Event Co-ordinator, Tania Edwards, said “We are really
looking forward to this event, it’s a first for the Merlin MS
Centre but we are already seeing teams booking up for
both business and pleasure.”
Teams of four are invited to book at
www.crbo.co.uk/merlin. Costs are £120 for a team of
four which includes 18 holes and a two-course carvery.
Sponsorship opportunities are available, and donations of
prizes are always welcome.
For further details of the event contact Tania Edwards,
Event Co-ordinator on 01726 885530 or email
tania@merlinmscentre.org.uk
Thanks to all who work so hard preparing and helping -
your contribution is much appreciated. Thank you.

Dominic Fairman Cornwall Councillor - St Teath, St Breward & Delabole
All three of my larger villages have on-going development matters that have the potential to impact on them and so I thought
it would useful to highlight the different issues that there are for each, and the different ways of approaching them.
In Delabole there has been a high-profile public event regarding a potential development off Treligga Downs Road of 65 houses
by Wainhomes. The pre-application advice from the Councils planning department has specifically stated that any application
will need community support. This will be judged in the main by the view of the Parish Council who will have the difficult job of
weighing up potential benefits such as affordable housing, highways improvements and extra school capacity against the
overall impact on the village. I hope that residents will seek out their local councillors and make their views known remembering
at all times that your councillors are volunteers doing a difficult job on behalf of the community. I would also welcome any views
and opinions
In St Teath another potential proposal for 24 affordable homes in a field opposite the school has caused concern. This site is
compliant with current policies and with a proposed 100% affordable units is more likely to attract support from the planning
department. The access onto North Road is an issue as the incoming carriageway is often restricted by parked cars especially
during school hours. One of the key considerations is assessing the need for affordable housing in the village for people with
a connection to the parish. With one permission already granted for affordable housing off Trehannick Road people might
query this – however many sites across Cornwall that already have permission are never built due to commercial reasons.
I strongly believe that St Teath village would benefit from a Neighbourhood Development Plan, which would allow the community
to have a greater say in future developments. This has now been successfully done in many villages in Cornwall but does take
a committed dedicated team of volunteers to work alongside the Parish Council to see it through to completion. If this is
something that would interest you then please get in touch with me.
Finally, in St Breward the recent development of 21 houses in Chyryn Drive has generally been well received. All the rented
properties have been filled with local families – however four of the shared ownership units remain empty at the time of writing.
Whilst shared ownership can be a good option for some families – it does have drawbacks, and it is a matter of debate as to
whether these are truly affordable homes. The houses are set at full market value and a sizable deposit is required for the
owned percentage which puts these beyond the means of many local families.
I have urged the Parish Council to investigate promoting a Community Land Trust for the village which could develop small
sites of truly affordable housing for rent or at discount purchase that will be for local people in perpetuity. If you live in St Breward
and would like to be involved, please do get in touch with me. Once again it will require a group of community driven volunteers
to work alongside the Parish Council to achieve this.

to report that the final sum sent to the Appeal was
£2,700.00 and expressed his appreciation to all who had
contributed to raising this wonderful amount.
Future events and dates were discussed for the coming
months and it was decided to hold a commemoration to
mark D Day in June. Please look for posters giving details
of this in the coming weeks.

Sunday School room on Sunday 2nd June from 2pm until

Butterfly Bunting
The Palliative and End of Life Care Team at Royal
Cornwall Hospital are asking the knitting and crochet
enthusiasts of Cornwall to help them create a string of
butterfly bunting to reach around the Royal Cornwall
Hospital in Truro, West Cornwall Hospital in Penzance
and St Michael’s Hospital in Hayle.
To mark the start of Dying
Matters Week, starting on
Monday 13th May, the team want
to wrap the hospitals in a big
butterfly bunting hug.
Hilary’s already produced more
than 40, so if you’d like to
increase the number, here’s the
knitting pattern below. If you
prefer to crotchet the pattern’s on the Royal Cornwall
Hospital’s website.
However, the downside is that we need the bunting by
May 6th but they’d like us to join the butterflies together
to speed up the stringing of them around the buildings. If
anyone’s happy to join the butterflies together (6th - 8th
May), give me a ring on 212558 PLEASE!
Knitted Butterfly (Stocking Stitch)
Wings
R1: Cast on 5 stitches
R2: Knit row
R3: Knit front and back of 1st stitch, knit 1, purl 1, knit 1
and knit front and back of last stitch (increase)
R4: Knit row
R5: Knit front and back of 1st, knit 1, purl 3, knit 1 and knit
front and back of last stitch (increase)
R6: Knit row

Cut the yarn and move to end of needle to make the 2nd
curve of the wing. Cast on to repeat pattern on the same
needle.
When you’ve completed the 2nd set, both wing curves will
be on the same needle.
A Delabole Resident
It’s coming to something when one of Delabole’s greatest
assets is allowed to become overgrown with weeds, litter,
graffiti and peeling paint and the Landlady of The Bettle
and Chisel feels the need to don overalls and clean up the
outside of the public toilets, wash down the paint and
repaint the whole outside.
To her and her helpers I would like to say a big thank you.
What a smashing job you have done, it looks great.
To the Parish Council that runs these toilets I would like
to say, ‘What do you spend our money on?’
Nowhere can we find out where our Council Tax goes.
Under the rules of transparency this information should be
on the Council web site, available for all to see, but it is
not! In fact the new web site they had created, (and what
did that cost?) has nothing on it apart from occasional
minutes, which do not show how much they spend each
month, and agendas!
All they seem to have done is cut down what few trees we
had and put up notices telling us we will be fined for doing
all manner of things.
Why don’t they clear the lay-by of commercial vehicles
and vehicles ‘for sale’ so people could park there to use
the toilets and go to the shop, instead of having to block
Pengelly and adjacent roads?
They have even pulled up the Hornbeam hedge in the
cemetery that two widows of the Parish paid for so they
would have had a sheltered area in which to sit when
visiting their husband’s graves! St Teach Parish Council
is not fit for purpose.

A Methodist Minister’s View
He’s got the whole world in his hand
He’s got the whole world in his hand
He’s got the whole wide world in his hand
He’s got the whole world in his hand
I recently used this hymn at the start of a morning Service which
included a baptism. We went on to sing ‘He’s got the little tiny
baby’ and ‘He’s got everybody here in his hand.’ Through singing
the hymn we were reminding ourselves that we live alongside
other in God’s World, and that God cares for each of us.
There is no known author to this hymn, But it comes to us from the African -American spiritual tradition and is a
hymn or song that has passed through the generations over, perhaps, 250 or more years. Its origins are a reminder
to us that we live in a world where each one of us contributes to the experience and well being of people around
us, and across the world.
I have become really conscious of the fact that we live on a World map and part of the World Village over recent
days as the publicity for Christian Aid Week has arrived in the post. Christian Aid Week this year runs from 12 th
– 18 th May and during that week we will be encouraged to think of the plight of many of other brothers and sisters
in our countries and contribute something to aid their well-being. Christian Aid as an organisation is one of our
leading overseas development agencies whose work makes a difference to the lives of many people through their
on-going project work. Additionally, they are one of the bodies who run the National Disasters Emergency
Committee which responds to emergency situations when they arise. Hopefully like me, you respect the work
which they do.
My thinking about us living on a World map and contributing to the welfare of each other also came to the fore as
I have listened to the news bulletins which have reported on the ‘racist comments’ being made at some football
matches toward some of our talented players. Some of our premier league teams include players from various
nations whose skills are marvelled week in week out. Amidst their experiences of hurtful comments, they contribute
to our well being in our world village. – God’s World. Indeed, many people from many nations contribute to our
well-being.
All of this gives us food for thought and reflection as we experience God’s love and goodness day by day.
Every Blessing,
Bryan Ede
