Cornwall Centenary Open Garden & Cream Tea! Sun 13 Sept, 2-5pm at Millpool Grange PL30 4HZ. Talks by Robin & Merlin Hanbury-Tenison

Last few spaces! Book yours today!

As part of our Cornwall Centenary events, we are hosting an Open Garden and Cream Tea afternoon on Sunday, September 13th from 2 until 5pm at Millpool Grange, Millpool PL30 4HZ.

We are delighted to confirm that our Patron Merlin Hanbury-Tenison and his amazing 90 year old father, the famous explorer Robin Hanbury-Tenison, will pop in around 4pm to give us a short talk about their intrepid 100 miles water bike trip down the Thames. They raised a huge amount for the Thousand Year Trust’s first dedicated temperate rain forest research station at Cabilla.

Millpool Grange is three-and-a-half acres of garden with a stream (somewhat depleted currently), semi-formal area with fountain and two bridges, and a wildlife pond teeming with life. It is home to otters, moorhens and of course the heron and wildflowers and helpful weeds are allowed to flourish for wildlife. Most plants are grown from seed and specifically for bees and butterflies.

Cornwall CPRE relies almost solely on volunteers and membership and it would be wonderful if you could find the time to come along and learn more about what we do. Entrance is free and the cream tea which is £5 will be home- made scones from a secret family recipe. Well-behaved dogs are welcome (on a lead) as there are moorhens in the little lake.

We had been expecting the publication of the revised National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) before the House of Commons rose for summer recess. CPRE was concerned that publication of the NPPF would be premature, given the incoming Government and the plans Andy Burnham had set out, particularly regarding new social housing, protecting green spaces and devolution, including for rural areas. The proposed changes to the NPPF were extremely centralising, which is the antithesis of the plans Burnham has set out.

CPRE lobbied civil servants to delay publication of the NPPF until the new ministerial team was in place, and we are pleased to have persuaded officials to postpone publication. CPRE will continue to press the Government to amend the NPPF, particularly around removing the concept of the "grey belt" and encouraging brownfield development, reinstating the weight given to valued landscapes, and ensuring more rural affordable housing is delivered.
