April 8 - Landslip makes cliff stronger

April 8 - Landslip makes cliff stronger

April 08, 2024

Alright, Newquay!

Every day I promise myself that I won't mention the weather but I don't remember it ever being this bad. It feels like we haven't seen a sunny day this year.

I guess this is what people in Seattle feel like.

The running joke is they have over 100 different ways to say it's raining.

My favourite... Big Fat Raindrops!

Anyway, let’s get to today’s issue…

📖 Featured story

Landslip has made the cliffs stronger

This story was shared by Radio Newquay this morning.

An application has been submitted to net the cliffs at Whipsiderry as part of a planned holiday homes development.

The application on behalf of the developer follows a series of landslips.

A drone survey and investigation have been carried out on behalf of Living Quarter Properties. The subsequent report suggests the "landslip has provided benefits to the cliff’s stability" and claims the "cliff profile is no longer undercut, making remediation simpler".

It suggests that "rock bolting and meshing with a regular maintenance and renewal regime" would provide sufficient stabilisation to reduce erosion - providing protection to the development for at least 125 years.

Now, I’m not a professional landslip expert but I’m calling BS on that survey.

Considering how bad the weather has been I thought it was fitting that Stormzy was confirmed this weekend to play Boardmasters.

I love this property.

The location, size of the land, and design of the building. It ticks every box.

If anyone has a spare ½ a million send them my way! 😀

📸 Nostalgic Photo of the Day

Philip Cross put this picture up in the Newqua Nostalgia FB group at the end of March.

Looks like from the comments it was taken in 1952 and is down on Porth Beach.

Reminds me of the show Heartbeat. What I would give to spend a day back in this era. People from then would think now is mind-blowing.

What do you mean you can speak to someone in Australia and see their face whilst holding an object in your hand?!
