Three maps are presented that portray the periglacial geomorphology of the three summit areas of Bodmin Moor, Cornwall, SW England, including Brown Willy (scale 1:2630), Kilmar/Bearah/Sharp tors (scale 1:3335) and Rough/Little Rough/Showery tors (scale 1:2175). Landform elements include castellated tors with well-developed cantilevered or precariously balanced corestones, summit blockfields, rock-fronted lobes thought to record former permafrost creep, patterned ground (stripes) and lower slope accumulations of crudely stratified growan or weathered granite residue. The altitudinal arrangement of these periglacial landforms appears to be a signature of a well-established periglacial landsystem and hence the Bodmin Moor granite massif is a suitable exemplar for a mature upland periglacial landsystem unaffected by glacierization.

Gravity modelling of the Dartmoor, Bodmin, St. Austell and Carnmenellis plutons of the Cornubian Batholith of SW England strongly supports a tabular form for the exposed granites. Modelled thicknesses for the individual bodies, with the exception of Dartmoor, are consistent with those derived from empirical relationships for plutons and laccoliths. In the case of the Dartmoor, Bodmin and St. Austell plutons the deepest parts are located near their southern margins, suggesting a steep conduit with northerly and outward direct flows. Modelling of the Carnmenellis granite suggests a more centrally located feeder. In the case of Dartmoor, at least, the granite appears to have exploited the Devonian-Carboniferous interface during its emplacement.

The magnetic fabrics and microstructures of the Variscan granite pluton of Bodmin (Cornwall) have been studied. Its low susceptibility magnitude, consistent with its lack of magnetite, comes from biotite and tourmaline. As the magneto-crystalline behaviour of tourmaline is \"inverse\" compared with that of the phyllosilicates, the magnetic fabric was remeasured after heating the specimens to enhance the biotite magnetic signal by the growth of mimetic magnetite. The roughly similar magnetic fabrics before and after heating demonstrate that the effect of tourmaline is not important as long as the tourmaline content does not exceed that of the phyllosilicates. Regionally, this study reveals a well-defined NNW trend of the magnetic lineations with opposite plunges on each side of a separation line crossing the pluton centre. This pattern, very similar to that documented in the nearby Carnmenellis pluton, is ascribed to unroofing during emplacement. It agrees with the late to post-magmatic NW stretch that characterizes the Devonian to Carboniferous formations located to the north of this region, the thrust-and-fold structure of which is attributed to southward compression. We conclude that syntectonic emplacement may have characterized the whole Cornubian batholith at the very end of the Variscan orogeny in Cornwall.

This paper is an exploration of the relationship between topographic features of the landscape, agency and power in small-scale societies. In it I argue that topographic features of the landscape constitute a series of symbolic resources of essential significance in the formation of personal biographies and the creation and reproduction of structures of power. I attempt to explore these ideas through a discussion of the prehistoric landscapes of Bodmin Moor from the Neolithic to the end of the Bronze Age.

There were six-mile tailbacks on the A30 westbound, Devon and Cornwall police said. School buses were cancelled in north Devon because of the weather. A spokesman for PA WeatherCentre said the blizzards in Cornwall were pretty unusual for November, so the area was less prepared to cope than Scotland was. Luke Halls, restaurant supervisor at the Jamaica Inn on [Bodmin Moor], said traffic had not moved for hours on the A30.

Both rivers have been designated as controlled areas and this week Biosecurity New Zealand has held meetings in Invercargill, Tuatapere and Te Anau to explain and answer any questions about the implications, and the permit requirements. Biosecurity NZ senior surveillance and incursion response adviser Kerry Bodmin said the aim was to contain, control and eradicate the invasive algae bloom didymosphenia geminate (didymo) in the rivers. \"We would prefer people to avoid both rivers altogether, as there are plenty of alternatives. However, for people still wanting to use either rivers permits must be obtained and produced on demand,\" Ms Bodmin said. \"Basically if you haven't got a controlled-area permit, you can't use the rivers.\" River users had to show they had equipment that would be used only on the rivers affected by didymo, use approved cleaning methods or decontaminated their equipment.

About 200 were picked up from the Tuatapere Service Station on Friday. Applications are also available from DOC's Te Anau office, and in Invercargill from [Agriquality], Environment Southland and Fish and Game Southland.

There were six-mile tailbacks on the A30 westbound and gritters and snowploughs were at the scene but it was proving very difficult to get traffic moving again, Devon and Cornwall police said. Meanwhile police forces in the worst-hit parts of Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and South West England reported a spate of weather-related rescues and crashes on treacherous roads, despite gritters working flat out overnight. Luke Halls, restaurant supervisor at the Jamaica Inn on [Bodmin Moor], said traffic had not been moving at all on the A30 for several hours.
