Greenfield Gardens, a community area in Portreath, has been officially opened to the public.The honour of cutting the ivy draped across the entrance was given to keen gardener George Hearn, one of the oldest residents in the village.
Portreath's oldest indigenous citizen, Capt Gordon Greenslade, gave a speech outlining the history of the site.
Villagers and invited guests, who included MP Julia Goldsworthy and Mike Eddowes, Chairman of Kerrier District Council, made their way to the Millennium Hall for refreshments and music provided by Illogan Sparnon Band.
Work costing £48,000 was carried out on the gardens last year, transforming a tired, run-down area into a beautiful park with large grassed areas, new paths, raised flower beds, disabled access and a sunken amphitheatre.
Finishing touches included a range of shrubs, and a large number of daffodils planted by children from the village school.

Greenfield Gardens
As you will be aware from other reports in this issue, the seats and litter bins purchased by the Parish Council have now been installed in Greenfield Gardens and the bulk of the improvements have been completed.
Sunnyvale Road
Following representations to the County Council work has now been carried out to stabilise the
Highway at the southern end of Sunnyvale Road where slippage had occurred. A fence has also been erected along this repaired area.
Beach Road
Preliminary plans have been prepared by the County Council for a new kerb line along Beach Road which will slightly narrow the width of this road but delineated parking areas will be retained.
It is also proposed that an additional ‘bus shelter be provided around the area of The Square and that the existing shelter be upgraded.

Cllr PAUL HOLMESLiberal Party councillor for Illogan and Portreath.
AT LONG last the Cornish language is recognised equally with other native British languages. Surely tourist areas like Helston and Porthleven would be pleased to see efforts to use Cornwall's culture to promote and educate both tourist and resident alike.
In support of Mr R Chubb's letter on the history of local streets I can state that I have been pleasantly surprised with the support and encouragement of many of my constituents. Many streets are being named for the first time using historical research and local knowledge, correcting corrupted words for example.
The voters of Kerrier have elected three Cornish speaking district councillors, so there is no problem in ensuring accuracy on Cornish usage.
Negative comments by anti-Cornish councillors who speak without knowing the facts helps no one, but divides communities.

The council is proposing to move from the existing ban on dogs on beaches, under the Cornwall County Council Act, to dog control orders under the Clean Neighbourhoods and Environment Act.
The dog control order offers the council the ability to issue a fixed penalty notice to offenders as an alternative to court proceedings.
The term of the ban will remain the same, running from Easter Day to October 1.
But the beaches affected by dog bans may alter, subject to the representations received from members of the public.
The council is encouraging people to write to them with their views now, whether they are for or against the banning of dogs on beaches, as once in place the dog control orders will not necessarily be f]]> Sat, 03 Mar 2007 12:12:46 +0000 mod http://portreathparishcouncil.pbwiki.com/News email.hidden@example.com (chris) chris edited News BILINGUAL SIGNS COST THE TAX PAYER NO MORE

Re: Re: Street signs idea 'a waste of money', Camborne Redruth & & Hayle West Briton, last week.
I I AM a member of Kerrier District Council's advisory panel for the use of Cornish and I was invited to join because of my expertise in the language. As far as I am aware, because the signs in question are due for replacement, placing a bilingual version of the sign costs no extra money.
This This is because of the way in which the signs are made. Kerrier Council does not pay on a 'per letter' basis, which is not the case for all Cornish district councils. I might add that my own time and travelling expense for attending meetings of the advisory panel is given free of charge. There is apparently no mechanism to reimburse me.
