Early morning dog swim in The Gannel opposite our Corisande development. Still looking great 10 years on - both dog and development are the same age.

APP/A0665/W/14/2212671 Darnhall School Lane - Yet another Secretary of State appeal decision determined by politics. Until this country removes politics from planning I fear this country will never efficiently deliver the homes it so badly needs....
Duncan Powell retweeted
With a proven track record of the delivery of high quality and well designed new homes, we agree with the Housing Secretary’s comments. There is no excuse for poor design.

Well done to those who took part in the annual Dragon Boat Race last weekend raising funds for @alzheimerssoc. A special thanks to D Wall Construction, Taylor Lewis & @bwmwindows, some of the companies working with us on The Liner and The Courtyard at Duporth, who kindly donated.
Some fantastic photos from the annual #DragonBoatRace in #Falmouth last weekend. As part of @FalmouthWeek, our team in Cornwall had a great time raising £550 for Ladies Aloud in support of @alzheimerssoc. A huge thanks to all those involved! 👏

Some good points by Christopher Young QC @No5Chambers on planning issues the Government needs to address. Fingers crossed at least some are taken on board. ow.ly/5m4P50vkZmM

Analysis by @BBCNews predicts a decline in the number of young residents living in coastal communities. With significant investment of £100m across our Newquay sites, @AcornPG has transformed this coastal town into a thriving hub for young families. ow.ly/5AeP50viBkk
