July already…
FROM OUR 2010 HA CALENDAR – JULY
Richard Trevithick
Born 1771 in Camborne. He was an inventor and mining engineer, his most significant success was the high pressure steam engine which he then used to build a full-scale working steam locomotive – the first car! ‘Puffing Devil’ carried several men through Camborne to Beacon, inspiring the traditional Cornish song ‘Camborne Hill’.
His inventions and business ventures took him all over the world, but he eventually died penniless aged 62 and was buried in an unmarked grave in Kent. A statue depicting Trevithick holding one of his small-scale models now stands beside the public library at Camborne.

Happy May Day
From our HA Calendar
2010
MAY
William Murdoch, (1754 –1839), a Scotsman working in the mining industry in Cornwall in the late 1700s was an extremely talented engineer and innovator. His most famous invention was the application of gas lighting for domestic houses to replace tallow and oil lamps. With the first domestic residence in Britain to be lit by gas being Murdoch’s own house in Redruth in 1792. The town has an Annual Murdoch Day in June celebrating his significant contributions.

Invest in great photography
Hot off the press – here are the first of the new photos of Leycroft Valleys new bar and bistro due to open in 2 weeks time. It was a fun day working with Bob Berry in perfect weather conditions, in just a few hours we managed to dress and style the bar/bistro and capture some fantastic new shots for the clients website and marketing material. Photo shoots can often be very long days – but I am happy to say we nailed it and enjoyed some cappuccino’s in the sun by lunch time!
