	Penlee History
		1803 The forerunner of Penlee lifeboat station was a lifeboat stationed at Penzance.
		The RNLI established a station at Penlee and a new boathouse and roller slipway were built at Penlee Point.
		A flagstaff made from the wreckage of the Solomon Browne, and her flag, were presented to the Dean and Chapter of Truro Cathedral as a memorial and in appreciation of the support given by the Bishop and cathedral authorities to the Penlee families and the RNLI at the time of the disaster.

	Scuba Diving: HMS Coronation and the Penlee Cannon site : Devon Shipwrecks: Submerged Productions
		Well she was still somewhere between Rame Head and Penlee Point, and what happened next is largely a matter for conjecture.
		All we do know for certain is that she was anchored somewhere between Rame and Penlee, apparently completely dismasted with only an ensign flying from her stern.
		However the Penlee cannon site is open to all and a very interesting dive it is too.

	Speedway riders share their memories
		Some of the men at last weekend’s Penlee reunion won’t see 70 again, but the enthusiasm is as strong today as it ever was.
		In the 1970s the Penlee track, in the shadows of the Tararuas near Mt Holdsworth, was a significant venue, attracting the top riders from far and wide, with big crowds turning out to watch the action.
		Penlee has long gone, but Ivan Cartmell keeps the tradition going, with the development of the Hughes Line track, on his farm.

		The Penlee lifeboat disaster occurred on 19 December 1981 off the south-west coast of England, when the Penlee lifeboat went to the aid of the stricken coaster Union Star in heavy seas.
		The conditions were so rough that the crew of the Royal Navy Sea King helicopter sent from RNAS Culdrose were unable to remove any of the eight crew.
		However, under new legislation, the coastguard was empowered to declare a mayday and authorise salvage on behalf of a ship's captain.

	Cornwall Wildlife Trust stands up for the protection of Penlee Quarry
		Penlee Quarry was owned for a number of years by mining companies to extract aggregates such as greenstone rock for road construction.
		The geological value of Penlee Quarry has been recognised through a number of conditions imposed on any mineral extraction rights that require geological surveys to be carried out alongside any extraction operations.
		Richard adds, "The future of Penlee Quarry should be based around allowing the local community to reclaim ownership through the establishment of a local nature reserve.

	No Marina at Penlee Quarry between Newlyn and Mousehole
		Penlee Quarry would need a very large sum of money spent on it to bring it up to the requisite health and safety standards that are needed to permit the stone to be legally quarried, loaded, and removed again.
		The Port Penlee development, and the other simultaneous proposed developments in the immediate area, add up to a loss of the loved and familiar that could be psychologically acute.
		The problem with the Port Penlee and the extensive Newlyn redevelopment is that it will mean a sudden and massive influx of newcomers who are sure to upset the established equilibrium and this is guaranteed to have a number of knock-on effects that will affect our culture in very unpleasant ways.

	Penzance Association Football Club: Ground jubilee
		IT was early in 1951 that bulldozers advanced to tear into a piece of ground in the Alexandra Road area of Penzance to prepare the way for what was to become one of the best football stadiums in the west.
		Penlee Park as it is seen today is a far cry from its humble beginnings.
		Since then Penlee Park has played host to numerous professional teams, and plans are in place to host another Football League club later this year to mark 50 years of football at the ground, hopefully with a new set of floodlights to mark the ground's Jubilee year.

	Milton Keynes - The 25th Anniversary by Sue Benwell - Speakeasy
		The Union Star, en route from Holland to Arklow in Ireland with a cargo of fertiliser, was on her maiden voyage.
		A salvage tug, the Noord Holland, stood by in case they failed to restart the Union Star's engines and a Sea King helicopter was scrambled from Culdrose on the Lizard peninsular, to airlift the captain's family to safety if needed.
		Research may well lead them, as it has me, to the deserted boathouse at Penlee, with its touchingly simple memorial garden, and then to the north aisle in the Parish Church at Paul, where a plaque on a granite boulder, fittingly brought from Lamorna Cove, commemorates the eight lifeboatmen.

		Intimidating as the monstrous swell was on the night of December 19, 1981, the "shout" was answered promptly and with typical gusto.
		Neil's father Nigel, the ship's mechanic, was also a member of the company, and Trevelyan Richards insisted he would not risk two members of the same family.

		A large quantity of Penlee Quarry stone is required to enable this project to be cost-effective.
		The cost of the scheme, without using cut-price stone sourced from Penlee, would be vastly more than the cost of any anticipated repairs to the promenade, even accounting for the very worst anticipated effects of global warming.
		The Sandy Cove scheme could not proceed without Penlee Quarry stone (which could be delivered by lorries along the current cycleway), nor without the Newlyn Harbour scheme and, consequently, the Seafood Park scheme.

		On 19 December 1981 the Penlee lifeboat, Solomon Browne, was lost with all her volunteer crew and the four souls they had rescued from the stricken freighter Union Star.

		Last night's TV BBC1 made no attempt to dramatise its film about the Penlee lifeboat disaster - and the documentary was all the more poetic for it
		Mary Richards was the mother of Trevelyan Richards, coxswain of the Penlee lifeboat, lost with all hands in 1981.
		For 25 years I have remembered the peculiar poignancy of her words: "With that he was gone, and the door slammed in the wind." Quite apart from its freight of sorrow, that line is poetry.

	A woman's touch on the tiller at Penlee
		IN its distinguished history, no RNLI disaster stands out like the loss of the Penlee lifeboat, when eight men died trying to save the crew of the Union Star six days before Christmas 1981.
		The tragedy touched the nation and led to the raising of £3 million, which in turn created its own controversy.
		There were no life-or-death rescues by the Penlee boat last year and so far this year there has not been a single call-out.

		None can have been more unfortunate than the loss of the Penlee lifeboat as well as the ship whose crew she was trying to rescue, the Union Star, on Christmas Day 1981.
		A memorial garden has replaced the Penlee lifeboat station and the area is now served by a new station at Newlyn.
		The mile and a half of road walking from Penlee Point to Newlyn comes as something of a rude shock after the peace and quiet of the cliffs and coves back beyond Mousehole.
