rural Cornwall is classified as a deprived region. It is one of the UK’s poorest rural counties. A
victim of early deindustrialisation, the region’s mining industries are now long- gone leaving it over-
dependent on tourism. – Most shops stayed shut for the rest of the season and the reduction in tourist
numbers during future years, may result in a negative multiplier effect for the entire local community.
“We've actually lost 79% of our turnover this winter” • In addition, shops were carrying greater
levels of stock than at other times of the year. – House prices fell – People found the value of their
homes permanently reduced, now that Boscastle is associated with a serious flood risk. It has been
suggested that values have halved • Wider regional impact – In addition, the effect may spread
beyond Boscastle if other river-line settlements are perceived to be at risk by tourists. – Boscastle
businesses can claim compensation from their insurance companies (claims for ‘disruption to trading’
in Boscastle could amount to £15m). However, others businesses elsewhere in Cornwall cannot, even
though they too may suffer reduced trade next year. – This is a cause for concern, with tourism
accounting for 30% of Cornwall’s GDP. The population doubles during July and August each year,
with tourists spending up to £1 billion throughout the county. Change in bed profile, Creation of

Learning and Revising Geography GCSE in the 21st century. The local people of Boscastle were
affected very greatly in many ways. Firstly, people couldn’t get out of buildings because of the
floodwater and had to seek refuge on the roofs of the buildings and just wait to be rescued. Because
of this they were waiting around to be rescued for a large amount of time. Because of this, it meant
that people were of risk of developing hypothermia, or being swept away by the flood waters. The
dangers of developing hypothermia, shock and being ... 1. BOSCASTLE MEDC FLOODING-
CAUSES/EFFECTS AND MANAGEMENT STRAGIES Causes:Physical -Stormy weather up to
flood meant saturated ground -Steep saturated sides of Valency Valley meant increased surface run
off and therefore discharge volume -Impermeable rock at Bodmin moor prevented infiltration so
water reached channel faster -Over 60mm (typically a month’s rainfall) fell in 2 hours on already
saturated land -Boscastle is at confluence of 3 rivers:Valency, Jordan & Paradise - Flooding
coincided with high tide makingmatters worse Background: A small north Cornish town popular with
tourists.Approximately 800 permanent residents but more affected due to influx of tourists. Hit by
catastrophic floods on 16th August 2004 Causes:Human: -Less significant -Lack of any flood
control eg raised banks around river or emergency drainage ditches -Old sewer and drainage system
with low capacity -Small, low bridges over river trapped material and cars acting as dam and causing
water to flow round the bridge causing more flooding Flood Defence Scheme: Cost £4.6 million and
completed by 2008. -Widening channel and lowering bed by 0.7m to increase discharge capacity -
Raising car park to work as flood defence and make cars safer -Car park new permeable surface -
New river/flood defence wall to reduce impact (hard engineering) -Relocated lower bridge with
raised arch to prevent debris build up -Clearing vegetation from river bed- active management every
summer - New gauging station to measure flow/speed of water to aid flood protection -Drainage
improvements Sustainability of defence scheme: -Area protected so people don’t move away so no
job losses -Less property damage so tourist industry can continue..Last a long time so no large on-
going costs -£4.6million small in comparison to £20million insurance pay out Effects: -25 business
properties destroyed. (loss of jobs & cost of repair) -50 buildings damaged (owner cost of repair,
insurance pay out causes future premiums to rise) -4 footbridges washed away (cost of rebuild for
council) -Pavements and gardens damaged by weight of water -Roads blocked so rescue by
helicopter only -Burst sewage left Boscastle inaccessible for a few days -£20 million insurance pay
out so premiums will now rise -Visitor centre destroyed and mud/debris covered large parts of the
town. This devastated local economy, 90% of which comes from tourists Sorry, that resource no

rocks... How is sedimentary rock formed? When rocks settle at the bottom of the sea/river bed the
deposited rocks build up in layers called sediments. Over hundreds of thousands of years, the
sediments are compacted and sedimentary rock is formed. Limestone is a sedimentary rock. Tufa and
travertine are both varieties of limestone. Can you remember why they link to Mother Shipton’s
Cave? How is igneous rock formed? When the molten rock magma inside the earth cools and
solidifies, igneous rock is formed. Igneous rocks like granite are very hard and tough. How is
metamorphic rock formed? When the rocks are deeply buried and squeezed, they are heated and put
under great pressure. They do not melt, but the minerals they contain are changed chemically,
forming metamorphic rocks. An example of metamorphic rock is slate. A bundle is a package of

Sorry, but we’re having difficulties showing you the page you asked for. Boscastle village is located
in a steep sided and narrow valley through which the River Valency flows down to the harbour. In
2004 an intense storm centred over the small wooded catchment caused massive erosion of sediment
and river-side trees. This,combined with high flows, inundated the village with water and debris
causing extensive damage. Not your computer? Use Guest mode to sign in privately. Learn more

Very wet, saturated soils • Compacted or dry soil • Human factors increasing flood risk: •

flood plain on the west coast of England, where rainfall is often high. • Early settlers would have
been attracted by ‘site’ factors such as the fresh water supply and access to a natural harbour. • There
are now around 1,000 permanent residents, most of who rely upon the situation of the settlement to
provide tourist revenues (it is close to the South West Coast Path). • The rainfall hit at the worst time
of year when the settlement population doubles to 2,000 as tourists arrive, many of who are
following the South West Coast Path. A case study on the 2004 Boscastle Flood. (Recommended for
