Heamoor West

Heamoor West

I like where I live because:

  • It is by the sea, we have beautiful scenery and sea side. It is relatively safe.
  • My garden keeps me busy, good neighbours
  • It is friendly and I have shops around me and a bus which comes every half hour, as not everyone has a car. We need Penzance updated with better shops.
  • Location, ease of walking distance to amenities. Garden open space, countryside
  • On edge of Heamoor, 30 minutes walk to Penzance major shopping area with Doctor, Dentist and all amenities available to people our age (70’s)
  • Good locality. Near Penzance schools, hospital etc.
  • Heamoor is a friendly village to live in. Been here for 28 years
  • The village s a thriving community. It is on a bus route near to school and shops and a short walk down the road we are in the country
  • I love the garden, parking, safe environment for children. Can walk to town, also bus route ideal for work
  • Quiet cul-de-sac, good neighbours, good buses to town
  • Its in a quiet cul-de-sac on the edge of town
  • It is comfortable, manageable and close to services
  • I was born in village, when I bought my house 40 yr. ago it was still a lovely village and a nice area to live. There was a good school which has I think fallen back
  • It’s near the town and it’s near the countryside
  • Nicholas Park, estate is a very nice friendly place to live. I would like to see more parking, if that means taking away some of the grass
  • Everyone is so friendly and neighbourly
  • It is quiet, friendly with good neighbours
  • Generally well kept and maintained neighbourhood. Appears to be a socially responsible environment
  • Quiet, not too far from town
  • It is a retirement bungalow and easy to heat, clean and decorate and parking area for family
  • Close to schools (primary & secondary), easy walk to town/countryside doesn’t need access through Heamoor which is very congested.
  • It is a nice quiet cul-de-sac
  • It is quiet, handy, easy living
  • Quiet area, gardens, car parking, good neighbours
  • It’s quiet , not much trouble
  • It is close to my childrens schools and it is not a council estate. Overall people keep their properties looking nice.

I don’t like where I live because:

  • Nothing adventurous happens with the town shops, buildings or regeneration. Look at Penzance compared to Falmouth
  • Heamoor and Madron are becoming far too built up. Build homes on brown field site first (e.g.) Penlee Quarry
  • Speed, amount if traffic using the estate as a run especially at school times
  • If you build 450 houses behind my garden
  • Parking
  • N/A
  • Getting into Penzance, there is congestion due to parking on the exit road and since the bypass was built I no longer feel it is a village and traffic is chaotic in summer
  • No comment to add
  • None
  • The town (PZ) is dying through lack of parking and toilets
  • Big housing development in pipe line. No affordable council houses for youngsters to rent, all local jobs going fishing, farming etc.
  • With my husband being a police officer we often have his ‘service users’ passing our property and taking excessive interest, but for the present the advantages of where we live outweigh this annoyance.
  • Too small
  • Buses are few
  • Very mixed range of people on estate e.g. druggies etc. but they leave us alone so that is good
  • It’s too far from town and is a 10/15 minute walk to the nearest shop
  • I cannot drive along the roads for the amount of parked cars and vans on it (Boscathoe Way & Madron Road)

What would you most like to change about where you live:

  • Use of our seaside facilities – harbours, promenade, Newlyn green. A club for live music other than Sound! Regeneration of the town centre and some colour! We don’t just want pasty shops and sell your gold shops!
  • Cleaner streets
  • More things for children to do to keep them off the streets and the traffic to be capped with the speed they come down Madron
  • Too many second homes. Stop housing problem family’s into social housing. Homes for local Cornish
  • Keeping of countryside and open spaces without anymore building, keeping the nearby national trust property in appropriate surroundings
  • Although we have a 20 mph speed limit in Heamoor the majority of drivers ignore this. We are right next door to the academy and fear there will be motor accidents involving children
  • Parking in street
  • Better access road through haemovore village
  • We are concerned that the proposed houses on Boscathoe Lane will change everything with our estate becoming a cut through to Main Road and even more traffic hold ups
  • Nothing
  • Trees in garden behind could be lopped
  • Car parking and toilets in town centre. 45 mins is not long enough. Car parking charges are too high
  • More younger families prepared to socialise
  • Stop big building developments. Local people to have say in decisions about what goes on in area. More working class local people running things that effect area.
  • Some people don’t pick up their dog’s mess. This needs to be policed much better as there is a primary and nursery school nearby and we often see it stepped in or pushchair wheel marks!
  • Following on from the above comment. It would work out cheaper to cut down on crass area to accommodate more cars
  • More parking spaces for all the cars
  • Some of the trees need cutting back. Green moss on some of the walkways
  • Litter!
  • Empty holiday homes!
  • It’s fine
  • More dog waste bins and bins in general. In Penzance public toilets are desperately needed, also need to have more shops in town and less charity shops.
  • A view
  • Have central heating
  • More buses
  • General tidy up
  • A shop closer, and to see this area free of constant dog faeces
  • Have double yellow lines and enforcements to stop people parking on corners making driving dangerous
