Abstract / Summary

This report advances a research agenda between Cornwall National Landscape (CNL) and Falmouth University’s Centres for Heritage, Culture & Society and Arts & Health. ‘Tranquillity’ is a multidimensional concept: this report explores the meanings and uses of tranquillity in a landscape context.

Tranquillity appears in various domains across research, policy, and popular discourse. It is important as it is embedded in landscape and planning policy, and also due to increasing acknowledgement of the benefit of people’s interaction with the natural environment for their health and wellbeing. This scoping project therefore provides an overview of existing understandings and practice in the context of CNL, and suggests further avenues to explore.
