The engraved PI,ATES are by different arti@ts. I am indebted to so many kind friends for assistance anu hospitality that a Tist of theil· names would be too long and perhaps unMcessary, therefore I hope all ·will be pleased to accept m general terms my warmest and most grateful thanks. The knell~ of Sfoveral of them have been tolled since our happy meetings. In conclusion, I would add a quotation which I have before used from Bp. 'Beveridge. ''Some, perltaps, may \\'Onder why any one should thus trouble himRelf about so low and mean a subject as this is generally thought to be; but I think nothing mean or low that ha!h any relation to the Service of God and His ()hurch."-Bp.

BY THE REV. H. T. ELLACOMBE, M.A., F.A.S., RECTOR OF CLYST S. GEORGE, DEVON. My friend, the Rev. J. H. Sperling, Vicar of Westbourne, Sussex, a gentleman well known in London and Essex as an amateur architect of no mean ability, and in arte campanologicd doctissimus, lately, by invita­ tion, delivered a Lecture at the South Kensington Architectural Museum, on "Church Bells and their connection with Architecture," in. which he has ably forestalled me with remarks most pertinent to the subject, and with such as I had intended to begin the account I had been preparing, on the Church • bells in thP. towers of our county. He most kindly sent me a copy of his lecture, immediately after he had read it, with permisSion to adopt the whole, or any part, which I \llight t~ suitable to my purpose. From his valuable store-house of information, (filled from sources well known to every lover of campanology, but enriched by his own original remarks;) I have taken a great deal which I consider most valuable to our Association, and suitable to my present purpose. I am therefore most thankful to . Mr. Sperling for his kind assistance in so helping me m an Introduction to my Paper on the Church Bells of Devonshire. B 2 THE CHURCH BELLS OF DEVON. Campan2logy is a science which most appropriately holds a place in all Associations like our own, whose object is to develop and enunciate the close and inseparable connection of high art with the Catholick faith ; for no musical instrument has ever exerciRed so great an influence upon architecture as the Church bell. To it we owe the most striking external features of our Churches at home 1\nd abroad, whether in the varied groups of the many towered city, or the country spire pointing amidst the trees to the skies, and rearing itself heavenwards; or in the many different forms of cot and gable which crest the humbler village Church, or, rather, parochial Chapel. The bell tower has been called, the badge of a Ch~rch with parochial rights, and seems to have been so since the days of Athelstan, when the patronage of such a structure was one of the qualifications for the title of Thane.1 Fosbrooke ~ng.

Neighbourhood Development Plans were introduced by the 2011 Localism Act, to give local people more say about the scale and nature of development in their area, within the context of both strategic planning policy in the National Planning Policy Framework 2012, and local plans – in our case, the adopted East Devon Local Plan 2013-2031. The Uplyme Neighbourhood Plan relates to the whole of the Parish and includes a wide range of topics: housing, employment, community facilities, transport, and the built and natural environment. The Plan will run until 2031 to coincide with the end date of the Local Plan, but may need to be reviewed before then. The Plan has been drafted by local people in the Uplyme Neighbourhood Plan Group, following extensive community consultation and engagement over a period of years, followed by an examination by an independent Planning Inspector. We believe that the plan represents a broad consensus of local opinion. Chris James Chair Uplyme Parish Council & Neighbourhood Plan Group July 2017 Dedication This Plan is dedicated to the memory of Peter Roy Whiting, former Chairman of both the Parish Council and the Neighbourhood Plan Group. Without his encyclopaedic technical knowledge of planning and civil engineering, his puckish wit, enthusiasm and dedication, the project would have struggled in its formative stage. Peter – your presence is sadly missed.

The succession seemed, however,to be as above, and, if that be so, the beds below bed I are probably Bagshot Beds. "The pit at the lower level has been already noticed in our Proceedings; cj. H. W. Monckton and R. S. Herries 'On some Bagshot Pebble Beds and Pebble Gravel,' Proc. Ceol. Assoc., vol. xi, p. 13, at p. 22. The pit has been worked farther back, and the clay is now in consequence thicker. Less of the under­ lying sand is exposed than it was in June, 1888. "The casts of shells which occur in this sand were not abundant, but several were found by members of the party on a small heap of sand at the bottom of the pit." Similarly disturbed strata were again observed in the excavation for the new reservoir close by. A few minutes were then profitably spent in examining Fryerning Church, and its carved Twelfth Century font, etc. At the Spread Eagle a welcome tea awaited the party, which, after thanking the Director, returned by the 7.55 p.m. train to London.

Tavistock is a thriving market town adjoining the western edge of the Dartmoor National Park and was in 2004 voted the winner of a nationwide survey undertaken by the Council for the Protection of Rural England involving 120 other market towns.

Additional facilities include a hospital, a bustling Pannier Market and a full range of schools both State and Private. Indeed Tavistock can claim to have everything adding up to a quality of life which would be hard to rival.
