She’s an accomplished gymnast and drama buff. She says she enjoys meeting people both socially and at work and looks forward immensely to carrying out the duties that go with the title of being our Parish ambassador, with confidence and a generous portion of good humour. Her runner up – in what the judges, Chris Le Cornu, Lynne Hine and Sue Neil, described as an extremely close decision - was Sophia de Sousa. A 16-year-old student at Beaulieu, reading Biology, Chemistry, English Literature and Psychology, Sophia’s ambition is to study for the medical profession. An accomplished communicator, she is also a globe-trotter with eyes on life in the United States, though, for the present, she relishes the quiet atmosphere of the lanes and countryside of her native St Clement. Ebony bids farewell So it was time for Ebony Troy to hand over her sash and tiara to much acclaim from parishioners who have witnessed her busy and committed year as Miss St Clement.

I’m not so sure it could be called a ‘highlight’ given the weather and the power cut that threatened to spoil the event even before it began. Even so, the re-enactment in Liberation Square was certainly memorable. It says much for the Jersey people who were there, and those conducting and involved in the service, that we were not put off and despite all the difficulties we celebrated the 71st anniversary of the most important day in our recent history in fine style. As always, there was great turnout from our Parish and I thank Julie, Mary, Kay and Chris for ensuring that everyone was where they should be on time and returned safely after the event. A warm welcome to Lucie Hosking in her role as Parish ambassador in 2016 and very many thanks to Ebony Troy who carried out her duties as Miss St Clement with much grace and commitment throughout 2015. I am very pleased that our Chef de Police, Centenier Eddie Caldeira, was re-elected unopposed at a recent Electoral Assembly. Eddie is a first class Honorary Police Officer, having served the Parish since November 2003 and will receive the Queen’s Long Service and Meritorious Conduct medal later this year. Very well deserved. His colleague, Centenier Peter Ward received this medal in 2015, but sadly he has now been forced to retire from the Honorary Police on health grounds. We thank Peter for the wonderful service he has given to the Parish and parishioners and wish him well in his retirement, and, more, importantly, a quick return to full health. We were all shocked to learn of the sudden death of Constable’s Officer Wayne Lewis at the beginning of May. Wayne was an excellent officer, always willing and able with a courteous and positive disposition. We miss him very much and our thoughts are with his family and partner, Betty. Looking ahead, please try to keep the evening of Tuesday 28 June free as that is the date of the Parish Assembly to receive the Parish accounts for the financial year just past, receive and approve the estimates for the current financial year and set the Parish rate. It’s an important event as it gives parishioners the opportunity to review the running of Parish affairs.

  • The Jersey Heritage Answersheet
    THE JERSEY HERITAGE Monuments Quiz ANSWERSHEET 1 Seymour Tower, Grouville Seymour Tower was built in 1782, 1¼ miles offshore in the south-east corner of the Island. Jersey’s huge tidal range means that the tower occupies the far point which dries out at low tide and was therefore a possible landing place for invading troops. The tower is defended by musket loopholes in the walls and a gun battery at its base. It could also provide early warning of any impending attack to sentries posted along the shore. 2 Faldouet Dolmen, St Martin This megalithic monument is also known as La Pouquelaye de Faldouët - pouquelaye meaning ‘fairy stones’ in Jersey. It is a passage grave built in the middle Neolithic period, around 4000 BC, the main stones transported here from a variety of places up to three miles away. Human remains were found here along with finds such as pottery vessels and polished stone axes. 3 Cold War Bunker, St Helier A German World War II bunker adapted for use during the Cold War as Jersey’s Civil Emergency Centre and Nuclear Monitoring Station. The building includes a large operations room and BBC studio. 4 Statue of King George V in Howard Davis Park Bronze statue of King George V wearing the robes of the Sovereign of the Garter. Watchtower, La Coupe Point, St Martin 5 On the highest point of the headland is a small watchtower built in the early 19th century and used by the Royal Navy as a lookout post during the Napoleonic wars. It is sturdily constructed of mixed stone rubble with a circular plan and domed top in brick.

  • Review of Birds in the Channel Islands, 1951-80 Roger Long
    Review of birds in the Channel Islands, 1951-80 Roger Long ecords and observations on the flora and fauna in the Channel Islands Rare treated with confusing arbitrariness by British naturalists in the various branches of natural history. Botanists include the islands as part of the British Isles, mammalogists do not, and several subdivisions of entomo• logists adopt differing treatments. The BOU lists and records have always excluded the Channel Islands, but The Atlas of Breeding Birds in Britain and Ireland (1976) included them, as do all the other distribution mapping schemes currently being prepared by the Biological Records Centre at Monks Wood Experimental Station, Huntingdon. The most notable occurrences of rarities have been published in British Birds, and this review has been compiled so that the other, less spectacular—but possibly more significant—observations are available as a complement to the British and Irish records. The late Roderick Dobson, an English naturalist resident in Jersey between 1935 and 1948 and from 1958 to his death in 1979, was the author of the invaluable Birds of the Channel Islands (1952). In this, he brought together the results of his meticulous fieldwork in all the islands, and his critical interpretation of every record—published or private—that he was able to unearth, fortunately just before the turmoil of the years of German Occupation (1940-45) dispersed much of the material, perhaps for ever. I concern myself here chiefly with the changes recorded during the approxi• mately 30 years since Dobson's record closed. Species considered to have shown little change in status over those years are not listed.

Life was so very different then, from now, and it is difficult for us to imagine what life was really like for the children and adults living at that time.

The Parish was asked to help Grouville with patrolling Liberation Stories the coast looking for marauders and in 1690 both parishes were ordered to build a guardhouse at La Rocque.

  • Jersey & Guernsey Law Review
    Jersey & Guernsey Law Review – June 2010 THE CUSTOMARY LAW IN RELATION TO THE FORESHORE (2) Richard Falle and John Kelleher The second part of an extended article on the customary law in relation to the foreshore. The first part of the article (June 2008 edition) focussed on the connection between continental Normandy and the Islands, through their shared custom, in relation to the law as to the foreshore. It argued that according to the custom the foreshore was presumed to be parcel of the adjacent terra firma and accordingly parcel of a maritime fief. It concluded that the Duke of Normandy had no general claim to the foreshore and, barring certain limited ducal privileges, it formed part of the seigneurial regime and its ownership lay in private hands. The second article focuses on custom and practice in Jersey from 1204 to the present day to illustrate the law and use of the foreshore. The article reviews a range of evidence from the records of individual fiefs, 13th century enquiries undertaken in Jersey on behalf of the Crown, disputes over the foreshore, the views of customary writers and use of the foreshore ranging from varech, vraic, essiage, pescheries and the collection of salt. It also examines the changing attitude of the Crown to ownership of foreshore in Jersey and the genesis of the Crown’s claim to it. It concludes with the case of Les Pas Holdings Ltd and its claim to a private title in a significant part of the St. Helier seafront. Introduction 1 In the first part of this article we demonstrated a close connection between continental Normandy and the Islands through their shared custom.1 According to that custom the foreshore was presumed to be parcel of the adjacent terra firma and accordingly parcel of the maritime fief.
