  • Saunton’S Shore Introduction
    Saunton’s Shore Introduction Map ref. SS446378 Saunton Sands extends for over 3 miles from Saunton Down to the mouth of the Taw/Torridge Estuary almost due south. Saunton Sands is one of the most idyllically situated beaches in the country. A stunning 3 mile stretch of golden sand, it has some of the best surf in the country, and as a backdrop has the dunes of Braunton Burrows, the heart of North Devon’s Biosphere Reserve. As a place of nature Saunton is second to none. The dunes and cliffs both carry Site of Special Scientific Interest designations and together support a wealth of plants and wildlife Saunton Sands is already well known as a holiday beach and a surfing venue. The main focus of this profile will be the natural history, particularly of the rocky shore, which has its own fascinating story to tell. But first – the familiar The beach, the dunes, the surrounding hills are all part of the Christie Estate where the public are welcome provided that they respect the environment. Holiday makers enjoy facilities which are based around the car park - the café, and The Sands, a balconied café restaurant, and adjoining showers and toilet facilities. The uncompromising whiteness of the Saunton Sands Hotel creates an iconic landmark visible for miles. The view from the Saunton Down footpath behind reveals the Edwardian villa around which the Hotel was built. Man-made The impact of the beach buildings is more muted against the open skies and the vast stretch of sand. Beach huts (far right) and deck chairs are rented out from the building on the right, which only just withstands the waves.

  • D-Day Sixty Years On
    by Roger J C Thomas Between midnight on 6 June (D-Day) and 30 June 1944, over 850,000 men landed on the invasion beachheads of Normandy, together with nearly 150,000 vehicles and 570,000 tons of supplies. Assembled in camps and transit areas (known as 'sausages') over the preceding months, this force was despatched from sites along Britain's coast-line, from East Anglia to South Wales. Some of these sites remain as tangible reminders of the scale of the Operation, and the lives of those involved, many of whom did not return from the battlefields of France. Sixty years on, English Heritage and the National Trust along with private museums are presenting some of these monuments, along with artefacts and historical documents, as a significant part of Britain's cultural heritage. Details of a few of the more accessible sites are included in this leaflet. Preparations for D-Day: Winston Churchill first thought of invading German- American aircraft were occupied Europe as early as 1940, while Britain was brought ashore, placed on fighting for her sovereignty in the Battle of Britain.

A major initiative is the commitment to produce Catchment Management Plans setting out the Authority’s vision for realising the potential of each local water environment. An important stage in the production of the plans is a period of public consultation. The NRA is keen to draw on the expertise and interest of the communities involved. This plan, for consultation in the south west, is one of three plans covering the Taw/Torridge Catchment. The NRA looks forward to receiving comments on the attached draft. A final plan will then be produced with an agreed action programme for the future protection and enhancement of this important catchment.
