  • Draft Charmouth Neighbourhood Plan
    Charmouth Parish Draft Neighbourhood Plan 2021 – 2035 May 2021 Submission Draft Prepared by the Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group on behalf of Charmouth Parish Council Executive Summary What this Plan does… This Neighbourhood Plan sets out planning policies for Charmouth Parish. It will be used by Dorset Council when making decisions on planning applications. It doesn’t cover every issue that could occur as a planning consideration, but it does strengthen the approach taken in the Local Plan by providing more detail of specific issues in some key areas that will make the planning system work better for Charmouth. This Plan reflects the responses received from consultation which we have used to develop and shape the policies. We thought it would be useful to summarise, very briefly, what some of the main policies are and where we expect our Neighbourhood Plan to make a real difference… VISION AND OBJECTIVES The Vision and Objectives for the Plan, on which the policies have been developed, include the development of small scale housing; protecting the village’s unique characteristics; supporting local businesses and amenities; continuing to attract tourists and visitors and enhancing, where possible, the quality of life for residents. In short, the Plan reflects a balance between encouraging moderate growth and development whilst protecting the uniqueness of our village and its natural environment. See Table 2.1 for more information We have also identified a range of Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats. See Table 2.2 for more information HERITAGE AND HISTORY The Parish has many historical buildings many of which are Listed, and there is a sizeable Conservation Area.

  • Mary Anning (1799 – 1847) Was One of the First Fossil Collectors
    Geology Section: history, interests and the importance of Devon‟s geology Malcolm Hart [Vice-Chair Geology Section] School of Geography, Earth & Environmental Sciences, University of Plymouth Devonshire Association, Forum, Sidmouth, March 2020 Slides: 3 – 13 South-West England people; 14 – 25 Our northward migration; 24 – 33 Climate change: a modern problem; 34 – 50 Our geoscience heritage: Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site and the English Riviera UNESCO Global Geopark; 51 – 53 Summary and perspectives When we look at the natural landscape it can appear almost un- changing – even in the course of a life- time. William Smith (1769–1839) was a practical engineer, who used geology in an applied way. He recognised that the fossils he found could indicate the „stratigraphy‟ of the rocks that his work encountered. His map was produced in 1815. Images © Geological Society of London Mary Anning (1799 – 1847) was one of the first fossil collectors. At the time the area was being quarried, though features such as the „ammonite pavement‟ were left for science. Image © Geological Society of London Images © National Museum, Wales Sir Henry De La Beche (1796‒1855) was an extraordinary individual. He wrote on the geology of Devon, Cornwall and Somerset, while living in Lyme Regis. He studied the local geology and created, in Duria Antiquior (a more ancient Dorset) the first palaeoecological reconstruction. He was often ridiculed for this! He was also the first Director of the British Geological Survey. His suggestion, in 1839, that the rocks of Devonshire and Cornwall were „distinctive‟ led to the creation of the Devonian System in 1840.

  • The 'Red Coast'
    The ‘Red Coast’ - Exmouth to Sidmouth Place To Walk Location & Access: The route is described from Exmouth to Sidmouth, but could be reversed. Exmouth can be reached via A376 road from Exeter. There is also a regular train link from Exeter Central Station and a regular bus service (number 57) from Exeter. There is plenty of parking in the town of Exmouth, and this walk begins at the car park close to the sea front to east of town - past the Maer recreation ground, and by the lifeboat station at GR SY0121 8000. At the completion of the walk, a return bus (number 57) is available from Sidmouth. Hern Point Rock, Ladram Bay Key Geography: Stunning section of the South West Coast Path - part of the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site. SSSI, Triassic geology, spits, steep cliffs, coastal erosion, landslips, sea stacks. Description: This walk of 12.5 miles (20 km) covers a stunning section of the 95 miles Jurassic Coast, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its geology includes Permian and Triassic rocks overlain in part by rocks from the Cretaceous Period. It is informally known as the ‘Red Coast’ due to the colour of the cliffs. From the car park, there is a brief moment to admire the sandy beach of Exmouth before making for the cliffs at eastern end of esplanade. Here, the cliffs of Rodney Point give the first decent view of the red geology. From here, the path climbs to Orcombe Point, where it is possible to stop and take a look at the geoneedle, a monument that marks the start of the Jurassic Coast.

  • I Think It a Very Good Idea to Introduce a Cafe and Perhaps Other Mobile Outlets at the Space at Orcombe Point
    It should be dog friendly. Recommend we look at the Venus Beach cafe at Bigbury and Blackpool Sands. You should look at the cafe in Swanage at the western end of the promenade near the pier. Starting as a temporary building it has developed into something more permanent with some hard fixed seating based on the kiosk principle with serving hatches. They sell seafood snacks in small plastic dishes with white wine or beer. There are ample bins for disposal of dishes. They do not use glass in case of breakages in a seaside environment. I think it a very good idea to introduce a cafe and perhaps other mobile outlets at the space at Orcombe Point. A cafe selling good quality hot drinks (Yorkshire tea, real coffee, hot chocolate), cold drinks, sandwiches/paninis, home-made cakes and ice cream, alongside lavatory/washing facilities. Another outlet alongside could perhaps sell good quality hot snacks. Not too much to ask! It would be nice to see a cafe/restaurant on similar lines to The Longboat at Budleigh But in the short term we do need to have some refreshment outlet for the summer. Very good to read the piece in relation to the desire to see Café facilities at Orcombe Point. It's not clear from the article if the council are building and then letting or whether you are expecting an owner to come forward with capital monies? Opening up debate with the public is always welcome however they aren't spending their own money and I suspect the wish list will be quite lengthy! There may be a mismatch between the wants of the public and the potential for an individual to get a return on their investment if the expectations are too great to meet? I'm very positive about our town and the visitor experience so if I can help I would be more than willing to do so.

  • Jurassic Coast Weekend
    UK Jurassic Coast Weekend Activity: Trek Grade: (Demanding) Duration: 3 days Stretching 95 miles between Old Harry Rocks in Dorset, to Orcombe Point in East Devon, the Jurassic Coast – England’s first Natural World Heritage Site – is the most geologically diverse coastline in the world. The exposed cliff sections allow you to look back through 185 million years of time; dinosaur remains have been found here, and it’s a fossil-hunter’s paradise. With a more recent history of mining, shipwrecks and smuggling, this is a fascinating stretch of coastline. We take in some of its most spectacular scenery, from the renowned natural stone archway of Durdle Door to the beautiful circular Lulworth Cove, as we continually climb and descend the steep hills of the Jurassic Coast. We camp at a lovely campsite a short distance from our route. DETAILED ITINERARY Day 1: Meet Campsite We meet at our campsite near Wool for a trek briefing, and get to know the rest of the group over dinner and an evening in camp. Transport will be arranged to pick you up from Wool railway station if required. Day 2: Durlston Head – Kimmeridge After a good breakfast, we transfer (approx. 30 mins) to Durlston Head, a Country Park on the cliffs above Swanage. Setting off, we can pause at the impressive Globe, an enormous limestone sphere engraved with an 1880s world map. There are fabulous views from the Globe, which accompany us as we walk west along the hilly coastline. This area was long used for mining famous Purbeck Marble and Portland Stone, which is evident from the old quarries other remains we pass.

  • Case Studies
    6. South-West Heritage Sites - Case Studies 6.1. Identification of heritage sites currently or potentially at risk The task of identifying potential coastal heritage sites in Dorset, Devon, Cornwall and Somerset involved three stages. The first of these was the development of a long list of possible sites of interest; these were gathered from a range of sources. First, from studies and investigations by English Heritage and Historic England, such as the ‘South West Heritage At Risk’ report (Historic England, 20151), the Rapid Coastal Zone Assessments (RCZAS) that have been undertaken to date or are being progressed across the study area, the second round of Shoreline Management Plans, and discussions with heritage officers and coastal engineers within the local authorities and coastal groups, together with many other consultees. It is important also to note that much of the south-west coast may have undiscovered archaeological/heritage potential and, therefore, future changes to the coast are likely to expose further sites of great interest. In parallel, a further review was made of reports relating to coastal erosion, cliff falls, landslides and flooding in the south-west through internet searches and newspaper and scientific article reviews. As a result of this wide-ranging research, a list of one hundred and seventy-six potential locations, comprising either coastal frontages or individual sites, was compiled. The second stage involved a review of these sites in order to establish those locations, which were not only affected by coastal risks, but also offered the best range of examples of heritage assets that might be affected by coastal change.

  • Dorset and East Devon Coast World Heritage Site Partnership Plan Development and Public Consultation
    PTE/19/28 East Devon Locality (County) Committee 18 July 2019 Dorset and East Devon Coast World Heritage Site Partnership Plan Development and Public Consultation Joint Report of the Jurassic Coast Trust and the DCC Head of Planning, Transportation and Environment Please note that the following recommendations are subject to consideration and determination by the Committee before taking effect. Recommendation: It is recommended that the Committee: (a) Approves the process and timetable for undertaking the WHS Partnership Plan development and consultation; (b) endorses the draft policy framework presented in Appendix I for inclusion within the Consultation Draft of the new Partnership Plan 2020-2025 and delegates to officers the final agreement of any outstanding detailed issues and content for the document; (c) notes that the final version of the new Partnership Plan will be adopted through delegated cabinet member decision in late 2019 / early 2020 following public consultation. 1. Background The East Devon Coast between Orcombe Point and Lyme Regis forms part of the Dorset and East Devon Coast World Heritage Site (WHS), otherwise known as The Jurassic Coast. The site management plan, updated every six years, demonstrates to UNESCO that this globally significant asset is being managed in a way that meets the UK Government’s obligations to the World Heritage Convention. The forthcoming iteration of the management plan will be presented as a ‘Partnership Plan’. The Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) is the lead government department on World Heritage issues and is responsible for ensuring that the UK, as a State Party, fulfils its obligations under the World Heritage Convention.
