    College of Arms Chester Herald Queen Victoria Street London EC4V 4BT Stover School Newton Abbot Devon 1Q12 6QG 23 November 2004 Dear Sir., I must apologise for the delay in following up our correspondence of July, concerning the Armorial Bearings of the Tempter family of Stover, of which you sent me two illustrations. The first shows the Arms carved on a chimneypiece: in this example, the Tempter coat impales the device of a parrot (representing the Parlby family), with the Templer Crest above. The other example, the bookplate of George Templer, shows the Templer coat impaling Arms of two bars and a canton (representing the Paul family), again with the Templer Crest. The necessary research has now been carried out and I am able to send my report. TEMPLER of Stover: Armorial Bearings were granted on 3 May 1763 to James Templer of Stowver [sic] Lodge. co. Devon, esquire, son of Thomas Templer late of Exeter, gentleman, deceased. The text recited that the grantee ‘and his Family for many years have borne a Coat of Arms and Crest’, but since these had not been found on official record at the College of Arms, a new grant was made to James Templer and his male-line descendants [College of Arms ms Grants 10, p. 475]. The Arms were blazoned: Quarterly Azure and Gules the Perspective of an Antique Temple Argent on the Pinnacle and exterior Battlements a Cross Or in the first quarter an Eagle displayed and in the second a Stag trippant reguardant of the Last. This indicates that the background is divided into four, the upper left and tower right quarters being blue, the upper right and lower left quarters red.

    local environment agency plan RIVER TEIGN CONSULTATION REPORT MARCH 1997 The River Teign Local Environment Agency Plan (LEAP) aims to promote integrated environmental management of this important area of Devon. It seeks to develop partnerships with a wide range of organisations and individuals who have a role to play in the management of the River Teign and Torbay Streams. This plan embodies the Agency’s commitment to realise improvements to the environment. An important stage in the production of the plans is a period of public consultation. This Consultation Report is being circulated widely both within and outside of the catchment and we are keen to draw on the expertise and interests of the local communities involved. Please comment - your views are important, even if it is to say that you think particular issues are necessary or that you support the plan and its objectives. Following on from the Consultation Report an Action Plan will be produced with an agreed programme for the future protection and enhancement of this much loved area. We will use these Plans to ensure that improvements in the local environment are achieved and that good progress is made towards the vision. VAA-£.r>------- GEOFF BATEMAN Area Manager (Devon) Environment -Au^ncy Information Centre Your Views We hope that this report will be read by everyone who has an interest in the environment of the River Teign Catchment. Your views will help us finalise the Action Plan. Have we identified all the problems in the catchment? If not, we would like to know. Are there any issues which you would like to highlight? Please fill in the questionnaire provided and send your comments by 31st May 1997 to: Richard Parker Environment Planner - Devon Area Manley House , Kestrel Way EXETER Devon EX2 7LQ We will not republish this Consultation Report.

  • Newton's Place Museum Design Brief
    Newton’s Place Museum Design Brief Dear Designer, Following a successful application to the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF), the Newton’s Place project is now underway. The £2.2m project involves conversion of a disused, Grade II listed, Victorian church near the centre of Newton Abbot (St Leonard’s Church in Wolborough Street), and relocation of the Town Council and Newton Abbot Town & GWR Museum to the new building. The vision of Newton’s Place is to create an accessible community space that celebrates heritage, town and community and challenges pre-conceived ideas of a museum and Town Council by operating in one welcoming environment. Building on our popular railway room, Lethbridge’s diving machine display and impressive 16th century carvings, we will be able to tell more stories of Newton Abbot and surrounding areas in enticing and innovative ways, bringing items from our stores for the first time and creating a people’s museum with community at its heart. The new dedicated museum space on the ground floor is approximately 2.5 times larger than the existing museum at 274m2, and we will have opportunities for additional displays throughout the whole building. This will include the community rooms which will be located on the upper floor, installed as part of the building conversion works, plus other communal areas. Draft architectural plans have been drawn up and are attached for your information. The plans show indicative positions for some of the main displays, but these are not fixed. In addition, the café, reception desk, ramp, glass wall near the entrance door, etc.
