The following problems have been identified by the Environment Agency, South West Region: · Point source and diffuse pollution from nutrients · Unrestricted livestock access to the river · Increased cultivation of maize · Soil erosion · Bankside erosion · Waste management The Environment Agency South West Region are undertaking work to tackle these issues as part of the wider Cycleau Project, to develop and apply innovative best farming practices and deliver sustainable land management in the Axe and Char catchments. Cycleau is a trans- national project involving the rivers of South West England, Western France and Ireland funded by the EU North West Europe INTERREG IIIB programme – further information can be found at the project website http://www.cycleau.com (www1). As part of the Axe and Char project, Babtie Brown and Root (BBR) have been commissioned by the Environment Agency to undertake geomorphological studies of the Axe catchment and a section of the River Char downstream of the A35 roadbridge to the river mouth at Charmouth. The outputs from this geomorphological work are as follows: Catchment Fluvial Geomorphological Audit of the River Axe Report A – Method Description Report B – Detailed Geomorphological Survey of the Axe Catchment (this report) Report C – Catchment Geomorphological Action Plan Geomorphological Assessment of the River Char River Char Geomorphological Assessment This report (Report B - Detailed Geomorphological Survey of the Axe Catchment) is a technically based report aimed at rivers and fisheries managers with an appreciation of geomorphological issues. It is intended to provide detailed technical information regarding the findings of the Catchment Fluvial Geomorphological Audit. 1.2 Aims and Objectives The Catchment Fluvial Geomorphological Assessment of the Rivers Axe is intended to assist in the achievement of some key objectives of the Cycleau Project, which include: · To deliver Best Farming Practices · To ensure that the River Axe SAC meets favourable conservation status · To protect and improve habitats, species, landscape, archaeology and historic environment · To ensure appropriate management of bankside erosion within the catchment. BBR No: BWA 0013499 3 Rev R01 October 2004 ENVIRONMENT AGENCY Catchment Fluvial Geomorphological Audit of the Axe Catchment The specific objectives of this project are: 1. To provide a baseline data set, identifying the major geomorphological processes and features occurring along selected watercourses in the River Axe catchment. 2. To identify and report on the key areas of geomorphological activity, determine any important factors affecting this activity and to provide guidance on appropriate methods of control or management. 3. To identify any areas where restoring the natural geomorphology may improve the potential for habitat creation whilst reducing bankside erosion. 4. To provide information to inform the control of the development of in-river works such as outfalls, weirs, and flood defence structures, to ensure potentially adverse effects of these on the geomorphological processes are either avoided or minimised. In addition to informing the Cycleau Project, improved geomorphological baseline datasets will be of particular relevance to ecological appraisal, water resources and development control. Geomorphological information can be used to foster closer links between geomorphology and deliverance of a suitable flow regime through the Catchment Abstraction Management Strategy (CAMS) process. The data can also be used to inform the control of the development of in-river works such as outfalls, weirs and flood defence structures to ensure that potentially adverse effects on geomorphological processes are either avoided or minimised. 1.3 Detailed Geomorphological Survey - User Guide The detailed geomorphological survey is intended to achieve objective 1) and the first part of objective 2) of the “Catchment Fluvial Geomorphological Audit of

Goodmans House & Furley Cottages are on “Casehayes Lane” and the postcode is EX13 7TU. Although there are many different ways of getting here, there are some roads in the local area which are only suitable for agricultural vehicles, so our directions offer the most practical and straightforward route. If you are arriving via the A30 – your SatNav may suggest a turn left off the road after James Lane or the Ferne Animal Sanctuary. This lane is signed to Godworthy Farm. Don’t. Just before the junction at Furley, your SatNav may suggest a sharp left turn into a very narrow lane. Again don’t. It may be a good idea to check the route on Google Maps and familiarise yourself where we are located prior to setting off. Depending on the time of year, the lanes can seem narrower than they actually are, as the farmers are not permitted to cut the hedges at certain times of year. Be prepared to reverse if you encounter farm vehicles as some are unable to reverse. Take your time, we live at a different pace here and no one will rush you. You may encounter wildlife on the lanes, again take your time they will go in the hedges, eventually! From the Midlands and the North.

Here the north-eastern angle of Yarcombe parish, in Devon, is met by the three Somerset parishes of Combe St. Nicholas, Buckland St. Mary, and Otterford. Of the two branches, the smaller rises immediately under the south-west angle of Neroche Castle, flowing south through the parish of Buck- land. The larger rivulet, coming down from a point in the Blackdown Hills further west, divides Buckland St. Mary from Otterford. The Yarty river, still flowing south, falls into the Devonshire Axe below Axminster. Its ancient name, AS arta, being in- flected in the genitive to AEartan, gave its name to the valley which the stream has helped to form—AEartaneumb. This, in Domesday, appears as Herticome, was afterwards varied to Yerticombe, and is now Yarcombe. Ne<w Series , Vol. Fill., 1882, Part II. A ) 2 Papers , &c. From Keats’ Mills tlie county boundary runs nearly due west over Brown Down, between Otterford on tbe north and Yarcombe on the south, till it reaches a ford on another river, the Otter, at a point where the south-western angle of Otterford parish, in Somerset, is bounded on the south, south-west, and west by the Devonshire parishes of Yarcombe, Upottery, and Church Stanton.
