All other events we are providing within Blackmore Gardens and the Ham are free with donations to collectors encouraged. All paid for events are taking place in the open air within Blackmore Gardens. For Blackmore Gardens please note: • you will need to bring your own portable seating, rug, be prepared to stand or sit on the grass; • there will be designated areas for the placement of seats in order to ensure good sightlines for all; • after the end of the afternoon entertainment at 1730 you will be asked to fully vacate the concert arena, along with all your belongings, whilst we prepare for the evening concert; • no pop-up tents, gazebos, umbrellas or anything that will affect sightlines can be put up within the concert arena; • from Saturday everyone will be required to vacate the Gardens 1845-1900 whilst we reset for the evening concert; • no dogs allowed in the Gardens during the Festival; • no smoking allowed within the Gardens during the Festival.

  • Site Improvement Plan Sidmouth to West Bay
    Improvement Programme for England's Natura 2000 Sites (IPENS) Planning for the Future Site Improvement Plan Sidmouth to West Bay Site Improvement Plans (SIPs) have been developed for each Natura 2000 site in England as part of the Improvement Programme for England's Natura 2000 sites (IPENS). Natura 2000 sites is the combined term for sites designated as Special Areas of Conservation (SAC) and Special Protected Areas (SPA). This work has been financially supported by LIFE, a financial instrument of the European Community. The plan provides a high level overview of the issues (both current and predicted) affecting the condition of the Natura 2000 features on the site(s) and outlines the priority measures required to improve the condition of the features. It does not cover issues where remedial actions are already in place or ongoing management activities which are required for maintenance. The SIP consists of three parts: a Summary table, which sets out the priority Issues and Measures; a detailed Actions table, which sets out who needs to do what, when and how much it is estimated to cost; and a set of tables containing contextual information and links. Once this current programme ends, it is anticipated that Natural England and others, working with landowners and managers, will all play a role in delivering the priority measures to improve the condition of the features on these sites. The SIPs are based on Natural England's current evidence and knowledge. The SIPs are not legal documents, they are live documents that will be updated to reflect changes in our evidence/knowledge and as actions get underway.

  • 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.

All rights reserved. Permission Number Defra 012012.003. Contains Ordnance Survey Licence No. 100049981 and UK Hydrographic Office data. © Marine Management Organisation. Licence No EK001-201188. MCA 2: Lyme Bay (East) Overall cShnaarpaschteort Key Characteristics Description Visual Resource Mapping Location and boundaries This Marine Character Area (MCA) stretches from Branscombe in the west to the beginning of the causeway linking Weymouth with the Isle of Portland to the south-east. The western boundary marks the transition from Cretaceous chalk and limestone (exposed at Beer Head) to the characteristic Triassic red sandstone associated with the coastline around Sidmouth (MCA 1). This transition is broadly followed offshore, extending to a maximum distance of approximately 36 kilometres (19 nautical miles) from the coast and bathymetry of 57 metres. The offshore boundary is largely consistent with the limits of the inshore marine plan area, also following the 50 metre contour line in parts (shown on the Admiralty Charts) to capture the full extent of waters associated with the Bay. The eastern MCA boundary marks the transition to seas influenced by the strong tides of the Portland Race (MCA 3). Please note that the MCA boundaries represent broad zones of transition (not immediate breaks in character). Natural, visual, cultural and socio- economic relationships between adjacent MCAs play a key role in shaping overall character. Therefore individual MCAs should not be considered in isolation. This MCA is particularly related to MCA 1 (Lyme Bay (West)); together providing a description of the expansive bay as a whole.
