The main aim of the Stonehouse Voice is to celebrate all of the good stu going on from art, music and creativity to local business and social enterprise and encourage you to report and write about them. We’ll print the stories about us that most other media ignore. In fact, we’re starting a local media revolution because our stories and features are written for our community, by people who live among us. At rst, we will be appearing twice a year, but the plan is that we’ll eventually be published quarterly, and monthly after that. And as we go along, we’ll transfer the ownership of the Voice to yourselves, the community, in the form of a non-pro t Community Bene t Society. So, we’re on the lookout for a team of community journalists and designers, who live on our patch and would like to celebrate it.

    No. 9 Welcome to the quarterly newsletter of the WRRC. The September 2008 WRRC is the organisation responsible for representing the W R R C region at a national level to the ARA, and for supporting the WEST REGIONAL ROWING COUNCIL development of rowing across Cornwall and Devon. Paralympic Handover On Wednesday 17th September pupils from eight schools across Devon got together to celebrate the Paralympic Handover in style at the YMCA in Plymouth. Over 100 pupils took to the 18 rowing machines in a relay to notch up the target of 147,000 metres. The children worked so well that this target was raised to 200,000 metres halfway l l l through the event, and even this higher target was smashed as i i i the final metres rowed totalled 252,000! c c c Non-disabled & disabled pupils, sports leaders, sports develop- n n n ment officers, partnership development managers and repre- sentatives from Active Devon, Amateur Rowing Association u u u (ARA), English Federation Disability Sport (EFDS), Sport England, Team South West and Team Devon all proved that sporting success is achieved when a team works effectively together. o o o In addition to celebrating the Paralympic Handover of the games, from Beijing to London, the event C C C marked the signing of a Partnership Charter between the ARA and the EFDS.

This information has been produced by the Dartmoor National Park Authority in conjunction with Dartmoor For All, and is designed to help and encourage those who are disabled, less mobile or have young children, to relax, unwind and enjoy the peace and quiet of the beautiful countryside in the Dartmoor area. This information will help you to make the right choices for your day out. Nearly half of Dartmoor is registered common land. Under the Dartmoor Commons Act 1985, a right of access was created for persons on foot or horseback. This right extends to those using wheelchairs, powered wheelchairs and mobility scooters, although one should be aware that the natural terrain and gradients may curb access in practice. Common land and other areas of 'access land' are marked on the Ordnance Survey (OS) map, Outdoor Leisure 28.

  • Trojans at Totnes and Giants on the Hoe: Geoffrey of Monmouth, Historical Fiction and Geographical Reality
    Rep. Trans. Devon. Ass. Advmt Sci., 148, 89−130 © The Devonshire Association, June 2016 (Figures 1–8) Trojans at Totnes and Giants on the Hoe: Geoffrey of Monmouth, Historical Fiction and Geographical Reality John Clark MA, FSA, FMA Curator Emeritus, Museum of London, and Honorary Reader, University College London Institute of Archaeology Geoffrey of Monmouth’s largely fi ctional History of the Kings of Britain, written in the 1130s, set the landing place of his legendary Trojan colonists of Britain with their leader Brutus on ‘the coast of Totnes’ – or rather, on ‘the Totnesian coast’. This paper considers, in the context of Geoffrey’s own time and the local topography, what he meant by this phrase, which may refl ect the authority the Norman lords of Totnes held over the River Dart or more widely in the south of Devon. We speculate about the location of ‘Goemagot’s Leap’, the place where Brutus’s comrade Corineus hurled the giant Goemagot or Gogmagog to his death, and consider the giant fi gure ‘Gogmagog’ carved in the turf of Plymouth Hoe, the discovery of ‘giants’ bones’ in the seventeenth century, and the possible signifi cance of Salcombe’s red-stained rocks. THE TROJANS – AND OTHERS – IN DEVON Geoffrey of Monmouth’s Historia Regum Britanniae (History of the Kings of Britain) was completed in about 1136, and quickly became, in medieval terms, a best-seller. To all appearance it comprised what ear- lier English historians had said did not exist – a detailed history of 89 DDTRTR 1148.indb48.indb 8899 004/01/174/01/17 111:131:13 AAMM 90 Trojans at Totnes Britain and its people from their beginnings right up to the decisive vic- tory of the invading Anglo-Saxons in the seventh century AD.
