    9 IRetHseO Ht0t of tfce T6ttO0 of Somerset BY THE REV. MURRAY A. MATHEW, M.A., F.L.S. Vicar of Buckland Dinham, Member of the British Ornitho- logists' Union, and one of the authors of" The Birds of DevonT WHEN Mr. Cecil Smith published his Birds of Somerset, in 1869, he was able to record but 217 species, to which he subsequently added ten others in a list contributed by him to Vol. xvi of the Transactions of the Somerset Archaaological and Natural History Society (for 1870), thus bringing the total number of birds for Somerset to 227. But even this number appears inadequate to repre- sent the Ornis of so large a county as Somerset, when it is compared with the lists which have been made out for the adjoining counties. Thus for Wiltshire, a county which comes far behind Somerset in geographical importance, as it possesses no coast line, the Rev. A. Smith was able to . C. enumerate 235 species ; in Dorsetshire, Col. Mansel-Pleydell, as was to be expected, had a fuller list, numbering 254 species, to which we are able to add three others, thus bringing the Dorsetshire county birds to a total of 257 ; while for Devon- shire, which has a sea frontage both on the north and south, as many as 300 species can be claimed.

    Rights of Way Improvement Plan 2 WWW.SOMERSET.GOV.UK WELCOME TO THE 2ND SOMERSET RIGHTS OF WAY IMPROVEMENT PLAN Public Rights of Way are more than a valuable recreational resource - they are also an important asset in terms of the rural economy, tourism, sustainable transport, social inclusion and health and well being. The public rights of way network is key to enabling residents and visitors alike to access services and enjoy the beauty of Somerset’s diverse natural and built environment. Over the next few years, the focus is going to be chiefly on performing our statutory duties. However, where resources allow we will strive to implement the key priority areas of this 2nd Improvement Plan and make Somerset a place and a destination for enjoyable walking, riding and cycling.

    Brompton Regis Brushford Dulverton Dulverton Skilgate Benefice Upton Withiel Florey Profile Page 1 of 26 THE BENEFICE OF DULVERTON, BRUSHFORD, BROMPTON REGIS WITH WITHIEL FLOREY, UPTON AND SKILGATE Welcome. We are a group of five rural parishes and six churches located on the south-eastern edge of Exmoor and a part of the Exmoor Deanery in the Diocese of Bath and Wells. Each parish has its own character. Since the last vacancy, we have become aware of the advantages and pleasures of working together. So we have started our journey and we are looking for somebody to walk alongside us on that road. Our vision is ★ To have a benefice united in the Spirit and led by an active and enthusiastic Rector, supported by a strong team of committed Christians. ★ To expand and broaden our outreach to further integrate and strengthen the church presence in our communities. ★ To serve all, taking our community to where God is leading us and seeing God in all whom we meet. ★ To seek ways of telling God’s story in new places in both traditional and fresh forms. ★ To value spaces and places in our worship for prayer and stillness. We can offer you the support of an enthusiastic ministry team, experienced lay worship leaders and the chance to live in an attractive rural part of the country. If these objectives appeal to you we would love to hear from you. Page 2 of 26 In this Profile: The benefice and worship sections focus on themes common to all parishes. Finance, fundraising and events are covered in the parish sections.
