Strategic Policies
Sustainability Appraisal - Mid Devon Local Plan Review Appendix 2: Sustainability Appraisal of Policies and Sites Strategic Policies Policy S1: Sustainable development priorities The Policy sets out the strategic priorities that will need to be achieved to deliver the vision and address key issues within Mid Devon to support sustainable communities. Sustainability Commentary Impact Mitigation Post objective Mitigation A) Protection of This policy has a significant positive contribution towards this objective. It +3 +3 the natural aims to conserve and enhance the natural environment and valued environment landscapes, including the Blackdown Hills AONB and National Parks on the periphery of the district. The policy aims to prevent unacceptable impact on the soil, air and water quality in the area and it also requires good design to conserve and enhance the natural environment and supports green infrastructure. The policy aspires to minimise impacts on biodiversity and geodiversity by recognising the wider benefits of ecosystems, delivering natural environment objectives, a net gain in biodiversity and by protecting International, European, National and local designated wildlife sites. It strengthens the existing policy which did not include a priority to conserve and enhance the natural environment or the objective to minimise the impact on biodiversity and geodiversity.

Sediment Yields in the Exe Basin: a Longer-Term Perspective
Sediment Dynamics and the Hydromorphology of Fluvial Systems (Proceedings of a symposium held in 12 Dundee, UK, July 2006). IAHS Publ. 306, 2006. Sediment yields in the Exe Basin: a longer-term perspective ANNA HARLOW, BRUCE WEBB & DES WALLING School of Geography, Archaeology and Earth Resources, Department of Geography, Amory Building, Rennes Drive, Exeter EX4 4RJ, UK [email protected] Abstract In the UK, fine sediment is viewed increasingly as a diffuse pollu- tant due to its role as a vector for the transport of potential contaminants, and in causing siltation, which may have adverse effects on river and estuarine habitats. There is a need, therefore, for river managers to have reliable information on sediment budgets in order to plan measures that will achieve “good” status under the EU Water Framework Directive. As part of a wider sediment-budget investigation in the EU-funded Cycleau Project, detailed records of fine sediment yield over the 10-year period from 1994–2003 have been analysed for the Exe Basin (1500 km2), a principal river system of southwest England. The longer-term average yields in the three major tributaries of the Exe Basin are discussed and results of monitoring of sediment loads at a site near the tidal limit over a one-year period confirm the importance of the River Exe in contributing sediment to the Estuary. Key words diffuse pollution; Exe Basin and estuary; longer-term behaviour; suspended sediment yields INTRODUCTION River systems provide a key pathway along which fine sediment (silt and clay particles of <63 µm in diameter) is transferred from the terrestrial to the estuarine environment. -

Here It Became Obvious That Hollacombe Crediton and Not Hollacombe Winkleigh Was Implied and Quite a Different Proposition
INTRODUCTION In 1876 Charles Worthy wrote “The History of the Manor and Church of Winkleigh”, the first and only book on Winkleigh to be published. Although this valuable little handbook contains many items of interest, not all of which fall within the range of its title, it is not a complete history and consequently fails to meet the requirements of the Devonshire Association. More than a dozen years ago a friend remarked to me that the monks of Crediton at one time used to walk to Hollacombe in order to preach at the ancient chapel of Hollacombe Barton. I was so surprised by this seemingly long trek that I made enquiries of the Devonshire Association. I was referred to the Tower Library of Crediton Church where it became obvious that Hollacombe Crediton and not Hollacombe Winkleigh was implied and quite a different proposition. Meantime the Honorary General Editor of the Parochial Section (Hugh R. Watkins Esq.) suggested that I should write a history of Winkleigh. The undertaking was accepted although it was clear that my only qualification for the task was a deep regard for the associations of the parish combined with a particularly intense love for the hamlet of Hollacombe. The result of this labour of love, produced in scanty spare time, and spread over the intervening years should be considered with these points in view. The proof of this present pudding will be measured by the ease with which the less immediately interesting parts can be assimilated by the general reader. Due care has been taken to verify all the subject matter. -
Postbridge Settlement Profile
Postbridge September 2019 This settlement profile has been prepared by Dartmoor National Park Authority to provide an overview of key information and issues for the settlement. It has been prepared in consultation with Parish/Town Councils and will be updated as necessary. Settlement Profile: Postbridge 1 Introduction Postbridge lies on the road between Two Bridges and Moretonhampstead, 5 miles east of Princetown. It commands a central geographical location within Dartmoor National Park. It is an important destination for visitors to Dartmoor. It hosts a National Park Visitor Centre, a large car park with room for coaches, and is the base for walks into moorland and forest and for viewing the well-known clapper bridge. There is also a youth hostel operating in nearby Bellever. The village name refers to the pack horse bridge (formed of large dimension clapper stones) over the East Dart River close to the main road. The cottages and inns that grew up around the bridge, along with ancient tenements nearby, came together to form the settlement and community. The turnpike road established in the 1790s, and the granite road bridge that was built in 1792, gave added importance to the settlement. There is a limited range of local services and facilities. However, there are pubs, a shop and a village hall, and visitor patronage helps support what is currently on offer Settlement Profile: Postbridge 2 Demographics A summary of key population statistics Age Profile (Census 2011, defined by best-fit Output Area*) Settlement comparison (Census 2011*) -
2020 Paignton
GUIDE 1 Welcome to the 2020 NOPS Kit Kat Tour Torbay is a large bay on Devon’s south coast. Overlooking its clear blue waters from their vantage points along the bay are three towns: Paignton, Torquay and Brixham. The bays ancient flood plain ends where it meets the steep hills of the South Hams. These hills act as suntrap, allowing the bay to luxuriate in its own warm microclimate. It is the bays golden sands and rare propensity for fine weather that has led to the bay and its seaside towns being named the English Riviera. Dartmoor National Park is a wild place with open moorlands and deep river valleys, a rich history and rare wildlife, making is a unique place and a great contrast to Torbay in terms of photographic subjects. The locations listed in the guide have been selected as popular areas to photograph. I have tried to be accurate with the postcodes but as many locations are rural, they are an approximation. They are not intended as an itinerary but as a starting point for a trigger-happy weekend. All the locations are within an hour or so drive from the hotel. Some locations are run by the National Trust or English Heritage. It would be worth being members or going with a member so that the weekend can be enjoyed to the full. Prices listed are correct at time of publication, concession prices are in brackets. Please take care and be respectful of the landscape around you. If you intend climbing or doing any other dangerous activities, please go in pairs (at least). -
