Summer 2019 Walks Programme with Adverts ROBOROUGH.Pub Summer 2019 Walks Programme Message From The Chair am proud to be taking over the helm of our very successful Ramblers Group and as the days start to get longer, the I birds start singing and the spring flowers begin to rear their heads, the final confirmation that summer is approaching is the appearance of the Tavistock Ramblers Summer Walks Programme. Preparing the programme is akin to drawing up a menu. Retaining a few proven favourites but trying a selection of new “dishes” with Paul being Head Chef. So it is with our latest programme. We always like to thank our leaders who submit walk suggestions but this time they seem to have excelled even their high standards. As a result, we have been able to put on more walks than usual; more Wednesday and Thursday walks, linear walks, walks as part of Dartmoor Walking Festival and a repeat of the popular Lych Way walk. The “menu” guarantees there is something for everyone. The good news is that even if you overindulge, it will be good for you! Even the strongest walkers have to stop and rest sometimes which is where the social programme comes in, so make sure you look at what is planned over the coming months and come along. Many of the walks have a particular social slant as well, so there is always an opportunity to share extra time and laughter with each other. Whether you are a regular or occasional walker, a new or older member, you are all very welcome in our Tavistock Ramblers family and we all look forward to spending time with you. Best Wishes Sue Whiteman Walks Guidance Notes We welcome all Ramblers members on our walks. Non -members are also welcome to join us on a walk or two before deciding to join Ramblers. Walks Meeting Points Our Group encourages car sharing and we meet in Tavistock to share transport FOR ALL OF THE WALKS IN THIS PROGRAMME unless specifically stated otherwise. The meeting point is the free car park in Pixon Lane, Tavistock PL19 9BB (just below the Market Inn). Note that the programme now shows the time that we meet at Pixon Lane AND the anticipated time that the walk will start. Also note that we do leave the Tavistock meeting point promptly. Those wishing to make their own way to the start point of the walk should check with the leader to confirm that there have been no changes in details. Drivers usually appreciate it when passengers make a voluntary contribution. As a guide, £1 to £4 according to distance travelled, is considered a reasonable amount to offer. Please bring clean shoes to change into if a passenger in another walker’s car. Safety Information Walks take place over ground that may be steep, uneven, slippery, muddy or rough and can involve climbing stiles and crossing streams. No liability is accepted by the leader or Tavistock Ramblers in respect of any personal loss, damage or injury that occurs on, or as a consequence of, any walk or event. Walkers should wear suitable footwear and clothing appropriate to the walk and weather conditions and bring adequate food and drink. Always bring an extra snack and spare warm clothing in your rucksack in case we are delayed or the weather deteriorates. Walkers are advised to carry their own first aid kit. Walks leaders no longer carry first aid kits provided by the group. The leader reserves the right to vary the route or cancel the walk to take account of weather or ground conditions. The leader also has the right to exclude from the walk anyone who is felt to be insufficiently fit or equipped for the planned walk. Walks Gradings The walks in this Walks Programme are graded in accordance with the Ramblers grading system. Easy - walks for anyone who does not have a mobility difficulty, a specific health problem or who is seriously unfit. Comfortable shoes or trainers can be worn. Leisurely - walks for reasonably fit people with at least a little country walking experience. The walk may include unsurfaced rural paths. Walking boots and warm, waterproof clothing are recommended. Moderate - walks for people with country walking experience and a good level of fitness. May include some steep paths and open country, and might be at a brisk pace. Walking boots and warm, waterproof clothing are essential. Strenuous - walks for experienced country walkers with an above average fitness level. May include hills and rough country, and may be at a brisk pace. Walking boots and warm, waterproof clothing are essential. Walks Gradings The grades are indicated on the Walks Programme as follows: E Easy L Leisurely M Moderate S Strenuous Please also note: When walking, we usually stop after an hour or so for a “coffee stop”. If the walk is more than, say, 5 or 6 miles you should bring lunch. If in doubt, contact the leader beforehand. Walk gradings are provided as a general guide only. If you have any doubt about your fitness for a particular walk please contact the organiser or leader in advance. • Bear in mind the distance of the walk, regional differences in terrain and the possibility of bad weather, which can make a walk more difficult than planned. • If you're unsure of your fitness level, try a short and easy walk first - it's much better to find a walk a little too slow and easy than to make yourself miserable and exhausted. • Leaders may refuse to accept participants who in their opinion are inadequately equipped or unfit. • Walks gradings relate to the difficulty or otherwise of the walk and not the length. A long walk, requiring a degree of stamina, can therefore, possibly be graded as Easy and you should take this into account. ICE Cards All regular walkers who are members of Tavistock Ramblers have been given an ICE (In Case of Emergency) card. These cards have been purchased from group funds and are for the safety of members. They record identity, contact and medical information and should be clipped inside the top of the rucksack. Medical ID Your smart phone can also help in an emergency even if you are unresponsive. Both IOS (Apple) and Android have a standard feature in “Settings” called Medical ID where similar information but in more detail is available. This is accessible even if your phone is locked. It also means that an emergency call can be made without knowing the passcode. You are urged to make sure that you have activated this feature. You are more likely to be carrying a phone than a rucksack when not out walking, after all. Emergency SMS On the subject of phones, we have been advocating for several years now that all members register their mobile phones with the SMS Emergency Service. This means that you should be able to contact the emergency services even if there is no signal on your network. Dogs Dogs are permitted on walks, except where specifically excluded, but on the clear understanding that they are under complete control at all times and on a lead where there is livestock. In particular, dogs should be kept on a short lead during the bird nesting season on Dartmoor (1st March to 31st July) and throughout all refreshment and lunch stops during the walk.

  • 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).

The regional programme is completed in two years and comprises approximately 950 sites covering 4230 km of river and 27 km of canal. Half the catchments are surveyed in any one year. The couplete two-year programme matches the reaches monitored in the chemical monitoring programme. Additional sites are included so that all reaches that were assigned River Quality Objectives in the Asset Management Plan produced in 1989 are monitored. The following catchments are to be surveyed in full in 1993: Lim Exe Teign Dart Gar a Avon Seaton Looe Fowey (lower sub-catchment only) Par Crinnis St Austell South Cornwall Streams Fal Helford Lizard Streams Land's End Streams Hayle Red and Coastal Streams Gannel Valency and Coastal Streams Strat/Neet Hartland Streams North Devon Coastal Streams Lyn Twenty-two key sites throughout the region are sampled every year, to assess annual changes.

Excluding listed places of worship, for which the survey is still incomplete,1,150 assets have been removed for positive reasons since the Register was launched in 2008.The sites that remain at risk tend to be the more intractable ones where solutions are taking longer to implement. While the overall number of buildings at risk has fallen, the average conservation deficit for each property has increased from £260k (1999) to £370k (2012).We are also seeing a steady increase in the proportion of buildings that are capable of beneficial re-use – those that have become redundant not because of any fundamental lack of potential, but simply as the temporary victims of the current economic climate. The South West headlines for 2012 reveal a mixed picture. We will continue to fund Monument Management It is good news that 8 buildings at risk have been removed Schemes which, with match-funding from local authorities, from the Register; less good that another 15 have had to offer a cost-effective, locally led approach to tackling be added.
