As I reflect on this chilly November morning, as a worshipping church community we seem to be at a pivot point. We have just been looking back with our ʻAll Soulsʼ and Remembrance services, and we are about to look forward to advent, to Christmas, and to a new year. The word ʻJanuaryʼ comes from the name of the Roman god Janus: the god of beginnings and transitions. He is usually depicted as having two faces, since he looks to the future and to the past. As Christians we are now looking forward to celebrations of Christmas – the time when we remember how God entered world history two millennia ago as Jesus Christ – a fact attested not only by Bible writers, but also by 1st Century Roman historians, such as Josephus and Tacitus. As a church family we are also excitedly looking forward to Revd Kate Woolven joining us as our new Priest in Charge in 2014. But behind and beyond these plans, as followers of Jesus, we look forward above all to that unknowable future date when time will finally end, and Godʼs home will be among his people once more! ʻHe will live with us, and we will be his people. God himself will be with us. He will wipe every tear from our eyes, and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. All these things are gone forever.” ( Revelation 21:3/4) Now this is the future hope to which we believers hold fast. ʻFaithʼ the bible tells us ʼis being sure of what you hope forʼ. I wish you a hope-filled, faith-filled Christmas and New Year. Rev Shuna George, Curate. FESTIVAL CHOIR All singers are invited to join the Festival Choir to participate in the Carols by Candlelight service on 22nd December at 6pm. We sing in 4 parts but you are given lots of help to learn your part! You don't have to be a sight reader! Please ring Adrian on 442902 if you'd like to learn more about getting involved. 4 Welcome to the Christmas and New Year edition of our Parish magazine. I cannot believe how quickly the last year has gone, I still haven’t planted my run- ner beans out! Don’t tell Nigel Ball though. You can read what he suggests to do during these winter months on Page 19 What great news that we have a new incumbent in the Church. Rev Kate Wool- ven has been appointed Priest in Charge of Uplyme & Axmouth, and takes up her appointment at the end of January. You can read all about her on page 6. We have to count ourselves very lucky to get someone so fast, as a number of Parishes in the Diocese will be waiting over a year! Wendy from the Pub tells us what’s been happening on page 5 and I have to say the trip to the Races at Exeter was a great day out! Even though I say it myself, I did manage to pick a few winners on the day, and turned a nice handy profit........ Now what to spend my 50p on! David Jones from the 9-90 Mens Group is organising Community Walks in Janu- ary, his notice can be read on page 20, this could be the start of something to rival The Ramblers - “It’s more than just walking you know”! The 14th December sees the Church “Christmas Fayre”. There’ll be lots to do and buy, and I’ll be serving our now famous “Christmas Lunch in a Bun” It all starts at 1pm, and if last year is anything to go by, the dinner time delight will be snapped up in no time! I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year. See you in 2014! Ed. Saturday 18th January 2pm Uplyme Village Hall 40p entry In aid of 1st Lym valley scout group Tel 678 351 for details 5 Priming the pump - ABC of Uplyme’s water and sanitation project V – versatility Living in a rural village for 3 nights during our trip, it became clear how incredibly versa:le people are at adap:ng things with very few tools. I woke one morning with the sound of digging and emerging from my mosquito tent to walk to the long-­‐drop toilet sited some distance from the house for hygiene reasons, I found the son of my hosts, who was aged 14, busy digging holes for something he had made to enable me to wash my hands. This was two posts with v-­‐shaped tops and a bar to sit in them. A water container was suspended from the bar. It had a hole in the boDom with a :ght-­‐fiFng s:ck to keep the water in. Sand is used as very effec:ve scouring agent for pot-­‐ cleaning and my host was straightening a young sapling which had been cut down for porch-­‐building by weaving it through a several other trees . V – village What is described as a village in Zambia is actually an area which can encompass up to 15 km. There are very few towns and most people live in family groupings with houses gathered around their land. A Headman is a very important figure and he oversees a large area and is the arbiter in the case of disputes. This large area is sub-­‐divided into smaller ‘villages’ he delegates his authority to people living there. It is vitally important for the water and sanita:on team to have a good rela:onship with the headman of an area. If the headman is not ‘on-­‐side’, the village will not be ready to have a borehole. V – violence Zambians are a very peace-­‐loving people and have, to date, never really had a war. In fact when the Zulus invaded their territory they didn’t have any knowledge of how to fight. V – vulnerable Life for a subsistence farmer and family is very precarious. They are vulnerable to the vagaries of the weather which has grown drier lately with the rains finishing earlier than normal which means that crops have insufficient water in the last stages of ripening. This affects harvests and we were shown empty storage containers. Poor crops mean less to eat and sell which also affects whether the children are able to go to school. The house I stayed in didn’t have a door, so this meant that someone had to be around the homestead area at all :mes in case of theS. We were barricaded in at night to prevent intruders, either people or animals. More Priming the Pump next..... :me Russell and Morag Kingsbury We’re collec:ng good quality books and toys to sell.

Our fondest love to Angie and Andrew on the birth of their baby girl xx We had great fun when River Cottage did some filming in the paddock, some of you may have seen lots of our locals and Steve enjoy their moment of stardom on one of the River Cottage series on channel 4. Steve went through a few weeks of telling me to talk to his agent if I asked him to do anything! I am told a great day was had by all who went on the Exeter race day, and Steve had his second TV appearance when he was randomly interviewed at the racecourse by Spotlight and we saw him on the news.

Neighbourhood Development Plans were introduced by the 2011 Localism Act, to give local people more say about the scale and nature of development in their area, within the context of both strategic planning policy in the National Planning Policy Framework 2012, and local plans – in our case, the adopted East Devon Local Plan 2013-2031. The Uplyme Neighbourhood Plan relates to the whole of the Parish and includes a wide range of topics: housing, employment, community facilities, transport, and the built and natural environment. The Plan will run until 2031 to coincide with the end date of the Local Plan, but may need to be reviewed before then. The Plan has been drafted by local people in the Uplyme Neighbourhood Plan Group, following extensive community consultation and engagement over a period of years, followed by an examination by an independent Planning Inspector. We believe that the plan represents a broad consensus of local opinion. Chris James Chair Uplyme Parish Council & Neighbourhood Plan Group July 2017 Dedication This Plan is dedicated to the memory of Peter Roy Whiting, former Chairman of both the Parish Council and the Neighbourhood Plan Group. Without his encyclopaedic technical knowledge of planning and civil engineering, his puckish wit, enthusiasm and dedication, the project would have struggled in its formative stage. Peter – your presence is sadly missed.

    1 Otter View 1 Otter View Gore Lane, Lyme Regis, Dorset, DT7 3TE Lyme Regis 1 Mile Axminster 4 Miles Bridport 12 Miles An endearing semi-detached cottage in a tucked away position within easy reach of Lyme Regis. • 1930s Cottage • Beautifully Presented • Nearby Single Garage and • 2 Double Bedrooms Parking • Charming Gardens • Character Features Guide price £289,950 THE PROPERTY 1 Otter View is a delightful semi-detached cottage located in a tucked away, elevated position within the popular village of Uplyme and therefore enjoying close proximity to Lyme Regis. The property dates back to the 1930s and features several of the hall marks of this period of architecture including high ceilings, large windows, panelled doors and exposed floorboards in the sitting room. Under the current ownership, which has lasted since 2008, the property has been improved and maintained to a high standard yet with sympathy to the building's history, thus preserving and enhancing charming character features such as the fireplace with multi-fuel stove and the wood panelling. The accommodation is light and well proportioned throughout with the rooms arranged in a simple, classical layout. The front door opens into a most appealing sitting room with a comfortable yet stylish atmosphere. Adjoining this is the kitchen/dining room which features cottage-style wooden units beneath beech work surfaces with spaces for all the usual appliances. The conservatory, which overlooks the rear garden, has a wonderful air of tranquility and is therefore ideal for a number of uses including a second reception room, studio or garden room. Upstairs there are two generous double bedrooms, one of which enjoys beautiful country views to the rear, and the bathroom.

  • Statement of Gemma Hatton Re O.P.A
    Statement of Gemma Hatton re O.P.A Intro by Lorna My name is Gemma Hatton, aged 31, married with three children under eleven, 2 boys and one girl. I was born and educated in Lyme Regis and my family have lived there for many generations. We were living in a two bedroom housing association flat in Lyme Regis and there seemed to be no prospect of obtaining a three bedroom property anytime soon, due to the waiting list being so long and open to people from all of West Dorset, not just those with a local connection. We were fortunate to be able to bid for a three bedroomed council owned dwelling in the village of Dalwood which is some ten miles from Lyme Regis. My husband was at that time working in Axminster and I was working in Musbury both of which are in Devon, that gave us a local connection. Dalwood is a nice friendly place but there is no school, so this means a trip of about three miles across the A35 to Shute. In Lyme of course we would have been able to walk to school. My husband now works in Lyme Regis and travels approximately 100 miles per week to his job. I too am still actively involved with Lyme Regis life which means a 20 mile round trip to attend rehearsals or to visit our extensive families. I have two grandparents, my own and my husband’s parents, our sisters and many other close relations all living in Lyme Regis. Whilst we have settled well in Dalwood, our family would have definitely stayed in Lyme Regis to be close to our families, if we thought a three bedroomed house would have been available within a reasonable time frame.
