The characterful and tastefully modernised farmhouse is nestled in a tucked away position surrounded by its own land, giving total privacy and protection along with wonderful views over the surrounding countryside. Sholford Farm is approximately 3 miles from the small town of Wiveliscombe, with a good range of day-to-day facilities including a weekly farmer’s market, various shops, pubs, a bank, a medical centre, a veterinary surgery, a library, and a primary and secondary school. There is also a selection of sporting facilities including a recreational ground with tennis, cricket and rugby clubs and an open air swimming pool. Exmoor National Park, known for its extensive walking, riding, hunting and shooting is a short car drive away, as is Wimbleball Reservoir. The nearby Lowtrow Arms at Upton and The Rock Inn at Waterrow are renowned for their good food. The county town of Taunton, which is 14 miles away, has extensive retail and commercial facilities, together with three independent schools and the Somerset County Cricket Ground. There is access to the M5 motorway (Junction 25) and a main line station with fast trains to London Paddington and the North.

It has been working hard to address the shortage of affordable housing within a predominantly rural area. The area covered by the project displays an extreme disparity between incomes and house prices, which makes it hard for many to gain secure footing within the housing market. The Rural Housing Project is designed to help promote and deliver affordable rural housing strategically across the project area and helps deliver Exmoor National Park housing policies within the Park. This is being achieved by informing people about affordable rural housing, providing help and advice, carrying out research at parish level to assess the affordable housing need and bringing together the community and various partners to help deliver housing where it is needed. One of the tasks for the project is to work with the Parish Council and the local community to assist them in carrying out a housing needs survey, in order to identify whether there is a need for affordable housing for local people in the parish.

The broad purpose of an electoral review is to decide on the appropriate electoral arrangements – the number of councillors and the names, number and boundaries of wards or divisions – for a specific local authority. We are conducting an electoral review of West Somerset District Council to provide improved levels of electoral equality across the district. The review aims to ensure that the number of voters represented by each councillor is approximately the same. The Boundary Committee for England commenced the review in 2009. However, on 1 April 2010 the Local Government Boundary Commission for England assumed the functions of the Boundary Committee and is now conducting the review. It therefore falls to us to complete the work of the Boundary Committee. This review is being conducted as follows: Stage Stage starts Description One 27 October 2009 Submission of proposals to the Boundary Committee Two 19 January 2010 Boundary Committee’s analysis and deliberation Three 25 May 2010 Publication of draft recommendations and consultation on them Four 20 July 2010 Analysis of submissions received and formulation of final recommendations Draft recommendations In our draft recommendations, we proposed a council size of 28 members and a pattern of single, two- and three-member wards.

The representative will either be able to deal with the matter directly, or will pass it on to the relevant sub-committee. The telephone should only be used in an emergency, but the later the problem is raised, the less chance there is of an immediate solution. Please note that proof of insurance must also be sent to your league representative before the start of the season.
