  • Colyton Neighbourhood Plan Local Evidence Report Aug 2017
    Colyton Parish Neighbourhood Plan Local Evidence Report August 2017 Introduction Neighbourhood planning policy and proposals need to be based on a proper understanding of the place they relate to, if it they are to be relevant, realistic and to address local issues effectively. It is important that our Neighbourhood Plan is based on robust information and analysis of the local area; this is called the evidence base. Unless policy is based on firm evidence and proper community engagement, then it is more likely to reflect the assumptions and prejudices of those writing it than to reflect the needs of the wider area and community. This report endeavours to bring together recent information and informed opinion about the Parish that may have some relevance in preparing a Colyton Neighbourhood Plan. Together with its companion document, which sets out the strategic framework in which we must prepare the Neighbourhood Plan, it provides us with a shared base of knowledge and understanding about Colyton parish on which we can build. Topics: Natural Environment Built Environment and Heritage Housing Community Services and Facilities Transport and Travel Local Economy Leisure and Recreation Compiled by: Carol Rapley Caroline Collier Colin Pady David Page Elaine Stratford Helen Parr Lucy Dack Robert Griffin Steve Real Steve Selby Maps in this report are reproduced under the Public Sector Mapping Agreement © Crown copyright [and database rights] (2016) OS license 100057548 Colyton NP Local Evidence Base 2 Natural Environment Introduction Colyton Parish comprises some 10 square miles (6,400 acres) in area and is situated in East Devon- 2 miles inland.

  • Musbury Parish Council
    !"# $!%&$%!$ ' ( ) *( +) ,- ./0 / Response from Musbury Parish Council Musbury is a parish, together with Shute & Whitford, Dalwood and Kilmington, in the Newbridges ward of East Devon. Newbridges has one councillor, an electorate of 1955 and a variance of 12.2% from average numbers. Musbury Parish Council’s view is that the Newbridges ward should remain as it is now for the following reasons: a) Electoral Equality At the recent briefing meeting held by the BC in Sidmouth on 28 September, Mark Williams , CEO of EDDC said the overall aim of the Review is to achieve between 1900- 2200 electors per councillor for representative balance. With 1995 voters in Newbridges the current figure falls well within this range and will allow for the expected growth in population over the coming years. b) Interests and identities of local communities The communities of the 4 parishes have all changed over time welcoming many new in-comers from other parts of the country and taking account of economic and technological developments. They have grown in size and in resident profile but they remain at heart resolutely rural, with common challenges and opportunities. Shared hub The parishes look to the town of Axminster as their nearest commercial and service hub. Travel There are established bus routes to Axminster which has the train station for routes to Exeter and London Waterloo. Health Axminster also offers a local hospital and the GP surgery (Axminster Medical Practice) whose catchment area extends to include these parishes (but excludes neighbouring Uplyme, Combpyne & Rousdon, Axmouth etc – parishes within Axminster County Division). The Axminster Care Service offers a volunteer car service to patients registered at the Medical Practice to transport them to medical appointments if they have no other ready means of getting there.

  • Tuesday 11 June ' Musbury Castle Walk' with Paul and Fran Dike
    Tuesday 11th June ‘ Musbury Castle Walk’ with Paul and Fran Dike Despite the torrential early morning rain, 8 of us joined Paul and Fran at Musbury for what proved to be a wonderful walk. We followed the East Devon Way from Musbury and then continued steeply up to the Castle; the rain gradually eased, and we were rewarded by long-reaching views when we reached the top. This Iron Age hill fort commands views across to Somerset and Dorset, and of course wonderful East Devon, then out to sea past Axmouth and the white chalk cliffs of Beer Head. Paul is a geographer and a mine of information about the area. We could clearly see the areas of housing of Seaton, Colyford and Colyton – with only a few green fields separating them – a separation local people are keen to maintain! We could just spot Colyton church, a rare “lantern church” which had a lantern in the tower to guide in the ships from Axmouth in times when the Axe was more navigable than it is now. In the valley the Axe now meanders its way calmly to the sea. From Musbury Castle we continued our circular route along quiet lanes (ignoring the aptly names Pudleylake Lane) past farms and through fields of cattle. We had a coffee stop and all enjoyed Fran's delicious flapjacks. Fortified, we decided not to take the short option, but to keep to the planned 6 miles. We were rewarded with more glorious views and as we walked through an extensive farm area some interesting finds including a horse with a very impressive mane.

  • Axminster's 'Natural Hinterland': Parishes, Villages and Hamlets
    Axminster’s ‘Natural Hinterland’: Parishes, Villages and Hamlets Introduction Axminster is not only a market town with a very long history in its own right; it is both a civil parish and an ecclesiastical one (the two entities now cover largely, but not precisely, the same geographical area, but the boundaries have frequently been changed over time). Its strategic location is based on two geographical ‘facts on the ground’: the town overlooks the confluence of the Axe and the Yarty rivers, some 5 miles from the sea; and it sits at the junction of the ancient ‘Portway’ trade route and the Roman Fosse Way1. As the population density grew, these facts made it a natural focus for surrounding settlements, and in 1204 King John granted the Lord of the Manor the right to hold regular markets at Axminster. The question then arises: how far does this ‘natural hinterland’ spread? This map, from the 1950s, represents an area measuring about 16km (or 10 miles) from south to north (from Beer to Stockland), and about 13km (or 8 miles) from west to east (from Stockland to Forde Abbey). 1 There is scope for debate as to whether the Roman road which passes through Axminster formed part of the Fosse Way itself, or was simply one of several ‘feeder’ roads which joined the Fosse Way to the north of Chard. © Axminster Heritage Ltd.
