Last Sunday we witnessed what ‘flourish’ looks like – more of that, Guild Events please. Whilst it is impossible to thank all key individuals by name, I RINGING REMEMBERS would like to pay a special tribute to Vicki Chapman – Ringing Remembers Project Coordinator, Colin Chapman – Coordinator’s ‘roadie’, Alan Regin – Steward of the CCCBR Rolls of Honour, Andrew Hall – developer and administrator of the Ringing Remembers web platform, and Bruce and Eileen Butler – who linked thousands of enquirers to guilds, districts and towers. And there are so many others… My thanks go also to all those who have come to ringing through this route; may you continue to develop in skill and gain many happy years of fulfilment in your ringing. And to that widespread army of ringing teachers who have risen to the challenge of training so many enthusiastic learners – well done! Last Sunday was a day of reflection, a day of commemoration, a day of participation. Bellringers everywhere were able to say: ‘I was there – I remembered’. Christopher O’Mahony The badge issued to all new ringers who registered in time Photo by Lesley Oates Note from our Guild President I think all of our members deserve to be congratulated on the ‘WE REMEMBERED’ – A MESSAGE FROM THE fantastic number of towers in Devon which were heard ringing for PRESIDENT OF THE CENTRAL COUNCIL OF the Armistice on Sunday.

  • Teignmouth Economic and Data Profile Indices of Deprivation
    Teignmouth economic and data profile Included in this profile are recently published datasets, where these are provided for Teignmouth, or for Teignbridge where this is relevant and recent. Additional data may be available from [email protected] upon request to support business cases, where the objective of the case, or bid and bid selection criteria are provided. Indices of deprivation These are reviewed once every four years. Data is provided at the Lower Level Super Output Area (LSOA) which are neighbourhoods of around 1,500-2,000 people. There are 32,844 LSOAs in England and each one is ranked against each other to provide a relative overall position nationally for each neighbourhood. A score of 100% is the least deprived in England and a score of 0% is the most deprived. The index is provided as an overall composite measure of deprivation but is made up of a number of sub-domains, for example income, which are also published alongside the overall index. Often if bidding for national funding pots where deprivation is a factor considered as part of the scoring criteria, the criteria will ask whether the proposed project is in an LSOA that is in the worst 10%/20%/25% in England. Sometimes it can also be helpful even if the project is not within a most deprived LSOA, but is within a mile, or so of them and serves people who live within the most deprived areas to articulate this in the bid. Separately the income and skills domains from the indices of deprivation showing better performing areas can be useful as a proxy of high, or improving levels of income, or skills to articulate to businesses wishing to invest in Teignmouth of the potential market or workforce available.

    DocRef: CHG/RR/003 Chudleigh Author: Steve Coombes Newinnton Lodge History Version: 1.0 ‒ 11 August 2017 Group Newinnton Lodge (originally New House to 1865, Newington Lodge to 1875, Scotleigh to 1958 then Newinnton Lodge) 77 Old Exeter Street 1798 – 1806 : Mr M Batt Potentially as Taverners occupied by Mr. Mark Batt, land agent to Lord Clifford. The EFP of 11 September 1806 carried a for sale advertisement (see left), stating that the occupier, Mr Batt, was moving to reside at Lawell. He remained at Lawell until moving to Lawn Cottage (1822–27). Batt died aged 74 at Tormoham, Torquay on 28 February 1845 (Gent. Mag.) In his Chudleigh, A Chronicle (p80), Anthony Crockett suggests that Mark Batt – Charles Lord Clifford’s land agent – was residing at Taverners, later known as The Retreat. However the EFP description could well also suit New House (later Newinnton Lodge). On leaving the house in the winter of 1806, Mark Batt moved to Lawell, a move that co-incided with his job as land Agent for Lord Clifford. At the top of Old Exeter Street (close to Little Silver) was a detached property owned by Christopher Hellyer (attorney) and as Batt had come to Chudleigh as junior partner to Hellyer it is Mr. Batt's house ‘for sale’ notice – possibly likely to have been the house shown on the Tithe Taveners or New House. Map near Little Silver. (EFP 11 September 1806) On 22 May 1807 was the event that came to be known as ‘The Great Fire of Chudleigh’. We know from various EFP notices that Richard Rose, whose coaching inn, The Kings Arms (Town Hall site), had burnt out and was given the use of Christopher Hellyer’s house which he used until the latter part of 1808.

  • Higher Uppacott, Medieval Transhumance and the Dartmoor
    Higher Uppacott, Medieval Transhumance and the Dartmoor Longhouse The paper explored the reasons for the survival of medieval longhouses in great num- bers on the eastern fringes of Dartmoor. It made great use of Harold Fox’s recently pub- lished research into the medieval development of Dartmoor under royal control and the evidence of transhumance, that is to say the movement of lowland cattle onto the high moor during the summer months. (Dartmoor’s Alluring Uplands: Transhumance and Pastoral Man- agement in the Middle Ages, Harold Fox, published in 2012 by the University of Exeter Press.) He explains how everyone in Devon had the right to pasture their stock on Dartmoor and how the crown sought to control this and make money from it. There were gates which were to be opened on a certain date which had been announced publicly in the major mar- ket towns of the county; how the ancient tenements were established on the moor with free pasturage rights but the obligation that the tenant present himself on horseback for the drifts (when the cattle were counted and appropriate charges levied), how the surrounding parishes had venville rights which meant that they paid a small sum for pasturage Figure 1: Dartmoor Longhouse: Higher Uppacott, Poundsgate, WITM rights but also could, like the tenants of the Ancient Tenements, charge lowlanders to look after their stock, how droveways can be identified throughout Devon and so on. Fox envis- ages a red sea of cattle ebbing and flowing to and from the high moor. He also explains the math’s describing a virtuous circle where all involved made money from this controlled transhumance.
