  • Tunnels Beaches North Devon SS516479
    Tunnels Beaches North Devon SS516479 View over the coves towards Crewkorne Cove and the Ladies’ Pool Beach Profile for Coastwise North Devon Janet and Robert Down Introduction and Historical Background No description of Tunnels Beaches is complete without an overview of their history and place in the development of Ilfracombe. The beaches are unique in North Devon for their mixture of atmosphere, ambience and commercialism. Tunnels Beaches are part of the seaside and harbour town of Ilfracombe, and have an interesting history. The town has long been a fishing and trading port, with the natural harbour enhanced by a Georgian jetty. In the late 1700s Ilfracombe became a fashionable spa and sea-bathing destination for wealthy Georgians and a number of hotels, guest houses and public rooms were established. Bathing was centred round Raparree Cove to the East of the harbour and in 1803 the town’s status as a resort was confirmed by its inclusion in the national “Guide to all the Watering and Sea Bathing Places”. The coast on either side of Ilfracombe is deeply indented because of geological folding, and prior to this surge in popularity two sheltered coves, Wildersmouth and Crewkhorne, about half a mile west of the harbour had been extensively used by smugglers, mainly because they were inaccessible by land except for the very agile at low tide. It is also recorded that, even earlier, William de Tracy hid in one of the caves here after the murder of Thomas a Beckett. He was one of the four knights who Page 2 of 7 responded to Henry II’s reputed question “will no one rid me of this turbulent priest ?” when the King and his Archbishop fell out badly in 1170.

  • Chairman's Message
    2011 No. 1 February Reg. Charity No.228966 CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE It is with regret that I have to announce that two of our long standing volunteers have resigned. Peter Reay and Ian Farrell between them have served the Society for over twenty-five years. Peter has been editing the Devon Bird Report from 1999 and wrote a section prior to that year. His keenness to ensure accuracy with each report is a testament to him. I worked closely with Peter for six years whilst County Recorder and I know the loss of his service to the Society will be greatly missed. Ian, will be known to members in recent years as our webmaster a job which he performs with enthusiasm and dedication. I first met Ian when acting as legal advisor to the Society on the wording of its new constitution when I first noticed his commitment, business acumen and a keenness to get the job done, a style he showed throughout his service as a trustee on Council, as Chairman of the Publishing Group and right up to present as Vice Chairman. On behalf of the Society I would like to thank both Peter and Ian for their service to the Society and wish them the very best for the future. Whilst Chairman I have set myself various tasks, last year it was the completion of the Birds of Devon book and ensuring the preparation of the Devon Tetrad Atlas was on a sound footing, both thankfully were achieved. This year my task is probably more difficult in that I will attempt to find volunteers to fill vacancies on Council and other posts that are vacant.

    The US Army in North Devon Second World War US Army Training Structures In December 1941 The United States of America entered the 2nd World War when its Pacific Fleet Naval Base at Pearl Harbour in Hawaii was attacked by the Japanese aircraft. This was quickly followed by a declaration of war by Japan’s Allies Germany and Italy. The Americans were initially unprepared for a war in Europe and through 1942 the American nation quickly mobilised their war industries and expanded their armed forces. By the summer of 1940 Germany had occupied northern Europe but after the Battle of Britain and the declaration of war on the Soviet Union in June 1941, the Germans had adopted a defensive strategy along the English Channel Coast. As the German War effort began to founder in Russia, the decision was taken at the Cassablanca Conference in January 1943 to make a cross channel invasion of the continent of Europe. However, in 1942 the disastrous raid by Canadians and the British at Dieppe in France, reinforced German desire to step up work in constructing the so called “Atlantic Wall” and emphasised the need to for the Americans to undertake training for the proposed cross channel invasion. In 1943, no principle existed in the US Army for assaulting a heavily fortified and defensively prepared coastline and this lack of readiness and need for specialised training led to the formation of an Assault Training Center on the coast of North Devon. The task was allocated to Lieutenant Colonel Paul W Thompson who activated the Assault Training Center in April 1943 although at that stage no practice ground had been established.
