    The view from Down St Mary 780 to 2014 DSM timeline © Roger Steer 780 The Saxons reach the Tamar. During the period of the Saxons, the natural forests of Devon are gradually cleared and most of the villages and settlements we take for granted in the countryside are established. 905 Bishop Putta is murdered – some say at the spot where Copplestone cross stands. 909 Diocese of Crediton created. 934-53 Bishop Ethelgar collects funds for the building of St Mary’s Minster at Crediton. 974 Copplestone Cross, at the junction of Down St Mary with two other parishes until 1992, is mentioned in a charter, but is much older than that. It is early Celtic interlaced work such as is not found elsewhere in England except in Northumbria. The cross gives a name to a once noted Devon family which comes in the local rhyme: Crocker, Cruwys, and Coplestone, When the Conqueror came were found at home. Eleventh Century 1018 Buckfast Abbey is founded under the patronage of King Canute. 1040 The Manor of Down(e) named after the Saxon settlement DUN meaning Hill, first recorded as being the gift of King Harthacnut. (Harthacnut was king of Denmark from 1028 to 1042 and of England from 1040 to 1042. Some of the glebe land in the manor originally formed part of the Devon estates of Harthacnut’s father, Canute, king of England 1016-35.) Tenure is granted to Aelfwein, Abbot of Buckfast in support of the ministry of the Abbey Church. Down St Mary is one of six Devon churches held by the Abbot of Buckfast prior to the Norman conquest, the others being Churchstow, Petrockstow, South Brent, Trusham and Zeal Monachorum.

  • The Dartmoor Line Re-Opening of Exeter – Okehampton Rail Service
    THE DARTMOOR LINE RE-OPENING OF EXETER – OKEHAMPTON RAIL SERVICE BREIFING NOTES FOR COUNCILLORS Introduction The Exeter – Okehampton rail service, to be marketed as ‘The Dartmoor Line’ is re-opening later in 2021 (www.dartmoorline.com) . Network Rail and GWR Trains kindly provided a private briefing to Steve Whiteley and Colin Lee on 22 March. Here are the details: The Opening The opening date has not been confirmed yet but will in ‘in 2021’. The legal transfer of the railway and land from Aggregate Industries to Network Rail will be completed shortly. Network Rail works Although the track is still in place between Crediton and Meldon, it has been little used for a number of years and has not been maintained for even longer. As a result the track is in a ropey state and will need to be largely relaid with new ballast, sleepers and rail. Drainage also needs to be improved in many locations. This is the major work that takes up much of the £40.5 million approved by the Government. Councillors may have noticed Network Rail Engineers already busy on the line and at Okehampton there is a huge pile of ballast and new track panels ready to be laid. Bridges are largely in good condition although some will need remedial works. Vegetation clearance is also required although this will be minimised , with consultation with an Ecologist and Natural England. Okehampton Station Okehampton Station will come under Network Rail ownership but they have pledged to retain, and even enhance, the current ‘Southern Railway 1930’ ambience. They hope to lease out space for a café, information centre and toilets.
