Crouch, H.J. (date accessed). Somerset Rare Plant Register account: Campanula patula. Somerset Rare Plants Group, www.somersetrareplantsgroup.org.uk [Last updated 18-03-2020] Campanula patula L. Spreading Bellflower Native GB: Endangered England: Critically Endangered Section 41 GB: Scarce VC5 Lost; VC6 Rare A biennial, found in open sunny woodland clearings or rough grassland at the edge of woodlands, usually on poor soil. In VC5 long lost, the only record made by J. Sowerby who found a single plant at Barwick (Murray, 1896). In VC6, seen by Maton on banks bordering the road to Castle Cary, not 200 yards from Brewton [Bruton] (Murray, 1896) and recorded by Murray on a lane between Castle Cary and Cole railway station. Watson recorded this species below Creech Hill, Bruton (Marshall, 1914). Murray found one plant by the roadside at Wells in 1883; H.F. Parsons found it once at Vallis (Murray, 1896). It was reported from Compton Martin Wood, West Harptree and in a field at East Harptree near the Manor House, where it was seen by T.B. Flower in 1888 (White, 1912). There have been no subsequent records at any of these sites. Rutter (1829) recorded Campanula patula at East Harptree Combe, where it persists on the steep side of the combe and also on a steep grassy slope, formally the ramparts of Richmont Castle. This species has declined dramatically throughout much of its range. Seed may survive buried in the soil for many years, but lack of disturbance of the soil is believed to be a major cause of decline. With its stronghold in the Welsh borders, this species is at the southwest edge of its range in Somerset.

    m eBoot – January 2019 This month’s edition includes: • Exmoor weekend, June 2019 • Committee meeting • Maps and route planner • Notices ! • Books for walkers • Forthcoming walks • Commercial corner • Some more poems Join us on Facebook: www.facebook.com/groups/bristolramblersgroup/ Exmoor Weekend 21st to 24th June 2019 This is a reminder that walks are being organised for a long weekend based in Exmoor. So far there are 16 people who have said they will or may come. The intention is that a full B walk will be offered en route on the Friday, probably in the Brendon Hills. Full and shorter walks will be offered on Saturday and Sunday, with a shorter walk in the Quantock Hills on the way home on Monday. People are booking their own accommodation in Lynmouth or Lynton, where there is ample provision if booked in good time. A breakaway group will camp at Exford, high on the moor with pubs where refuge may be sought. It should be pointed out that these two venues are 1/2 hour apart by car so early planning of your preferred walk may be necessary! A couple of walk leaders have offered their services, but another to lead or be on standby would be welcome. It would be helpful if you would let Chris Sanders know as and when you decide you'd like to come (or lead a walk) ([email protected]). All are welcome, but we'll need to keep an eye on lift availability. Committee meeting, 4th December The latest meeting of the Group’s Committee had a packed agenda.

I find it to be much the same in both, viz. thinly hairy. Many continental authors derive a character from the petioles, say- ing of P. Avium "petioles with one or two (large) glands at the top ;" and of P. Cerasus " glands on the petioles none or mounting to the lower teeth of the leaves." I am convinced, however, that no reliance can be placed on this. Perhaps the shape of the adult leaves and the suckers of P. Cerasus afford the best characters. [P. PADUS, L.

    A SUPPLEMENT TO THE FLORA OF SOMERSET EDWARD SHEARBURN MARSHALL, M.A., F.L.S. RECTOR OF WEST MONKTON. Uaunton : PUBLISHED BY THE SOMERSETSHIRE ARCH^OLOGICAL AND NATURAL HISTORY SOCIETY. 1914 ; PREFACE. In these pages I have tried to record the various additions or corrections since the pubHcation of Mr. Murray's book ; which, though dated 1896, was not (I beheve) issued until early in the following year. There is a certain fitness in my continuing his work ; for we were intimate friends from the autumn of 1882 until his death, and I had a small share in his Somerset explorations : he was also my first real helper in the study of critical plants. I have generally followed the London Catalogue names and standard of species, which is somewhat more liberal than that of Fl. Som. ; Mr. Murray was accustomed to deal with larger areas, and his point of view was synthetical, rather than analytical. Researches have been carried on for many years in the north-west ; the results are embodied in Mr. J. W. White's Flora of Bristol, in my opinion quite the best and most thorough book of its kind, which appeared in 1912. He has most generously allowed me to make full use of it and—as the reader cannot fail to see—it has been my mainstay. Our friend Dr. C. E. Moss has written an important plant-associations work on the of the county ; and I wish to thank my numerous correspondents for their cordial help. The time has not yet come for a new edition of the Somerset Flora, ; several districts stiU need much closer investigation, and my own scanty leisure is so much occupied by other matters that I have been un- iv ablo to (lovoto a great deal of it to local excursions.
