Follow links: http://www.tamarcruising.com/ http://www.plymouthbarbican.com/ SOCIAL EVENT OPTION 2: Wistman’s Wood Walk Wistman's Wood is one of three remote copses of stunted oaks on Dartmoor, Devon, England. It lies at an altitude of between 380–420 metres in the valley of the West Dart River near Two Bridges. Wistman's Wood is a rare example of the ancient high‐level woodlands of Dartmoor. Its name probably derives from Wisht‐man's wood, the vernacular word wisht meaning pixie‐led or haunted. The wood consists mainly of stunted pedunculate oak trees that grow from between moss‐covered boulders and are festooned with epiphytic mosses, lichens and ferns. Note that weather conditions on Dartmoor can be unpredictable and can rapidly change. Please ensure that you are fit and come equipped with good warm and waterproof outdoor clothing and good walking boots. The walk is about 4 miles altogether and will take about 2 hours. After the walk there will be a tasty cream tea at the Two Bridges Hotel. Follow links: http://www.legendarydartmoor.co.uk/wistman.htm http://www.twobridges.co.uk/hotel SOCIAL EVENT OPTION 3: Sharpham Vineyard/Cheesery This thousand year old farm consists of five hundred acres owned by the Sharpham Trust. The house, designed in 1770 by Sir Robert Taylor, overlooks the fields and wooded slopes above the River Dart, two miles downstream of the ancient market town of Totnes. They aim to produce world class wine and cheese in harmony with the environment and the natural beauty of the Estate. The visit will consist of a guided tour of both the vineyard and winery, together with a tasting of our wines and cheese, (styles as available). A full explanation of the process from vine to wine is also given. UPDATED PROGRAMME AND DELEGATE INFORMATION April 2011 South West Annual Medical Physics and Clinical Engineering Scientific Meeting, 13 & 14 May 2011 issue v5 The trails through the vineyard take approximately 30mins to walk and involve some stiles and inclines. All visitors wishing to walk through the vineyard will need good mobility plus suitable footwear and clothing. Follow link: http://www.sharpham.com/ THE ROYAL CITADEL The Royal Citadel was the most important English defence for over 100 years with its 70 foot high walls. It was built in 1665 to the design of Sir Bernard de Gomme over the earlier Plymouth Fort as a defence against a threatened Dutch invasion. It has been regularly strengthened over the years, particularly during the 1750's when it was equipped with 113 guns, and is still in use today by the military. Guided tours March ‐ September. It is at the eastern end of Plymouth Hoe overlooking Plymouth Sound. On its south east corner it incorporates Fisher's Nose Blockhouse dating from 1490‐1540. On the opposite bank to Fisher's Nose was Queen Anne's Battery dating from 1667. By the end of the 17th century the emphasis on defence changed due to developments in armaments from a central defensive unit to new forts and gun batteries in a ring around the Dockyard and the approaches to it.

  • 2020 Paignton
    GUIDE 1 Welcome to the 2020 NOPS Kit Kat Tour Torbay is a large bay on Devon’s south coast. Overlooking its clear blue waters from their vantage points along the bay are three towns: Paignton, Torquay and Brixham. The bays ancient flood plain ends where it meets the steep hills of the South Hams. These hills act as suntrap, allowing the bay to luxuriate in its own warm microclimate. It is the bays golden sands and rare propensity for fine weather that has led to the bay and its seaside towns being named the English Riviera. Dartmoor National Park is a wild place with open moorlands and deep river valleys, a rich history and rare wildlife, making is a unique place and a great contrast to Torbay in terms of photographic subjects. The locations listed in the guide have been selected as popular areas to photograph. I have tried to be accurate with the postcodes but as many locations are rural, they are an approximation. They are not intended as an itinerary but as a starting point for a trigger-happy weekend. All the locations are within an hour or so drive from the hotel. Some locations are run by the National Trust or English Heritage. It would be worth being members or going with a member so that the weekend can be enjoyed to the full. Prices listed are correct at time of publication, concession prices are in brackets. Please take care and be respectful of the landscape around you. If you intend climbing or doing any other dangerous activities, please go in pairs (at least).

It supports an amazing array of wildlife and is an important reserve for those species that can withstand harsher conditions including some very rare plants and animals. Dartmoor provides an important stronghold for otters, a globally threatened and protected species. The otter has made a comeback on Dartmoor over the past 15 years and the area now supports nationally important populations of this well known and loved mammal.

These areas have their own objectives and standards. Article 4 of the Water Framework Directive requires Member States to achieve compliance with the standards and objectives set for each protected area by 22 December 2015, unless otherwise specified in the Community legislation under which the protected area was established. Some areas may require special protection under more than one EC Directive or may have additional (surface water and/or groundwater) objectives. In these cases, all the objectives and standards must be met. Article 6 requires Member States to establish a register of protected areas. The types of protected areas that must be included in the register are: • areas designated for the abstraction of water for human consumption (Drinking Water Protected Areas); • areas designated for the protection of economically significant aquatic species (Freshwater Fish and Shellfish); • bodies of water designated as recreational waters, including areas designated as Bathing Waters; • nutrient-sensitive areas, including areas identified as Nitrate Vulnerable Zones under the Nitrates Directive or areas designated as sensitive under Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (UWWTD); • areas designated for the protection of habitats or species where the maintenance or improvement of the status of water is an important factor in their protection including relevant Natura 2000 sites1.

  • Understanding Your Landscape Partnership Area
    The story of the people and landscape over 4,000 years on Dartmoor 1 SECTION 1 UNDERSTANDING YOUR LANDSCAPE PARTNERSHIP AREA “Dartmoor, to the casual first-time observer, might appear to be a natural landscape – natural in the sense of being unchanged by the hand of man through the ages of time – or at any rate as natural a landscape as it is possible to find in the rapidly changing land of Britain….. The further one goes the more obvious it becomes that man – industrious man – has been here before” Helen Harris (1994) Moor than meets the eye – the character of the area From the high moor to the fringe of the lowland plain, the Moor than meets the eye area: “…encompasses contrasts between the tor-crowned ridges and peat-filled valleys; moorland waste and agricultural land; royal forest and medieval settlement; which provide a rich diversity of interest. In this area man has assessed and utilised the varied resources of soil, water, woodland and minerals and so created the changing landscape patterns which today are regarded as ‘typical’ Dartmoor…" Brunsden and Gerrard, in Gill, 1970 The area is quintessentially ‘Dartmoor’ – a rich cultural landscape displaying thousands of years of human interaction – a microcosm of the landscape, both vast and intimate, that creates such a sense of place. Yet this was not always the case, or at least the sense of place was very different. In 1804, T H Williams, in his Picturesque Excursions in Devon and Cornwall, described Dartmoor as: “Dreary in the extreme…presenting nothing of consequence…an increase

A NOTE ON VERSIONS The version presented here may differ from the published version. If citing, you are advised to consult the published version for pagination, volume/issue and date of publication Medieval Archaeology, 50, 2006 Beyond Villages and Open Fields: The Origins and Development of a Historic Landscape Characterised by Dispersed Settlement in South-West England By S. J. RIPPON, R. M. FYFE and A. G. BROWN POLLEN EVIDENCE has, to date, made little contribution to our understanding of the origins and development of the medieval landscape. Compared to the prehistoric period, relatively few long palaeoenvironmental sequences provide a continuous record for the past two millennia, and those that have been analysed are mostly located in upland locations that lay beyond areas settled during this period. The nine sequences reported here from central Devon and the edges of Exmoor start to redress that imbalance. They suggest substantial clearance of woodland in lowland areas and the upland fringe by the Late Iron Age, and that the incorporation of this region into the Roman world had little impact on patterns of landscape exploitation. In a region that lay beyond the main area of Romanisation, it is not surprising that the 5th century saw little discernible change in management of the landscape.
