  • Postbridge Settlement Profile
    Postbridge September 2019 This settlement profile has been prepared by Dartmoor National Park Authority to provide an overview of key information and issues for the settlement. It has been prepared in consultation with Parish/Town Councils and will be updated as necessary. Settlement Profile: Postbridge 1 Introduction Postbridge lies on the road between Two Bridges and Moretonhampstead, 5 miles east of Princetown. It commands a central geographical location within Dartmoor National Park. It is an important destination for visitors to Dartmoor. It hosts a National Park Visitor Centre, a large car park with room for coaches, and is the base for walks into moorland and forest and for viewing the well-known clapper bridge. There is also a youth hostel operating in nearby Bellever. The village name refers to the pack horse bridge (formed of large dimension clapper stones) over the East Dart River close to the main road. The cottages and inns that grew up around the bridge, along with ancient tenements nearby, came together to form the settlement and community. The turnpike road established in the 1790s, and the granite road bridge that was built in 1792, gave added importance to the settlement. There is a limited range of local services and facilities. However, there are pubs, a shop and a village hall, and visitor patronage helps support what is currently on offer Settlement Profile: Postbridge 2 Demographics A summary of key population statistics Age Profile (Census 2011, defined by best-fit Output Area*) Settlement comparison (Census 2011*)

    “THE MORCHARD MESSENGER” THE INDEPENDENT VILLAGE NEWSLETTER www.morchardbishop-pc.org.uk No. 296 February 2020 SPONSORED THIS MONTH BY MORCHARD BISHOP W.I. MORCHARD BISHOP W.I. 2019 was an interesting and diverse year for Morchard Bishop WI. We had some brilliant speakers at our meetings. In February, Captain David Dorman gave us a fascinating account of his life at sea and told us many anecdotes from his travels. We had our AGM in April and carried a resolution to improve rural bus services and Mo Sparrow entertained us by demonstrating her easy system for cleaning silver. In May Homeleigh Garden Centre gave us a tutorial on hanging baskets and container planting. In July Rosemary Cook showed us the art of willow work. We had a particularly successful meeting in September when Richard Gibson and his wife told us of their charity providing water for African communities, a popular subject which attracted many guests. In October, a representative of the RNLI showed us films and slides of the extraordinary rescue work that they undertake. We also had some enjoyable outings and lunches. In March we celebrated our 92nd birthday at the Devonshire Dumpling, Mo gave us an account of the WI evening at John Lewis, which was so successful that it was repeated in October, and Sue Pluckwell gave a short talk on the food of Costa Rica. In June we had a Red Coat guided tour of the Bishop's Palace Gardens in Exeter, we were lucky to have one of the original guides who told us some hilarious tales.

  • Al160207osa Market Coastal Towns
    EEC/07/63/HQ Environment, Economy and Culture Overview/Scrutiny Committee 5 March 2007 Market and Coastal Towns Report of the Director of Environment, Economy and Culture 1. Summary In January 2006, members received a report on the draft Devon Sites and Premises Strategy and as a result expressed concern about the shortage of premises for smaller businesses. It was resolved that a further report be submitted, which covered economic development issues relating to Market Towns, including the availability of sites for relocation of small businesses and the Market and Coastal Town initiative (MCTi). This report concentrates on work undertaken in association with the MCTi pending further analysis of specific matters relevant to business premises. 2. Background In the South West, the MCTi commenced in 2000 and was led by the Regional Development Agency, Countryside Agency and English Heritage, with support from many other bodies. The scheme received greater emphasis following the incidence of Foot and Mouth Disease and a number of towns adversely affected were included in the programme. Since October 2004, delivery of the initiative has been charged to the Market and Coastal Towns Association (MCTA). This is an independent organisation largely funded by the Regional Development Agency, English Heritage and Big Lottery Fund. The initiative is a community based regeneration programme focusing on the preparation, by local people, of a long term Community Strategic Plan covering the social, economic, environmental and cultural features of their town and its hinterland. The MCTA delivers capacity building support to communities, enabling them to prepare the plans and develop their skills and organisational capacity while sharing good practice with others.
