Welcome! News
1 Combe Rail members' magazine Issue #1 - Spring 2016 (Combe Rail - Charitable Incorporated Organization 1164083) WELCOME! A warm welcome to all new members of Combe Rail! As of 4th April 2016, membership stands at 88, with new supporters joining each week. This is a remarkable achievement for the four months we've been in operation, and testifies to the great affection in which the Ilfracombe-Barnstaple railway is still held. Combe Rail was set up to "preserve the heritage" of this railway, and we already have several exciting plans in place (see below.) This newsletter, The Devon Belle, will also play its part in preserving the line's heritage, by collecting and publishing YOUR articles, histories, memories and photographs. Two recent Facebook groups Railway to Ilfracombe…in Pictures and Reversing Beeching - The Ilfracombe Line have produced a treasure-trove of photos and recollections - but as is often the way with Facebook, many photos are uncredited, and interesting information can be spread across separate threads. The Devon Belle will be the first regular (quarterly) periodical about the line, and all articles will be indexed, to create an ever-growing reference work. If you have memories to share, photos, or even an article for publication, send them to us at [email protected] NEWS GIFT AID PLEA If you are a UK income tax payer, we can reclaim 25% of your annual membership subscription from HMRC.

Recommendation: It is recommended that planning permission is granted subject to the conditions set out in Appendix I of this report (with any subsequent changes to the conditions being agreed in consultation with the Chair and Local Member). 1. Summary 1.1 This report relates to a planning application for the construction of an off-road trail between Buttercombe Barton and Spreacombe Bridge, located between Ilfracombe and Braunton. 1.2 It is considered that the main material planning considerations in the determination of this application are the impacts of the development on the amenity of adjoining neighbours; impacts on nature conservation interests; highway safety matters; and the benefits of the proposal in terms of economy and sustainability. 2. The Proposal/Background 2.1 The application site extends approximately 3km from Buttercombe Barton, which is 5km south of Ilfracombe, to Spreacombe Bridge, 3km north of Braunton, and seeks to connect to previously consented developments that will link Buttercombe Lane to Willingcott and Spreacombe Bridge to Knowle.

“The Mallets at Ash”
“THE MALLETS AT ASH” This history forms chapter five of my book “ASH: an ancient estate in north Devon”. It will be followed on this website by chapter 6: “House and buildings”, and chapter 7: “Upstairs, downstairs”, in the fairly near future. The remainder of my book deals with Anglo-Saxon and Medieval Ash, and post- Mallet times to the present day. The complete book is available from me at [email protected] Dave Dingley Dowland Devon There is news of pictures of the Mallets at Ash which should be available later in 2007 CHAPTER FIVE: THE MALLETS AT ASH. 5.1 BACKGROUND: THE END OF THE MIDDLE AGES In the 16th C England gradually emerged from the rigid archaism of feudalism, and from a countryside of warring barons & wandering outlaws; and despite the occasional bloody bitterness of the Reformation – particularly in the Devon countryside, which clung to its old Catholic ways well into Elizabethan times – the land progressively became a more ordered and safer place. Husbandry in Devon in the 16th & 17th centuries apparently developed into some of the best in the country [2]; its entirely enclosed non-communal agriculture was more efficient, and locally more flexible than the long-abandoned open-field system, as each lord strove to utilise his land to its best potential. The infield/outfield system of earlier times remained popular (known as “ley” farming in the 17th C), since pasture was always plentiful in N Devon on slopes & wetlands, ensuring that pastoralism retained its dominance. Devon became one of the leading textile counties in the 16th C, and Exeter, Totnes, and then Barnstaple became trade centres [10].
