The nearby small town of Chulmleigh is 4 miles away, and is positioned above the Taw Valley offering a range of shops, a bank, a health centre and schooling up to GCSE level. The market town of South Molton is within 6.5 miles and has a more comprehensive range of shops, banks and schooling, a supermarket as well as weekly livestock and farmers markets and the nearby independent West Buckland School, for which a school bus pick up point is 1.75 miles away at Gidley Cross. The town of Tiverton, about 16 miles away, is an old market town with an historic castle. There are several supermarkets and a wide range of shops in the town, together with schools for all ages, including the independent Blundell's School. There is also a hospital, sports centre and an 18-hole golf course. The A361 (North Devon Link Road) can be accessed within 7 miles and provides a link to the M5 motorway at Junction 27, nearby to which is Tiverton Parkway rail station with mainline services to London Paddington. Exeter and Bristol Airports have flights to many UK and European cities. From the farm there is easy access to the Exmoor National Park, known for its hundreds of square miles of superb unspoilt scenery, and the North Devon beaches of Putsborough, Saunton, Croyde and Woolacombe are all within reach. Introduction South Week house has been thoughtfully improved by the present owners but retains much of its character and original features. It is a light and spacious house, of stone construction underneath a slate roof, with brick arches above the openings for the timber windows and doors. As well as improving the accommodation, the owners have also installed a log fired boiler under the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) scheme and solar PV panels on the roof of the double garage under the Feed-in Tariff (FIT) scheme. South Week also includes an attractive mix of land uses including meadows, pasture fields, woodland with a small lake and a stream. The land has been farmed organically for many years and so the amenity value is significantly enhanced by the species-rich nature of the meadows. In total, the property extends to 15.69 acres (6.35 hectares) although an additional 157.81 acres (63.86 hectares) is also available. South Week.qxp_Stags 31/05/2016 09:00 Page 6 South Week.qxp_Stags 31/05/2016 09:00 Page 7 South Week The accommodation is arranged over three floors and including the attached Cider Barn extends to 4,740 square feet. There are five bedrooms although the second floor room could form the 6th bedroom if required. The front door opens into an entrance hall which stretches the width of the house, with terracotta floor tiles, a patio door out to the rear garden and a turning staircase made of Oak leading to the first floor. A door leads off to a cloakroom with flagstone floor. The living room is a welcoming space, with a triple aspect, solid wood floor, exposed beams and an open fire with a slate hearth. A large window overlooks the gardens, meadows and lake. The farmhouse kitchen / dining room is the heart of the house, with a flagstone floor with under-floor heating, an extensive range of fitted cupboards with granite worktops including an island unit and integrated fridge / freezer, microwave, dishwasher and electric oven and the original meat hooks hang from the ceiling. The former brick fireplace is now home to an electric Aga with four-ovens and a separate hob. Patio doors open to the western section of the garden The sitting room has a hard wood floor, ceiling coving and a fireplace with a wood-burner and a slate hearth. A second staircase leads to the first floor and there is a door out to the garden. The bookcase is a ‘hidden door’ opening into the Cider Barn. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a boot room with a flagstone floor and a door to the parking area, and there is also a utility/laundry room with a Belfast sink. The first floor galleried landing is a wide and light space and includes a study / office area with a window overlooking the gardens and meadows. The solid wood floors extend throughout the whole floor. The master bedroom has a triple aspect with a large window to the south with views over the small lake and a feature window above. Doors open on to a Juliet Balcony facing east. There is a wood-burner with a raised slate hearth, exposed roof timbers and an integrated wardrobe. The adjoining bathroom has a dual aspect, exposed timbers and beams, deep window sills and panelling. There is a free-standing roll-top bath, a bidet, wash basin, W.C. and separate shower cubicle with glass screen. The second bedroom is south-facing and the third bedroom faces south and west, both double rooms. Bedrooms two and three are served by the second bathroom which includes exposed beams, a panelled bath, wash basin, W.C. and a separate shower cubicle with a free standing shower. Turning a corner, the wide landing continues where the fourth and fifth bedrooms are found, both double rooms facing west, one with a Victorian style fireplace hiding a cupboard behind and the other with an integrated wardrobe. South Week.qxp_Stags 31/05/2016 09:00 Page 8 South Week.qxp_Stags 31/05/2016 09:00 Page 9 There are steps down to the third bathroom which includes exposed beams, a panelled bath, wash basin, W.C. and a separate shower cubicle. Stairs lead up to the second floor which is presently used as a gym / recreation space but could form a sixth bedroom with its own bathroom. A laundry storage room is located at the end of the hallway which could, if required, form a first floor entrance into the adjoining Cider Barn. The Cider Barn Attached to the northern elevation of South Week house, and with a connecting door already in place, the Cider Barn provides a large double- storey space which could be converted to extend the present accommodation or for use as an annexe, subject to planning consent being obtained. The original cider press remains in situ and the space is heated by the log- fired boiler system whilst the roof has also been insulated. Outside The house is approached from the entrance lane over a stone parking and turning area which lies to the front (north) of the house and is flanked by a dry stone wall with flower beds to one side. The Double Garage and wood store has a concrete floor and also houses the log-fired boiler on the ground floor, with a storage space above that could be converted to office or staff accommodation as electricity and heating supplies are already in place. On the eastern, southern and western elevations are the gardens, enclosed by a low level stone wall with a terrace and lawn to the south and interspersed with flower and shrub beds, including a dining area and low level walled garden with flagstone tiles on the western side. In addition, to the east of the garage, accessed from the entrance lane, there is an open-fronted Pole Barn to be used for parking and machinery storage The Land The land within South Week comprises an attractive and varied mix of land uses, including just under 13 acres of pasture with a stream flowing near the southern boundary, about 1.5 acres of attractive woodland with an abundance of bluebells during the spring months and a small lake. The land enhances the setting of South Week in addition to providing wildlife and conservation appeal. Additional Land A further 157 acres of productive pasture, culm grassland and attractive mixed woodland is available to purchase as a separate lot. If purchased with South Week, alternative, more flexible access arrangements can be arranged to ‘link’ the two lots. South Week.qxp_Stags 31/05/2016 09:00 Page 10 Approx.

  • Here It Became Obvious That Hollacombe Crediton and Not Hollacombe Winkleigh Was Implied and Quite a Different Proposition
    INTRODUCTION In 1876 Charles Worthy wrote “The History of the Manor and Church of Winkleigh”, the first and only book on Winkleigh to be published. Although this valuable little handbook contains many items of interest, not all of which fall within the range of its title, it is not a complete history and consequently fails to meet the requirements of the Devonshire Association. More than a dozen years ago a friend remarked to me that the monks of Crediton at one time used to walk to Hollacombe in order to preach at the ancient chapel of Hollacombe Barton. I was so surprised by this seemingly long trek that I made enquiries of the Devonshire Association. I was referred to the Tower Library of Crediton Church where it became obvious that Hollacombe Crediton and not Hollacombe Winkleigh was implied and quite a different proposition. Meantime the Honorary General Editor of the Parochial Section (Hugh R. Watkins Esq.) suggested that I should write a history of Winkleigh. The undertaking was accepted although it was clear that my only qualification for the task was a deep regard for the associations of the parish combined with a particularly intense love for the hamlet of Hollacombe. The result of this labour of love, produced in scanty spare time, and spread over the intervening years should be considered with these points in view. The proof of this present pudding will be measured by the ease with which the less immediately interesting parts can be assimilated by the general reader. Due care has been taken to verify all the subject matter.

  • Civilian Evacuation to Devon in the Second World War
    VOLUME 1 OF 2 CIVILIAN EVACUATION TO DEVON IN THE SECOND WORLD WAR Submitted by S.J. HESS as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History, 2006 CIVILIAN EVACUATION TO DEVON IN THE SECOND WORLD WAR Submitted by Susan Jane Hess, to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History, July 2006. This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. ………………………………………. 1 ABSTRACT Extensive sources have been reviewed and analysed to piece together for the first time a detailed academic study of civilian evacuation to Devon1 viewed against the national backdrop. The primary focus of this thesis is the large number of unaccompanied children who were officially evacuated to the County under the auspices of the Government Evacuation Scheme during the Second World War. However, Chapter Six discusses the evacuation of mothers and accompanying children, unofficial (private) evacuees and private school parties. The majority of evacuated children arriving in Devon originated from the London area and southeastern counties. In addition large numbers of children were also evacuated to the County from Bristol and within the County from Plymouth (Devon) during 1941 and briefly from Exeter in May 1942. Each of the three national evacuation waves is considered individually throughout the text as they are quite distinct in complexion, a fact frequently ignored in generalised accounts which tend to focus on reaction to the initial wave.
