  • Leighonmendip PARISH PLAN 2006 2 History to Present
    2.0 HISTORICAL VILLAGE TO THE CURRENT DAY 2.1 History The Parish of Leigh on Mendip lies on the north facing slopes of the Mendip Hills approximately half way between the market towns of Frome and Shepton Mallet. The actual village of Leigh on Mendip is a linear settlement running east to west on a plateau of carboniferous limestone called the Mendip Plateau. There is evidence of human activity dating back to pre-Roman times. Prior to the expansion of Halecombe quarry, there were signs of flint working in the area but, with the obliteration of the evidence, it is not known whether the material being worked was a small, localised, igneous intrusion (as at Moonshill quarry, Stoke St. Michael) or material imported to the site. Pottery shards have also been discovered in the area. 1 First mention of the area of land we now know as Leigh on Mendip is in a record from Glastonbury Abbey dated 681 AD chronicling the gift of land by Hedda, Bishop of Winchester to the Abbey. The parish is referred to as Luntocae – in fact a very Roman sounding name – and probably the source of the pronunciation of the name “Leigh” to this day. As far as documentary evidence is concerned using the modern name, the earliest document to mention Leigh on Mendip is a charter by King Edmund dated 942 AD granting land to Glastonbury Abbey. The Parish of Leigh on Mendip was part of that land and remained so until the dissolution of the monasteries in the 1530’s. At that time, Glastonbury Abbey was the most powerful and wealthy religious institution in England.

  • MENDIP BUTTERFLY PROJECT a SOARING SUCCESS Somerset Wildlife Trust Has Now Successfully Completed Its Year-Long 'Making Space
    MENDIP BUTTERFLY PROJECT A SOARING SUCCESS Somerset Wildlife Trust has now successfully completed its year-long ‘Making Space for Butterflies in Mendip’ project with Aggregate Industries (AI), which worked to improve butterfly habitat and food sources in the Mendip Hills area. Thanks to a £22,000 grant from The Wildlife Trusts and AI’s Local Partnerships Fund, a range of grassland and woodland habitat restoration work, including woodland ride management, thinning, hedgelaying, coppicing and fencing works, has been carried out at Somerset Wildlife Trust’s Cheddar Wood Nature Reserve and at wildflower grasslands around Aggregate Industries’ Torr Quarry. Opening up woodland rides and glades, thinning woodland, and the traditional management technique of coppicing are all important ways of enhancing the structural diversity of the woodland. This work ensures there are areas of older denser woodland, as well as newer growth and areas that are opened up to allow more light into woodland rides and glades. Volunteers coppicing hazel in Cheddar Wood This allows woodland plants and flowers to flourish, which are essential for supporting Mendip woodland butterflies and other invertebrates. Having all these different habitats within the same woodland allow it to support a larger range of wildlife including fungi, mosses and lichens, small mammals, invertebrates and birds. The coppicing volunteer days also provided training in traditional woodland skills for nine long-term unemployed volunteers from partner organisation Osprey Outdoors CIC. Thinning and ride-opening works carried out at Cheddar Wood. In East Mendip, removing dense bramble and installing fencing on grasslands close to Torr Works Quarry has enabled grazing to be reintroduced.

The review and assessment of air quality takes the form of an Updating and Screening Assessment (USA) every three years, which is intended to identify significant changes that may have occurred since the previous rounds of Review and Assessment. This includes new monitoring data; new or changed emission sources and any local changes that may affect air quality. Progress Reports are produced in the interim years between USAs to keep stakeholders informed of changes and allow the local authority to take early steps to protect air quality if there are doubts about achieving any objective. If either the USA or Progress Report raises doubts as to whether an air quality objective will be achieved, then a Detailed Assessment is conducted to evaluate the risk that the objective will not be achieved. If the Detailed Assessment concludes that a risk exists, then consideration must be given to declaring an Air Quality Management Area and an Air Quality Action Plan should be introduced.

We describe: • the activities in the catchment which affect the water environment and the uses made of water • the NRA’s objectives and targets for the water environment, described under five headings - water quality, water quantity, groundwater protection, physical features and flood defence • the state of the catchment is assessed in relation to the five categories of objectives.
