  • Tunnels Beaches North Devon SS516479
    Tunnels Beaches North Devon SS516479 View over the coves towards Crewkorne Cove and the Ladies’ Pool Beach Profile for Coastwise North Devon Janet and Robert Down Introduction and Historical Background No description of Tunnels Beaches is complete without an overview of their history and place in the development of Ilfracombe. The beaches are unique in North Devon for their mixture of atmosphere, ambience and commercialism. Tunnels Beaches are part of the seaside and harbour town of Ilfracombe, and have an interesting history. The town has long been a fishing and trading port, with the natural harbour enhanced by a Georgian jetty. In the late 1700s Ilfracombe became a fashionable spa and sea-bathing destination for wealthy Georgians and a number of hotels, guest houses and public rooms were established. Bathing was centred round Raparree Cove to the East of the harbour and in 1803 the town’s status as a resort was confirmed by its inclusion in the national “Guide to all the Watering and Sea Bathing Places”. The coast on either side of Ilfracombe is deeply indented because of geological folding, and prior to this surge in popularity two sheltered coves, Wildersmouth and Crewkhorne, about half a mile west of the harbour had been extensively used by smugglers, mainly because they were inaccessible by land except for the very agile at low tide. It is also recorded that, even earlier, William de Tracy hid in one of the caves here after the murder of Thomas a Beckett. He was one of the four knights who Page 2 of 7 responded to Henry II’s reputed question “will no one rid me of this turbulent priest ?” when the King and his Archbishop fell out badly in 1170.

    The US Army in North Devon Second World War US Army Training Structures In December 1941 The United States of America entered the 2nd World War when its Pacific Fleet Naval Base at Pearl Harbour in Hawaii was attacked by the Japanese aircraft. This was quickly followed by a declaration of war by Japan’s Allies Germany and Italy. The Americans were initially unprepared for a war in Europe and through 1942 the American nation quickly mobilised their war industries and expanded their armed forces. By the summer of 1940 Germany had occupied northern Europe but after the Battle of Britain and the declaration of war on the Soviet Union in June 1941, the Germans had adopted a defensive strategy along the English Channel Coast. As the German War effort began to founder in Russia, the decision was taken at the Cassablanca Conference in January 1943 to make a cross channel invasion of the continent of Europe. However, in 1942 the disastrous raid by Canadians and the British at Dieppe in France, reinforced German desire to step up work in constructing the so called “Atlantic Wall” and emphasised the need to for the Americans to undertake training for the proposed cross channel invasion. In 1943, no principle existed in the US Army for assaulting a heavily fortified and defensively prepared coastline and this lack of readiness and need for specialised training led to the formation of an Assault Training Center on the coast of North Devon. The task was allocated to Lieutenant Colonel Paul W Thompson who activated the Assault Training Center in April 1943 although at that stage no practice ground had been established.

    VICTORIAN RURAL POLICEMAN Mini Project 2017 Rural Constabularies were established following the Royal Commission which met between 1836 and 1839, the County Police Act of 1839 and the amending Act of 1840. In 1856 the County and Borough Police Act made the establishing of a police force mandatory for all counties and boroughs. All the police men in the mini project are listed as Police Constables in the 1881 census.

  • 2020.05.04 Resettlement Scheme for Refugees Appendix 2 , Item 129
    APPENDIX 2 CHULMLEIGH COMMUNITY WELCOME We are a group of local residents working together to welcome a refugee family, displaced by the Syrian war, to Chulmleigh. Many of us will have seen the pictures of refugees on the move or stuck in camps and felt helpless. Their plight is back in the news and nearly nine years on from the start of the war the camps are still filling up. This is our chance to do something for one family. Known as community sponsorship, this is a home office scheme, in partnership with Devon County and District council. The family will probably come from one of the settlements or camps in countries neighbouring Syria (where there is a huge waiting list of families waiting to be resettled) and they will be fully security vetted. We have the support of the Pickwell foundation who have already helped welcome families to Georgeham and Barnstaple and will be our lead sponsor and legal entity. The family will have full refugee rights, including the right to work, attend school, access the health service, benefits and so on. From the aid budget there is some funding towards the costs of schooling and learning English. Our job as a group is to help find and equip a house suitable for a small family, probably from the private rental market, which will accept housing benefit and needs to be available for two years. To raise at least 9,000 pounds to cover the cost of interpreters and for extras like laptops or taxi fares. To make sure the various agencies such as schools and surgeries are aware that the family is coming and will welcome them.
