Leonard s Tower, Newton Abbot LI ST OF ILLUSTRATIONS Bradley Woods, Newton Abbot Berry Pomeroy Castle Salcombe Kingsbridge Salcombe Castle S Bolt Head, alcombe Brent S O U T H D E V O N INTRODU C TORY PER HAPS there is no rigorously defined region in cluded under the title of South Devon , but there is a general idea that it may be said to be within a line from Teignmouth to Modbury, spreading inward in an irregular sort of way . Without any W doubt the principal place ithin the area, though it cannot by any means be called a capital or centre , is Torquay . It has the largest total of population , and it is also the most considerable place of local government in the district , besides being the largest borough , though also the most recent in creation , Tor u inians too . It would flatter q not a little to suggest it had a Capital character ; but it has not quite that qualification , though it is easily first in its own particular way, and there is no flattery at all in saying this . The town is perhaps cosmo 2 S O U T H D E V O N —at — politan times rather than metropolitan , and , after all , it is only a matter of words and not of moment . No other place in South Devon has such attractions , and it is proper to mention its position in relation to the area which will be dealt with as we go . Curiously enough , while it has a great , or considerable , seaboard , it has no great commerce by sea ; though , again , it is not without signs of activity in that direction . And it believes in itself so thoroughly , as a town of such fine position has right to do , that it has founded , and keeps in active operation , a Chamber of Commerce . This is a healthy condition of things , and quite upsets the idea that climate in South Devon is responsible for the air of dolcefa r niente which so many say is the spirit of the district . This much is said to show that the beautiful portion of Devon which will come under notice is not without that sign of active everyday life so many seek to find , even when in search of sunshine and the picturesque , liking this to be flavoured with the practical . There are other practical towns in the area, towns that make no pretence to being resorts , which serve useful purposes in the economy of things , places in which business and push are perhaps more evident ; but we shall see that in all I N T R O D U C T O R Y 3 O fthem the visitor will find much charm and en o j yment . It is not intended to set up comparisons between places , but , as far as possible , to show what are the charms of this delightful district : not with overlaid detail , but with a light touch , so that the enjoyment may be more complete by allowing for the seeking out of some beauties not set forth , possibly . There is no pretence that this is an exhaustive treatment of the subject , but simply one for the good enjoyment of it . w In dealing ith a district , it seems wise to have i in a po nt upon which interest may centre , and this case the natural course is to make Torquay the place . If other towns were consulted , there l might be other views , and perhaps excel ent reasons for them . But no such consultation has “ O f been thought , and yet there is no axe to l grind for anywhere . The places considered wil be pleased to accept this enunciation , and readers l . no doubt wi l not trouble about it They , it is to And be hoped , will be pleased also . if they have not yet known South Devon , it is hard if, when — they make its acquaintance thoroughly, it is to be — hoped , they will not be pleased indeed . People of South Devon are as confident that their section is the most delightful of any portion 4 S O U T H D E V O N — — of the county or of the country as are they of North Devon as to theirs ; and good is it that they hold this view. It pleases them and does no harm to anybody . It is a spirit of patriotism that is worth encouraging, in these days when patriotism is none too marked anywhere in the land , or of it . Devonians are clannish to a degree , and they of the South as keen as their Northern cousins . There is a touch of the Kelt about the whole of them , and yet perhaps they are stronger Devonians outside the county than in it . Some leave the county for its good , some for their own , and they who stay do so for excellent motives— if only to care for that increasing multitude of visitors who are finding out, or trying to discover, the whole extent of the attractiveness of Devon . And it is a curious thing that the persons who become D evonian by residence end in being as warm - county folk as they to the manner born . It is in the air and soil , and even in the tears that are said to fall so much from heaven in Devon— though this . too , perhaps , has had exaggeration . TO persons of an artistic or poetic temperament the glamour of South Devon , its colour and its atmosphere , is something more than a phantasy ; it is real enough . All the same , it is not necessary I N T R O D U C T O R Y 5 to be only of the temperament indicated to ap ’ ia rec te . p nature s gifts It is , too , a land for the v practical person , for it is a fruitful land , gi ing back amply for the work done . Nature is lavish in reward , and of course , and equally , if there is no work she will revert to the wild more quickly than elsewhere . This is but looking at facts practically . The age may be practical and up to date , but to many there is great charm in a country or a district that has had a past . The past of South Devon has been very glorious , in common , it must be said , with all parts of the famous shire , from and before—Queen Elizabeth ’s day to the present . O f O f time Poets the county , the past , may perhaps have held a brief that has a prepossessed air about it , but this inspiration had gripped their l imaginations very thoroughly . Thus sang Wil iam ’ B r ita nnia s Pa stor a ls Browne , author of , somewhere between the years 1 5 90 and 1 6 45 : Hail then , my native soil thou blessed plot, ’ Whose equal all the world aflorde th not " S how me who can so many crystal rills, S - uch sweet clothed valleys, or aspiring hills S uch woods, gran d pastures, quarries , wealthy mines , S uch rocks in which the diamond fairly shin es An d t if the ear h can show the like again , in - Yet will she fail her sea ruling men . 6 S O U T H D E V O N ’ Time n ever can produce men to o ertak e The fames of Grenville , Davis , Gilbert, Drake , O r worthy Hawkins , or of thousands more That by their pow er made the Devonian shore Mock the proud Tagus for w hose richest spoil The boasting Spaniard left the I ndian soil w Bankrupt of store, k no ing it would cost By winning this , though all the rest were lost . - The native born , and the visitor who has grown to know the district familiarly , can ask the same - question to day as did Browne , in relation to the S l . park ing rills , and with the same spirit South Devon is essentially a land of rippling rills , clear - and crystal like , making music the livelong day and year . It is the complaint of some that rain and shower and mist play too prominent a place in the weather scheme here , but they make for beauty , charm , and also for utility . They course “ ” adown the aspiring hills of the poet , through - the sweet clothed valleys , anon amid woods , and “ then quietly along the grand pastures , finding their way, ever and anon , into the many rivers that go singing to the sea .

  • South Molton Mechanics Institute
    South Molton Mechanics Institute Mechanics’ Institutes were self-improvement organisations. Originally they were primarily intended to spread knowledge and learning amongst the newly emerging artisan classes created by the Industrial Revolution. They were local, independent organisations but generally based on the same principle, usually containing a library, reading room, lecture room and sometimes a small museum. The oldest Mechanics’ Institute in England was established in Holborn, London in 1823 and by 1850 there were about 700 in the UK. During the 1860s the number of Institutes gradually dwindled with those that did survive becoming almost exclusively the preserve of the middle and professional classes. Extracted from various web sites The Mechanics Institute at South Molton was established comparatively late on 1st January 1856. At this time South Molton had a population of approximately 4,500 with less than 1000 households. Only 150 residents had the vote. The Pannier Market had not yet been built but there was a Market House (later converted to a Post Office), plus stalls erected on Broad Street on market days. The Market House had been built on pillars and arches with rooms above which were used for meetings etc. There were two woollen mills which were doing well due to supplying blankets to the army during the Crimean war. The mills employed between 200-300 men and women plus about 80 boys and girls. The children received a few hours schooling a day. There were also several wool staplers and wool dealers in the town. There were two tanneries and the usual mix of artisans.

  • The United Benefice of Dartmouth and Dittisham 'A Growing, Joy-Filled Christian Presence at the Heart of Our Communities'
    The United Benefice of Dartmouth and Dittisham 'A growing, joy-filled Christian presence at the heart of our communities' www.dartmouthanddittisham.co.uk The deep, sheltered waters of Dartmouth’s harbour offered destiny; with both hands, its medieval people grasped it. The sea was a thoroughfare for Englishmen setting out on the religious and secular wars of medieval times, and its harbour lent the town national importance. From here, men went off to the three crusades; they went on pilgrimages from here to Santiago de Compostela. Dartmouth an Enchanted Place, Joselin Fiennes, 2013 A Shipman was ther, woninge fer by weste; For ught I woot, he was of Dertemouthe. Chaucer, Prologue to the Canterbury Tales. The place of the church within this beautiful town and charming village is as vibrant and central as it was in the fourteenth century. Image courtesy of Shaunagh Radcliffe 1 ARCHDEACON’S FOREWORD Geographically, the parishes of Dartmouth and Dittisham occupy some of the most strikingly beautiful coastal and river scenery in England. Their ancient maritime and civic traditions give them exceptional historic significance. Britannia Royal Naval College is a prominent feature of Dartmouth in every sense. But it is as diverse communities with a strong desire for the pastoral ministry of the Church of England, with healthy, mission-minded parish churches operating in a classically Anglican tradition of worship and service, that these two parishes offer exceptional opportunities for a gifted priest to make a difference as their next Vicar. He or she will have strong foundations on which to build, in a benefice where leadership and oversight have been offered to a high standard over the past decade.

  • 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.

  • Record of Decision Lease of Land and Building Quaywest Waterpark
    Record of Decision Lease of Land and Building Quaywest Waterpark, Goodrington, Paignton Decision Taker Elected Mayor on 23 January 2019 Decision That the Assistant Director of Business Services, in consultation with the Chief Executive, be authorised to grant a lease renewal of 25 years with a further option of 15 years of the land and building known as Quaywest Waterpark, Goodrington, Paignton to Lemur Waterparks Limited (Company Number 06883534) as shown in plan no. 16 145 003. Reason for the Decision It is considered the lease renewal of the land and buildings known as Quaywest Waterpark, Goodrington, Paignton to Lemur Waterparks Limited to be in the best interests of the Council and will secure the long term future of the facility. Implementation This decision will come into force and may be implemented on 31 January 2019 unless the call- in procedure is triggered (as set out in Standing Orders in relation to Overview and Scrutiny).
