  • 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.

  • Council Minutes
    MID DEVON DISTRICT COUNCIL MINUTES of an EXTRAORDINARY MEETING of the MID DEVON DISTRICT COUNCIL held on Wednesday 3 April 2013 at 6.00pm Present Councillors: Mrs B M Hull (Chairman) Mrs E Andrews, Mrs H Bainbridge, E J Berry, Mrs D L Brandon, R J Chesterton, Mrs F J Colthorpe, D R Coren, N V Davey, W J Daw, R M Deed, R Evans, Mrs S Fox, A V G Griffiths, Mrs S Griggs, P H D Hare-Scott, P J Heal, Mrs L J Holloway, D J Knowles, M R Lee, M A Lucas, E G Luxton, D F Pugsley, Mrs J R Rendle, Mrs J Roach, F J Rosamond, C R Slade, J D Squire, Mrs M E Squires, R L Stanley, P F Williams, K D Wilson, Mrs N Woollatt and R Wright Apologies Councillors: M D Binks, C J Eginton, T G Hughes, R F Radford and T W Snow 120 PUBLIC QUESTION TIME Mrs J Larcombe, referring to Item 3 (Council Tax Resolution 2013/14), expressed concern that Council Taxpayers money was being wasted by sending out revised Council Tax bills. She asked why other District Councils had advised Parishes about benefit changes some five months prior to this District Council having done so. The Chief Executive stated that the Council had notified Parishes about the Council Tax Support Scheme once the outcome of the Government consultation had been completed. It was morally wrong to continue with the current Council Tax resolution knowing that it was incorrect. County Councillor D Hannon, also referring to Item 3, asked how the error with the Council Tax bills had been allowed to happen and what action would the appropriate Cabinet Member be taking.

  • Walks Around Winkleigh
    Walks Around Winkleigh WINKLEIGH Winkleigh is among a group of large villages or small towns situated on the higher points of the mid-Devon plateau, Winkleigh being about 550 ft above sea level. Its large hilltop church can command huge prospects. It lies on the watershed between Taw and Torridge, with the north part of the vi1lage draining to the Torridge and the rest to the Taw. Like most Saxon foundations, Winkleigh was probab1y in existence by 800 AD, a group of farmers coming together for defence, and for the sharing of equipment. It probably had an open-field farming arrangement, but all evidence has long since gone. Winkleigh was, and is, an ‘open’ village, that is there was not a single squire family who owned the whole place and more or less determined what went on. The situation of having two Norman castle mounds belonging to separate families was never resolved. In many cases a squire gave permission for a regular weekly market, which made it a town, but Winkleigh remains a village though with an annual Fair now over 750 years old. Typically its population reached a peak at the 1851 census of 1,554 declining with the agricultural depression to 881 in 1931, before rising again to its current figure of about 1,600 with new commuter housing. One major reason for decline was that the railway followed the Taw valley and not the old stage roads. In Kelly’s Directory for 1902 there were four major landowners including the earl of Portsmouth and at least 25 separate trades are mentioned, including expected rural businesses, such as the miller and wheelwright, but also dressmakers, photographers, earthenware dealer and watchsmith.

  • Formal Meeting Agenda
    Thelbridge Parish Council Minutes July 11th, 2018 Janet de Rochefort, Parish Clerk 01884 860173 [email protected] http://thelbridge.btck.co.uk Present: Cllrs Boundy, Gillbard, Grant, Webber, Cllr Squires (DCC & MDDC) Apologies: Cllrs Ford, Gibson, Hayes, Cllr Binks (MDDC) I. Public forum One member of the public from Nomansland regarding grass cutting. Some grass being cut by a neighbour who has to pay for the cuttings to be removed. MDDC would not provide free of charge sacks. Visibility onto the B3137 is now impaired due to the height of the grass. The feeling is that enough has been paid in Council Tax to keep the service going. II. Approval of minutes from last meeting Minutes for 16th May 2018 were signed. III. Declarations of interest Cllr Grant has a current planning application for the Laurels. IV. To receive reports (if any) from:- Cllr. Squires has taken some photos of the state of the road between Thelbridge Cross Inn and Churchyard Lane and will follow up with Highways. This year is 100 years since the suffragettes won votes for women. Then it was votes for women over thirty, thanks to them starting the movement women today can take part in all areas of democracy. At Devon County Council we again have a female Chairman Cllr Caroline Chugg and we have councillors in the Cabinet in both DCC and MDDC that are ladies. Nationally we have a lady Prime Minister and it is great that women are now recognised on an equal basis. Locally MDDC had a tree planting ceremony in Peoples’ Park in Tiverton on 6th July in celebration.

  • Chairman's Message
    2011 No. 1 February Reg. Charity No.228966 CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE It is with regret that I have to announce that two of our long standing volunteers have resigned. Peter Reay and Ian Farrell between them have served the Society for over twenty-five years. Peter has been editing the Devon Bird Report from 1999 and wrote a section prior to that year. His keenness to ensure accuracy with each report is a testament to him. I worked closely with Peter for six years whilst County Recorder and I know the loss of his service to the Society will be greatly missed. Ian, will be known to members in recent years as our webmaster a job which he performs with enthusiasm and dedication. I first met Ian when acting as legal advisor to the Society on the wording of its new constitution when I first noticed his commitment, business acumen and a keenness to get the job done, a style he showed throughout his service as a trustee on Council, as Chairman of the Publishing Group and right up to present as Vice Chairman. On behalf of the Society I would like to thank both Peter and Ian for their service to the Society and wish them the very best for the future. Whilst Chairman I have set myself various tasks, last year it was the completion of the Birds of Devon book and ensuring the preparation of the Devon Tetrad Atlas was on a sound footing, both thankfully were achieved. This year my task is probably more difficult in that I will attempt to find volunteers to fill vacancies on Council and other posts that are vacant.

  • Of Dr. John Huxham
    Medical History, 1981, 25: 415421. THE FAME AND NOTORIETY OF DR. JOHN HUXHAM by WILLIAM SCHUPBACH* JOHN HUXHAM, M.D., F.R.S., F.R.C.P. Edinburgh (c. 1692-1768), was an English physician whose practice was confined to Plymouth but whose writings were read throughout Europe. His literary career started with his Observationes de aere et morbis epidemicis (1739), in which meteorological records made at Plymouth from 1728 to 1737 were collated month by month with the diseases observed there. Further volumes followed the same plan from 1738 to 1748, and from 1748 to 1752. In these works there is a now conspicuous contrast between the meteorological records, which are elaborately quantified according to a scheme laid down by James Jurin, F.R.S., in 1723, and the notes on morbidity and mortality, which are superficial and sometimes reduced to names of prevalent diseases. To do justice to the extensive medical knowledge which he acquired in compiling these observations, Huxham therefore published separate treatises on the Devonshire colic, on diphtheria, on smallpox, and his best-known work, An essay on fevers (1750), which was translated into Latin, French, and Italian. Here Huxham discussed the conditions under which fevers appeared, the different types of fevers, and the remedies which, according to his reasoning, should tend to cure them. Hippocrates, "the best and oldest master of our profession"',' is. the presiding genius of the work, but Sydenham and Huxham's teacher Boerhaave are also drawn on, and Huxham's own cases are introduced at intervals.2 Huxham's writings must have been received with great interest, for they were published in London, Edinburgh, Amsterdam, Bremen, Munich, Paris, Venice, Naples, and Lisbon.
