A geophysical Matthew survey was undertaken at three sites, including the Castle site, the later manorial Charlton site, and a small survey 2 km south west of Castle Cary, at Dimmer. The focus of the article will be the main castle site centred in the town (see Figure 1) which will provide a brief history of the site, followed by the results of the survey and subsequent interpretation. Location and Topography Castle Cary is a small town in south east Somerset, lying within the Jurassic belt of geology, approximately at the junction of the upper lias and the inferior and upper oolites. Building stone is plentiful, and is orange to yellow in colour. This is the source of the River Cary, which now runs to the Bristol Channel via King’s Sedgemoor Drain and the River Parrett, but prior to 1793 petered out within Sedgemoor. The site occupies a natural spur formed by two conjoining, irregularly shaped mounds extending from the north east to the south west. The ground gradually rises to the north and, more steeply, to the east, and falls away to the south.

  • IMPORTANT MESSAGE from MARTOCK and SOUTH PETHERTON PATIENT PARTICIPATION GROUP I’M a Member of the Martock and South Petherton Patient Participation Group
    IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM MARTOCK AND SOUTH PETHERTON PATIENT PARTICIPATION GROUP I’m a member of the Martock and South Petherton Patient Participation Group. Yesterday ( Friday ) I met the Practice Manager and her colleagues at South Petherton Surgery. Could you please circulate the following: ‘In common with other practices in the country, due to the present CORVID 19 situation, the South Somerset Primary Care Network are identifying specific surgeries to cater for specific patient needs. All initial contact with a surgery will be via a telephone triage system which may result in a call back from a Doctor or a Nurse Practitioner/Health Coach. A patients call could be picked up from any of the surgeries in the network. If a patient is required to attend for a face to face appointment they will be asked to attend a specific surgery to cater for their individual needs. This may not be their usual surgery and may be at either the Crewkerne Health Centre, Buttercross Health Centre in Somerton, Martock Surgery, or West One at Crewkerne. The keys messages are: • Only contact the surgery if you really need to. • Be ready to answer questions not only about your health but also that of other occupants in your house. • Do not turn up at the surgery to book an appointment. • Phone the surgery first at all times. • Be prepared to attend an unfamiliar surgery. he bringing together of local practices under the umbrella of Symphony has provided a high degree of resilience for its patients. All the staff are working long hours to ensure patient safety.

  • Somerset Library Services Consultation 2018 Summary Proposal
    Somerset Library Services Consultation 2018 Summary Proposal Tell us your views on how we are proposing to deliver future library services in Chard, Crewkerne, Ilminster and surrounding area - Area 5 - Chard, Crewkerne, Ilminster libraries. We’d like to invite you to tell us your views on some potential changes we are considering making to the future delivery of library services in your community and across Somerset. Somerset County Council is fully committed to continuing to deliver a thriving, modern library service across Somerset. As with many Authorities, however, we continue to face challenging financial times. Somerset County Council received £90million in 2013/14 from central government to support our services. This has reduced to just over £26million for 2017/18 and is set to reduce to nothing by 2020/21- whilst demand for services has increased, particularly in adult and children social care. We have managed to reduce our library budget by 20% since 2011, whilst keeping all of our libraries open. Going forward, we may need to consider more challenging changes in order to keep the Libraries Service on a sustainable financial footing. The following summary proposal provides three options exploring how we might deliver library services in your community in future. There are another eight area summary proposals available to view, which include library proposals for the remaining areas of Somerset. Please carefully read the following information, consider the two proposed options then complete the questionnaire, basing your answers on the library you visit most often. We stress that no decisions about the future delivery of library services in any community have been taken at this time and the results of this consultation will be taken into account in our decision-making.
