  • Rights of Way Improvement Plan 2
    Rights of Way Improvement Plan 2 WWW.SOMERSET.GOV.UK WELCOME TO THE 2ND SOMERSET RIGHTS OF WAY IMPROVEMENT PLAN Public Rights of Way are more than a valuable recreational resource - they are also an important asset in terms of the rural economy, tourism, sustainable transport, social inclusion and health and well being. The public rights of way network is key to enabling residents and visitors alike to access services and enjoy the beauty of Somerset’s diverse natural and built environment. Over the next few years, the focus is going to be chiefly on performing our statutory duties. However, where resources allow we will strive to implement the key priority areas of this 2nd Improvement Plan and make Somerset a place and a destination for enjoyable walking, riding and cycling.

  • Somerset Geology-A Good Rock Guide
    SOMERSET GEOLOGY-A GOOD ROCK GUIDE Hugh Prudden The great unconformity figured by De la Beche WELCOME TO SOMERSET Welcome to green fields, wild flower meadows, farm cider, Cheddar cheese, picturesque villages, wild moorland, peat moors, a spectacular coastline, quiet country lanes…… To which we can add a wealth of geological features. The gorge and caves at Cheddar are well-known. Further east near Frome there are Silurian volcanics, Carboniferous Limestone outcrops, Variscan thrust tectonics, Permo-Triassic conglomerates, sediment-filled fissures, a classic unconformity, Jurassic clays and limestones, Cretaceous Greensand and Chalk topped with Tertiary remnants including sarsen stones-a veritable geological park! Elsewhere in Mendip are reminders of coal and lead mining both in the field and museums. Today the Mendips are a major source of aggregates. The Mesozoic formations curve in an arc through southwest and southeast Somerset creating vales and escarpments that define the landscape and clearly have influenced the patterns of soils, land use and settlement as at Porlock. The church building stones mark the outcrops. Wilder country can be found in the Quantocks, Brendon Hills and Exmoor which are underlain by rocks of Devonian age and within which lie sunken blocks (half-grabens) containing Permo-Triassic sediments. The coastline contains exposures of Devonian sediments and tectonics west of Minehead adjoining the classic exposures of Mesozoic sediments and structural features which extend eastward to the Parrett estuary. The predominance of wave energy from the west and the large tidal range of the Bristol Channel has resulted in rapid cliff erosion and longshore drift to the east where there is a full suite of accretionary landforms: sandy beaches, storm ridges, salt marsh, and sand dunes popular with summer visitors.

  • Newsletter 2 Summer 2003
    SOMERSET HERALDRY SOCIETY Newsletter Summer 2003 CHAIRMAN’S MESSAGE This newsletter comes to you after about six months of Somerset Heraldry Society activity. We have had some very good talks and outings, some of which have been splendidly supported by the City of Bath Heraldry Soci- ety. Those who have attended have been very pleased with the talks and visits. Our membership numbers are encouraging, particularly for a new society, but we do need you to turn up and ‘enjoy’ with us. The Autumn programme is set out elsewhere in the newsletter and as you can see it is both full and varied. We have tried to ensure that members from all parts of the County can get to the meetings (at least some of the time!) I would also like to thank those members who have volunteered to serve on the Committee. We are few at present, so if anyone feels that they can join us, we will be pleased to welcome you. Ron Gadd Contact address: THE SOMERSET HERALDRY SOCIETY The Grammar House, The Hill, Langport, Somerset TA10 9PU Tel & Fax 01458 250868 email [email protected] 1 REPORT ON ACTIVITIES In the last six months we have had a number of meetings. In January An- thony Wood showed us a selection of his work and talked about his work under the title “Life of an Heraldic Art- ist”. This was greatly enjoyed and en- couraged 12 people to become founder members of the Society. In February, we held our first formal meeting and elected our committee before enjoying a different take on heraldry, when our new Chairman, Ron Gadd, gave us an idio- syncratic view of the subject.
