Michael Read Clerk to the Council, Ashprington and Tuckenhay. 1 Local Government Boundary Commission for England Consultation Portal Page 1 of 2 South Hams District Personal Details: Name: Marilyn Small E-mail: Postcode: Bickleigh Parish Council Organisation Name: (Plymouth) Contains Ordnance Survey data © Crown copyright and database rights 2013. Map Features: Comment text: Bickleigh Parish Council is concerned that the proposal does not seem to take account of any future development, ie there is no recognition that there is a requirement for 500 houses in the South Hams area. There is an assumption that the housing will be within the Woolwell area and if housing does come about, then that development would be in Bickleigh and Cornwood Ward which would significantly aler the equality principle. The Parish Council accept that there are no firm applications for the development to take place in this area but discussions are on-going and it is understood that a planning application might be coming forward before the end of the year.

    South Brent Parish Council Newsletter Autumn 2019 Issue 62 Any organisation in South Brent may use the Parish Crest Parish Clerk retires South Brent Parish Clerk Mrs. Julia Willoughby, has retired after 23 years’ service with the Parish Council. Julia was thanked at her last full council meeting in July. The Council also hosted a Thankyou party at which members and former colleagues presented her with a handsome glass vase engraved with the parish crest and the dates of her service. Parish Council Chairman, Cllr. Cathie Pannell, paid tribute to Julia's hard work and dedication over so many years. "She has been a real asset for the council and has helped our parish enormously with her skills and knowledge. She will be greatly missed." The Parish Council Mrs Julia Willoughby, Cllr. Cathie has now welcomed our new Clerk, Mrs Katharine Griffiths. Pannell (Chairman) & Mrs Katharine Griffiths South Brent Carnival 2019 After a very successful carnival week, the club has attended a further 7 carnivals so far, since the beginning of the carnival season on the 29th June. Our annual summer carnival was a great week with many successful events, and was enjoyed by many in the village. The weather was also on our side for the week, with many great days of weather. Each day throughout the week there was a different event, leading up to Saturday's grand carnival procession. The procession was the first Devon carnival of the season, and therefore was the first reveal of our 2019 float, entitled “sunshine after the rain.'' Many other carnival clubs and villagers took part in the procession, which made it a very good evening! The club has since been out all over south Devon each Saturday, taking part in many other carnivals, including Newton Abbot, Chudleigh, Kingsbridge, Paignton, Teignmouth, Bovey Tracey and Dawlish.

While you are unlikely to see them (they are largely nocturnal and hibernate from November until May), it is worth looking for the nibbled carcasses of hazelnuts that they leave behind.

    DARTMOOR BIRD REPORT 2018 Peter Reay & Fiona Freshney [email protected] Scorhill Mire (Gullaven Brook), the best Snipe site during the 2018/19 survey (Fiona Freshney) CONTENTS INTRODUCTION SOME NOTABLE RECORDS WEATHER REFERENCES LOOKING BACK TO THE 2008 REPORT SPECIES ACCOUNTS A SUMMARY OF CURRENT DARTMOOR BIRD RESEARCH 1 INTRODUCTION This report, like those for 2015 and 2017, replaces the Dartmoor Bird Report, published from 1996 to 2014 by the Dartmoor Study Group. It relates to the same geographical area covered both by its predecessors and The Birds of Dartmoor (Smaldon 2005). This comprises the area within the Dartmoor National Park Authority (DNPA) boundary, with the addition of the china clay districts around Lee Moor, Shaugh Moor and Crownhill Down, left out of the National Park designation for political and business reasons. The bulk of the report comprises species accounts, but it also includes brief reviews of the weather in 2018, the Dartmoor Bird Report of 2008 and current Dartmoor bird projects and surveys. A more detailed description of the latter will appear in a Review of Dartmoor Bird Research 2018-19 to be published in Devon Birds in 2020 (Freshney & Reay, in prep.). The species accounts aim to provide a summary of birds recorded on Dartmoor in 2018. It is hoped that the production of the report will encourage more active submission of records and so help create a more complete picture of Dartmoor’s birds in 2019 and beyond. The records used are mostly those submitted to Devon Birds for 2018 (including those from the national BTO surveys) and assigned to the Dartmoor parent site.

KEY ON SPEECH DAY STOVER SCHOOL MAGAZINE, 1963 STOVER SCHOOL, NEWTON ABBOT. November, 1963. MY DEAR GIRLS AND OLD GIRLS, I hope that this opening will not seem too familiar ; it is certainly sincere, for though I have not had long to get to know the present girls and so far have met only a few Old Girls, the strong family spirit of Stover has already made me feel a real affection for this happy, lively and friendly school. The keynote of this, my first letter, must be one of gratitude : to the Governors for entrusting me with the guidance of this School at an exciting period of its history : to Miss Dence for so generously giving much of her time to tell me of the School's spirit and traditions, which she has created and developed over the years : to parents, staff and girls for their kindly welcome, and friendly attitude ; and Old Girls especially will realise how much I owe to Miss Lidgate's long experience and her constant readiness to try new experiments, and to Miss Gaukrodger for her encyclopaedic knowledge of all the School's activities.
