West Seaton and Seaton Hole Association Electoral review for East Devon District: Inclusion of the south-western part of Seaton in the Beer and Branscombe ward Statement 20 February 2017 Our Association considered this proposal at its Annual General Meeting on 16 February 2017 and overwhelmingly rejected it. While we appreciate your aim of equalising electorates in the different wards, we feel that in this case other considerations outweigh your particular proposal. Your report notes that in order to expand the electorate of Beer and Branscombe ward, you considered the inclusion of either Salcombe Regis from Sidmouth parish or the parish of Southleigh’, but these were rejected because they ‘would not meet our statutory criteria of community identity.’ Instead you propose to include an area of Seaton ‘around Beer Road’ in the ward. Bizarrely, it doesn’t seem to have occurred to the Commission that West Seaton citizens might have feelings about having their community identity taken away! Our Association represents the western side of Seaton and most of our 70 members live in the area which it is proposed to transfer to Beer and Branscombe (there is no other residents’ association in this particular area). We feel strongly that we belong to Seaton and we wish to be represented together with neighbouring areas of the town which, on your proposal, would remain in Seaton ward. We believe that your proposal for our area will do more damage to community identity than either the Salcombe or Southleigh alternatives. In their cases, the whole of the particular communities, and in the case of Southleigh the whole parish, would become part of Beer and Branscombe. In our case, the proposal would divide one side of Bunts Lane, Castle Hill and Marlpit Lane from the other, and would generally divide the local community in the west of Seaton and the parish of Seaton. We also find the proposal for a separate Town Council ward electing a single councillor, while the rest of the town would be another ward electing eleven councillors, very anachronistic. We note that our inclusion in Beer and Branscombe ward would raise that ward’s electorate by 5 per cent above the average, while leaving us in Seaton would probably leave Seaton above by little more. In the circumstances, we believe this proposal should be withdrawn, as any marginal benefit in balancing electoral numbers is heavily outweighed by the disruption to community identity. .

Colyton Neighbourhood Plan Local Evidence Report Aug 2017
Colyton Parish Neighbourhood Plan Local Evidence Report August 2017 Introduction Neighbourhood planning policy and proposals need to be based on a proper understanding of the place they relate to, if it they are to be relevant, realistic and to address local issues effectively. It is important that our Neighbourhood Plan is based on robust information and analysis of the local area; this is called the evidence base. Unless policy is based on firm evidence and proper community engagement, then it is more likely to reflect the assumptions and prejudices of those writing it than to reflect the needs of the wider area and community. This report endeavours to bring together recent information and informed opinion about the Parish that may have some relevance in preparing a Colyton Neighbourhood Plan. Together with its companion document, which sets out the strategic framework in which we must prepare the Neighbourhood Plan, it provides us with a shared base of knowledge and understanding about Colyton parish on which we can build.

The Three in One
The Three in One December 2020 &January 2021 £1 Salcombe ~ Malborough ~ South Huish 1 CHRISTMAS FLOWERS Despite not knowing if there will be any services in the church over the festive season, WE ARE going to decorate the church with flowers! Even if only a few services take place, there are still people who come in the church on most days for some silent prayer or to light a candle, so we want to make it look Christmassy. Hopefully, some of you on the flower rota will be prepared to arrange a window display, a pedestal or the rails next to the choir stalls. If any of you have any artificial flowers that would be suitable in the church decorations, they would be most welcome. We will, of course, be ordering fresh flowers, but a few artificial ones would be useful. Daniel would like the church to be decorated a bit earlier this year and so we are thinking that Friday, 11 December and Saturday, 12 December would be a good time to start. Although most of the places are well distanced, the flower vestry could become a bit overcrowded, so that is why we are suggesting two days for the arrangements. I have also been asked whether the crosses that go on the pillars could be made up, so if there are any of you who would like to decorate one, please let me know as well as letting me know if you would like to help with the other arrangements. (Some of you have already told me that you would like to help).

Salcombe Conservation Area Appraisal Adopted 2010
Salcombe Conservation Area Appraisal Conservation Areas are usually located in the older parts of our towns and villages. They are places whose surviving historic, architectural and locally distinctive features make them special. Conservation area designation highlights the need to preserve and reinforce these qualities. The policies followed by the District Council when assessing proposals affecting conservation areas are set out in the South Hams Local Plan and Local Development Framework, while the Supplementary Planning Document ‘New Work in Conservation Areas’ explains how to achieve compliance with them. This is essential because the Council has a statutory duty to approve proposals only if they “preserve or enhance the character or appearance” of the conservation area. The purpose of this appraisal is to set out what makes the Salcombe Conservation Area special, what needs to be conserved and what needs to be improved. Adopted February 2010 Salcombe Introduction Salcombe is the southernmost town in the county of The Conservation Area was first designated in 1973 (later Devon, situated at the very end of the A381 spinal road, amended:1985 and 1998) and comprises the waterfront on the edge of the Salcombe/Kingsbridge Estuary. town’s historic core and close perimeter roads containing Otherwise, the only access to this isolated town is a later Victorian villas. A large number of properties within network of narrow lanes, the long established ferry this area are second homes and the local population of just services to Kingsbridge and E.

IT was predicted of the Great Philanthropist, "He shall tum the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of children to their fathers." The writer seeks to contribute something toward the development of such mutual afiection between the members of the Pope Family. He has found his own heart tenderly drawn toward all whose names he has registered and whose biographies he has at tempted to write. The dead are his own, whose graves he has sought to strew with the tributes of love ; the living are his own, every one of whose careers he now watches with strong interest. He has given a large part of bis recreation hours and vacation time for eight years to the gathering of materials for the work ; written hundreds of letters ; examined a great many deeds and wills, town journals, church registers, and family records ; visited numerous persons and places, and pored over a large number of histories of towns and families ; and has gathered here the items and entries thus discovered.
