Archaeological Investigation at Hartland, Devon
ARCHAEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATION AT HARTLAND, DEVON EXPLORING ARCHAEOLOGY PROJECT MARCH 2009 A Report for The Hartland Society ARCHAEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATION AT HARTAND, DEVON By Penny Cunningham PhD With contributions by Stephen Hobbs, David Miller, Tim Robinson, Catherine Griffiths and Henrietta Quinnell March 2009 2 Acknowledgements Thanks are due to Sir Hugh and Lady Stucley for giving permission to conduct geophysical surveys and an evaluation excavation and to the tenant farmers Mr and Mrs Davey. The Warren is also under the Countryside Stewardship Scheme and additional thanks go to Simon Tame of Natural England for giving permission to conduct the evaluation excavation. A big thanks is also due to Stephen and Liz Hobbs for all the help in organising the geophysical surveys, excavation and volunteers. Without their support and enthusiasm none of this work would have been possible. The geophysical survey was undertaken by a number of people and thanks are due to Sean Hawken and David Miller. Thanks are also due to additional geophysical surveying undertaken by David Miller and Tim Robinson (Hartland Abbey). The excavation benefited from the hard work of a large number of people, in particular, Sam Walls, Wendy Howard, and Becky Miller who all worked tirelessly to ensure a high standard was maintained throughout the excavation. Alison Mills from Barnstaple Museum gave advice and support during the excavation and also provided help with the school activities. Thanks also go to Bill Horner and Francis Griffiths for all their sound advice during the planning stage. Jonathan Bray, Simon Hogg, Peter Jones, Dean McMullen, Harry West-Taylor and Fiona Reading helped with the post excavation work, especially with the illustrations. -
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. -

RIVER EXE CATCHMENT ACTION PLAN NRA National Rivers Authority South West Region uo/vV. K ( CONTENTS MAP OF NRA SW REGION SHOWING TARGET CATCHMENT 1. INTRODUCTION PAGE 1 ROUTINE SERVICES PAGE 1 - 2 3. CHALLENGES & PROPOSED ACTIONS PAGE 3 APPENDIX 1 - CATCHMENT MAPS APPENDIX 2 - NRA DUTIES, POWERS AND TARGETS ENVIRONMENT AGENCY 046304 National Rivers Authority South West Region 1. INTRODUCTION CATCHMENT ACTION PLANS are designed to be a simple, practical means of directing resources to achieve environmental improvements on a priority basis, between and within catchments* They set out the essential routine tasks, and a five year programme of specific actions for each catchment to meet regional and national targets. Changes may occur where unplanned work such as an extreme drought requires priority. The NRA has inherited a legacy of environmental challenges arising from the use and abuse of our natural resources. Although significant progress has already been made it will be many years before all the work needed can be assessed, funded and carried out. To achieve the environmental objectives will require not just the clear, vigorous direction of the NRA towards priority work but the help and support of the whole community. The NRA has consulted with the Regional Advisory Board and Advisory Committees and the local interests about the draft action plans and the format is the outcome of those discussions. Progress to achieve the Action Plan objectives will normally be reviewed on an annual basis but more frequently where severe problems have been identified. 2. ROUTINE SERVICES Despite the fact that the NRA is largely a reactive, regulatory body it is possible to plan for much of the environmental protection work even the fact that unpredictable events will occur! Much of the routine workload such as monitoring, enforcement of statutes and dealing with pollution and flooding incidents needs to have clear priority to ensure that it is dealt with to satisfactory standards throughout the region.
