A fine and sympathetic conversion of a former parish church Features • Entrance Porch with flagstone floor • Reception Room with vaulted ceiling and stained glass window • Drawing Room with wood burning stove, vaulted ceiling and stained glass window • Handmade solid wood Kitchen with integrated appliances and range • Utility Room • Family Bathroom • 4 double Bedrooms (one with ensuite Shower Room) • Galleried Landing • Further Bathroom with roll top bath • Large Garage • Parking for several cars • Secluded gardens of approximately ½ acre The Property Old St James served as the Chedington parish church until 1980 when the building was deconsecrated and subsequently converted into a residential dwelling. Built in 1840 this fine church is thought to be situated adjacent to the site of a much older place of worship, long since demolished. The building was designed by the Taunton architect, Richard Carver and originally consisted of just a nave and chancel, with the bapistry organ chamber and south porch being added later. Built of hamstone, this impressive building retains much of its original character, with splendid stone mullioned stained glass windows, stone carving and arches with carved wood screen to the south vestry. The property has undergone significant refurbishment to a very high standard in recent years with additions including solid oak floors, staircase and joinery, granite worktops in the newly fitted kitchen and utility room, new bathroom suites and redecoration throughout. Outside The garden of Old St. James extends to approximately half an acre and surrounds the property. The garden is level and particularly private, having mature trees and hedging on all the boundaries. To the north is a large area of lawn and a gravel parking area with space for several cars and a single garage. On the eastern flank there is a raised area of lawn with mature shrubs and plants with space for a kitchen garden. To the south a gravel path leads to the house with pedestrian gate to the lane and village. Location Chedington is a pretty village on high ground where Dorset tumbles into Somerset through Winyards Gap. An estate village, Chedington grew up around Chedington Court, a large house, whose grounds adjoin Old St James.

    Section 34: Western Dorset Functional Area ___________________________________________________________ 34. Western Dorset Functional Area Introduction 34.1.1. The Western Dorset Functional Area is centred on the historic market town of Bridport and includes the small market town of Beaminster and the coastal resort of Lyme Regis. Function and issues 34.1.2. The function of each of the main settlements is described in Figure 34.1 below, which also highlights some of the key issues in each of the main settlements. The three towns generally have a good range of services and some job opportunities, but there is a range of issues including: a low wage economy; an ageing population; a lack of affordable housing; and, in the case of Lyme Regis and in some villages, a high level of second home ownership. Figure 34.1: The function and issues associated with the main settlements in the Western Dorset Functional Area Beaminster - The small market town of Beaminster lies about 6 miles north of Bridport and has a population of about 2,900. The town has a range of local shops and facilities in the town centre and a secondary school. Although the Clipper Tea Company and other firms offer some employment opportunities, there is a net outflow of workers. The town has an elderly population and has experienced a decline in population in recent years. Bridport - Bridport is a historic market town, which together with West Bay has a population of over 13,900. It is the main service centre in the western part of Dorset and a centre for the arts, culture and tourism.

  • Allen, Vandelow Hobman – Entrepreneur
    Vandelow Hobman Allen - Entrepreneur Graham Davies April 2020 Van Allen (1893-1953) was well-known in Lyme Regis from the 1920s to 1950s. He was a business man with a wide range of interests and skills. Some in the town thought of him as ‘a bit of a spiv’, but talking to his family, you get the impression of a good hearted man who did many of his deals on the shake of hands. Van Allen was born in Stratton, Dorset, where his father Samuel Allen was a coal merchant. In the late 1890s Samuel moved his family, wife Sarah and their seven children, to Beaminster in Dorset to become inn keeper at the Sun Inn, East Street. Samuel Allen died in 1901. Sarah remarried the following year to a Walter Russell and the family continued to live at the Sun Inn. Van Allen was a solicitor’s clerk by the age of seventeen. He married Equilla Marian Hansford in December 1915 at Beaminster Parish Church, and served in WWI as a corporal in the Royal Army Medical Corps. At the end of WWI, Van Allen, with his wife and young son James, came to live in Lyme Regis at No.34a, Coombe Street. Their daughter Marjorie was born in 1920. It was from here, during the next seven years, that he embarked on a diverse entrepreneurial career. Shop at 34 Coombe Street Mr Van H Allen, Lyme Regis, the well-known card manipulator and entertainer, Is prepared to attend private parties, diners etc. Any distance – reasonable terms.
