  • Flooding Advice
    BRENDON AND COUNTISBURY PARISH COUNCIL – FLOOD PLANNING INTRODUCTION The Parish Council is reviewing preparations for a severe flooding incident. As an initial step, based on information provided by the Environment Agency (EA), the following basic advice should assist residents to assess the risk to their own properties and take sensible flood precautions in advance of any incident. For more detailed information see the full EA’s advice booklet at https://www.devon.gov.uk/floodriskmanagement/. Further work is being undertaken with the public bodies to improve local emergency readiness. If you have any queries, wish to learn more, or could assist locally in case of an incident please contact Mr Mike Sinden, Clerk to the Parish Council, 01598 741323. PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING AND TAKE THE NECESSARY ACTION TO PROTECT YOURSELF AND YOUR FAMILY, GUESTS, AND YOUR OWN PROPERTY. ENVIRONMENT AGENCY 24-HOUR INCIDENT HOTLINE 0800 807060. RISK ASSESSMENT Brendon and Countisbury parishes cover a large area with a number of properties lying in the flood plain of the East Lyn and its tributaries. However the housing stock is widely dispersed and a number of streams and drains have the potential to cause localised difficulties in some circumstances – sometimes in unlikely places. Unusually disruptive and localised weather events seem to be becoming more common and sensible precautions should be taken by householders. Flooding events can range from minor water damage to a few properties to a large scale incident involving a serious threat to life. The Parish Council’s first responsibility is to help residents prepare for this range of possibilities.

  • Croyde Bay, North Devon
    CROYDE BAY, NORTH DEVON. Grid Ref: SS 43 49 A BEACH PROFILE UNDERTAKEN FOR COASTWISE NORTH DEVON Paul and Ro Madgett 2008 SUMMARY Situated between Saunton Sands and Woolacombe/Putsborough Sands. West-facing sandy beach, backed by dunes and with the rocky headlands of Downend and Baggy Point to the South and North respectively. The rocky shore is excellent for wildlife and includes features such as Sabellaria (fan- worm) reefs, sea hares and sea anemones (including some rare species). Cowrie shells can be found in sandy gullies with careful hunting. One of the best beaches in the UK for experienced surfers, but occasional rip currents - not ideal for learners. Lifeguards present during main season. Good parking and toilets. Seasonal refreshments by main beach entrance and year- round in village. Croyde Bay and Baggy Point, from top of Croyde Burrows DETAIL OF LOCATION AND FACILITIES Croyde Bay, in the parish of Georgeham, is a ½ mile wide west-facing sandy beach sandwiched between the rocky headlands of Downend to the south and Baggy Point to the north. Above these rocky shore platforms, soft rock cliffs rise away from the beach. At the back of the beach, to the east, are sizeable sand dunes (Croyde Burrows) which were stabilised by marram grass some years ago, and through which various footpaths run. The South West Long Distance Path crosses the beach at the base of the dunes. The entire area of Croyde Sands (down to LWM), the dunes, and rocky foreshore to south and north (as far as the parish boundary on Downend, and “Polly’s Gully” along Baggy Point) is in private ownership – at the time of writing (October 2008) understood to be Parkdean Estates, the owners also of the Ruda Caravan Park, the time-share apartments to the north of the beach, plus the chalets and the seasonal camping fields behind the dunes.
