  • Northern Devon in the Domesday Book
    NORTHERN DEVON IN THE DOMESDAY BOOK INTRODUCTION The existence of the Domesday Book has been a source of national pride since the first antiquarians started to write about it perhaps four hundred years ago. However, it was not really studied until the late nineteenth century when the legal historian, F W Maitland, showed how one could begin to understand English society at around the time of the Norman Conquest through a close reading and analysis of the Domesday Book (Maitland 1897, 1987). The Victoria County Histories from the early part of the twentieth century took on the task of county-wide analysis, although the series as a whole ran out of momentum long before many counties, Devon included, had been covered. Systematic analysis of the data within the Domesday Book was undertaken by H C Darby of University College London and Cambridge University, assisted by a research team during the 1950s and 1960s. Darby(1953), in a classic paper on the methodology of historical geography, suggested that two great fixed dates for English rural history were 1086, with Domesday Book, and circa 1840, when there was one of the first more comprehensive censuses and the detailed listings of land-use and land ownership in the Tithe Survey of 1836-1846. The anniversary of Domesday Book in 1986 saw a further flurry of research into what Domesday Book really was, what it meant at the time and how it was produced. It might be a slight over-statement but in the early-1980s there was a clear consensus about Domesday Book and its purpose but since then questions have been raised and although signs of a new shared understanding can be again be seen, it seems unlikely that Domesday Book will ever again be taken as self-evident.

    The Exmoor Society The Exmoor Society, Parish Rooms, Dulverton, Somerset TA22 9DP Spring 2010 Newsletter No. 57 Withypool in the Snow 2 CONTENTS Page 4 Chairman’s Notes 5 News Roundup 10 In Brief – From the Parish Rooms 12 Membership News 14 The Moorland Mousie Trust 16 Celebration Woodland at Wimbleball 17 Exmoor Enterprise 18 News from around the Groups 20 Spring Conference 2010 “Energy Exmoor” 22 Update on St Luke’s Church, Simonsbath 23 Poetry Competition 3 CHAIRMAN’S NOTES Writing in this Newsletter surrounded by deep snow, in a supposedly mild winter, brings home acutely the difference between weather and climate and the importance of searching for the right responses to global warming. The topic of climate change and its likely impact on Exmoor and the measures that can be taken to adjust and help mitigate it, will be increasingly aired in the coming years. Indeed, items in this Newsletter – vision for the uplands; a new national park circular; valuing natural and cultural services from the landscape – show the present thinking of public bodies. The emphasis is on peat restoration and carbon sequestration, improving water quality, reducing flooding downstream, providing energy from natural resources and working towards a low carbon economy. While recognition of the contribution of Exmoor’s wetlands is to be welcomed, it is important that the Society looks carefully at the measures being suggested, and that the solutions are proportionate, cost effective, appropriate to the location and achieve the desired outcomes. The Society’s Spring Conference this year will explore the different sources of renewable energy that can be provided from Exmoor’s landscape – solar, hydro, ground source heat, wind and bio-mass.

  • Rural Alliance
    Report on Housing Needs Surveys RURAL ALLIANCE North Devon – September 2012 Bratton Fleming East Down Kentisbury Arlington Challacombe Goodleigh Marwood Stoke Rivers Loxhore Shirwell Trentishoe RURAL HOUSING PROJECT Exmoor, North Devon & West Somerset The Rural Housing Project has been running since 2002 and is a partnership between Exmoor National Park Authority, North Devon Council, West Somerset Council, English Rural Housing Association, Falcon Rural Housing, Hastoe Housing Association, North Devon Homes, Devon and Cornwall Housing Association and Magna Housing Association. It has been working hard to address the shortage of affordable housing within a predominantly rural area. The area covered by the project displays an extreme disparity between incomes and house prices, which makes it hard for many to gain secure footing within the housing market. The Rural Housing Project is designed to help promote and deliver affordable rural housing strategically across the project area and helps deliver Exmoor National Park housing policies within the Park. This is being achieved by informing people about affordable rural housing, providing help and advice, carrying out research at parish level to assess the affordable housing need and bringing together the community and various partners to help deliver housing where it is needed. One of the tasks for the project is to work with the Parish Council and the local community to assist them in carrying out a housing needs survey, in order to identify whether there is a need for affordable housing for local people in the parish. Colin Savage, Rural Housing Enabler Introduction The “Rural Alliance” is made up of the North Devon parishes of Arlington, Bratton Fleming, Challacombe, East Down, Goodleigh, Kentisbury & Trentishoe, Loxhore, Marwood, Shirwell and Stoke Rivers.

We’re also proud to be environmentally friendly, with a number of sustainability and other awards to our name, such as the Engineering Heritage award from the Institution of Mechanical Engineers. Tourists flock to our unique attraction to enjoy the spectacular views across Lynmouth Bay and the Bristol Channel offered by the 862 feet of track, which rises 500 feet.

  • HIW/17/87 North Devon Highways and Traffic Orders Committee 10
    HIW/17/87 North Devon Highways and Traffic Orders Committee 10 November 2017 Annual Local Waiting Restriction Programme Report of the Chief Officer for Highways, Infrastructure Development and Waste Please note that the following recommendations are subject to consideration and determination by the Committee before taking effect. Recommendation: It is recommended that: (a) work on the annual waiting restrictions programme process for 2017/2018 is noted; (b) the recommendations contained in Appendix III to this report are agreed and the proposals implemented where relevant. (c) the proposals detailed in Appendix I which attracted no objections are implemented as advertised. 1. Background The County Council regularly receives requests for waiting restrictions to be introduced or amended. These can be difficult to deliver due to resource and funding pressures which can then have a negative impact on the County Council’s relationship with local communities. Recognising this difficulty, a managed process has been developed to deliver an Annual Local Waiting Restriction Programme for each HATOC area for the funding and delivery of waiting restriction schemes. The 2016/17 programme delivered proposals at over 250 sites across Devon. These were mainly amendments to yellow lines and limited waiting, thought to be non-controversial, which had been requested by communities or by local Highway Officers Building on the success of this process, the 2017/18 programme is currently progressing in the region of 500 proposals along with a small programme of minor aids to movement improvements such as drop crossings, footway improvements and bollards. 2. Proposal Cabinet has allocated an amount of £100,000 countywide from the On-Street Parking Account to this process in 2017/18 which equates to an amount of £12,500 to each HATOC area.
