  • THE FRIENDS of EXETER CATHEDRAL ANNUAL REPORT 2020 Pages 27–31 ‘1917 and ALL THAT’ by Jonathan Walker
    THE FRIENDS OF EXETER CATHEDRAL ANNUAL REPORT 2020 Pages 27–31 ‘1917 AND ALL THAT’ by Jonathan Walker ‘1917 AND ALL THAT’ It is not often that Hollywood has a link with Exeter Cathedral, but Sir Sam Mendes’ new blockbuster film ‘1917’ has created one. The film, which features cameo roles by Colin Firth and Dominic Cumberbatch, is set on the Western Front during The Great War and tells the story of two messengers who have to cross a surreal landscape, recently abandoned by the Germans, in order to deliver a message to a British battalion. That message aims to halt the unit’s intended suicidal attack, for the Germans have laid a trap. To say more, would be a ‘spoiler’ but the unit portrayed in the film is the 2nd Battalion The Devonshire Regiment – and Exeter Cathedral remains the spiritual home of the ‘Devons’, encompassing their regimental chapel of St Edmund. Before looking at the close association between the Devons and the Cathedral, what was the story of the county regiment’s contribution to The Great War? As with most regiments before the outbreak of the conflict, the Devons maintained two regular battalions of professional soldiers, a reserve battalion and three battalions of territorial (part-time) soldiers. There was a gulf between these units, with Lord Kitchener complaining, somewhat unjustly, that the Territorials were a collection of ‘middle-aged professional men who were allowed to put on uniform and play at soldiers’. Professional jealousy apart, it was clear that the British Army would have to be rapidly expanded, as the first weeks of the war decimated the ranks of the ‘old contemptibles’.

  • History of the Riverside Hall Bampton the Riverside Hall in Bridge Terrace Bampton EX16 9LT Is One of Three “Village Halls”
    History of the Riverside Hall Bampton The Riverside Hall in Bridge Terrace Bampton EX16 9LT is one of three “village halls” in Bampton (the others being the Community Hall and the LARC). Its early history is very much tied up with the presence of the Army in various guises. It was originally built in 1903 as a drill hall for volunteers in the days when England had only a very small Regular Army and most of the militia was provided by volunteers organised by local worthies. A volunteer regiment, the 11th of Foot, existed in Bampton in the 17th century. It was raised in the counties of Devon, Somerset, and Dorset to resist Monmouth’s rebellion. Being Protestants, they fought with the Prince of Orange at the Battle of the Boyne in 1688. The 11th of Foot (Fig 1 shows a soldier of the 11th Foot in 1742, the red coat displaying the regiment's green facings). It became the North Devon Regiment in 1782. The documents of the Duke of Somerset mention a Muster of Troops, Mr. Henry Ashford’s Company, at Bampton in April 1613. By the th st Fig 1: Soldier of the 18 century this had become the 1 Devon Militia. In the 1720’s there were 428 11th Foot men in the Hundred of Bampton liable for service in the militia. The North Devon Yeomanry was formed in 1794. The Yeomanry wore clothes made of cloth, whilst the militia men wore rough serge. An Order in the 1760’s required 500 private men to be raised in the Northern regiment, 39 of whom were to come from the Bampton Hundred.
