Flooding is likely to be caused by prolonged heavy rainfall on a saturated catchment, or intense rainfall over a short period as occasionally experienced during summer thunderstorm activity. Sidmouth is also at risk from the sea during a combination of high spring tides, low pressure and on-shore gales causing large wave action. The town ARE YOU ARE YOU PREPARED FOR A FLOOD?

F l n n r i i n p 0845 9881188 ENVIRONMENT AGENCY Front cover: Mill Street, Sidmouth, 22 October 1960 Why is a Flood Plan required ? There are approximately 250 properties at risk of flooding in Sidmouth. Flood defences reduce the likelihood of properties flooding but they do not completely stop it. For the rare occasions when an extreme storm overwhelms the top of a defence, it is important that properties previously protected, are given a flood warning and that arrangements are in place so that Emergency Services and Local Authorities can provide effective assistance. People living in areas protected by flood defences should be just as prepared, as those who are at risk of flooding on a more frequent basis. Householders also have an important part to play in the overall plan.

  • Annex 1 Future High Streets Fund – Analysis
    Annex 1 Future High Streets Fund – Analysis The purpose of this document is to summarise the application process and key criteria associated with the Future High Streets (FHS) Fund, and present the potential town candidates which could form the basis of East Devon’s single Expression of Interest bid. This document has been compiled by officers across the council including planners, surveyors and economic development officers. Background The deadline for the submission of Expressions of Interest is 22 Mar 2019. There is likely to be a later opportunity to bid for the Fund as well. Initial awareness of the Fund emerged in autumn 2018 with fuller detail in December 2018 and then supplementary guidance more recently. As government has released more detailed information we have also sought clarification on what is and isn’t eligible or likely to be favoured. If we were to submit a bid for one of our established towns it should be recognised from the individual and collective analysis below that our high streets are not failing nor would those communities necessarily recognise or accept transformational intervention to solve a problem that isn’t significant i.e. replacing retail with alternative high street functions. However, it is also clear that other authorities not so different from nor far away from ours are preparing bids for some of their town centres. Government has said that it would like to see high streets across the regions benefit so it may well be willing to consider and work with bids of varying levels of under-performance to ensure a geographic spread.

  • The 'Red Coast'
    The ‘Red Coast’ - Exmouth to Sidmouth Place To Walk Location & Access: The route is described from Exmouth to Sidmouth, but could be reversed. Exmouth can be reached via A376 road from Exeter. There is also a regular train link from Exeter Central Station and a regular bus service (number 57) from Exeter. There is plenty of parking in the town of Exmouth, and this walk begins at the car park close to the sea front to east of town - past the Maer recreation ground, and by the lifeboat station at GR SY0121 8000. At the completion of the walk, a return bus (number 57) is available from Sidmouth. Hern Point Rock, Ladram Bay Key Geography: Stunning section of the South West Coast Path - part of the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site. SSSI, Triassic geology, spits, steep cliffs, coastal erosion, landslips, sea stacks. Description: This walk of 12.5 miles (20 km) covers a stunning section of the 95 miles Jurassic Coast, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its geology includes Permian and Triassic rocks overlain in part by rocks from the Cretaceous Period. It is informally known as the ‘Red Coast’ due to the colour of the cliffs. From the car park, there is a brief moment to admire the sandy beach of Exmouth before making for the cliffs at eastern end of esplanade. Here, the cliffs of Rodney Point give the first decent view of the red geology. From here, the path climbs to Orcombe Point, where it is possible to stop and take a look at the geoneedle, a monument that marks the start of the Jurassic Coast.

  • Case Study Pennington Point V2
    Working for the South West Regional Coastal Monitoring Coastal processes Programme, the Plymouth Coastal Observatory measures and schools case study: records detailed information on more than 2,000km of England’s coastline from Sidmouth in Devon the Severn Estuary to Portland Bill Explanatory notes The Plymouth Coastal Observatory, the data-gathering arm of the South West Regional Coastal Monitoring Programme, first commissioned aerial photography of the area around Sidmouth in East Devon in 2007, just a year after the SWRCMP was launched. Such photography is just one way the scientists at the PCO track the changes for the programme, which works on behalf of the area’s maritime local authorities and coastal groups, as well as the Environment Agency and Defra, and is managed by Teignbridge District Council. The scientists are also regularly seen on the beaches of the region, from Beachley Point in Gloucestershire to Portland Bay in West Dorset, physically charting the changes taking place due to erosion and deposition, natural coastal processes caused by the weather and tides. The coast is divided into segments, so accurate measurements can be made from the same points time and again. This produces graphs called beach profiles, which again can then be used to show the changes taking place. Comparing profiles taken at Pennington Point at Sidmouth shows that the levels of the beach there have fallen – in some places by more than a metre – since 2007. The data also shows what happened after a large rock fall in 2012. Photographs taken along the profiles help us to see the differences for ourselves.

  • The Evolution of the Rivers of East Devon and South Somerset, UK
    R.W. Gallois THE EVOLUTION OF THE RIVERS OF EAST DEVON AND SOUTH SOMERSET , UK R.W.G ALLOIS Gallois, R.W. 2006. The evolution of the rivers of east Devon and south Somerset, UK. Geoscience in south-west England, 11 , 205-213. With the exception of the River Tone, which appears to have been separated at an early stage from its neighbours to the south by a major fault, the rivers of south Somerset and east Devon were initiated on a southward dipping Tertiary planation surface. The evolutionary histories of the present-day catchments of the rivers Exe and Otter are complex and inter-related. Those of the adjacent Axe and Teign appear to be less complex and may have evolved relatively independently from the Exe-Otter system. The differences in the histories of the catchments are most clearly demonstrated by their terrace systems. The Exe-Otter catchment has 10 or more terrace levels at heights of up to 140 m above the modern floodplain. In contrast, the Axe, Teign and Tone catchments contain only one or two terrace levels all of which are less than 20 m above the present-day valley floor. The explanation suggested here for the difference involves a sequence of river captures that changed the forerunner of the present-day Otter from a major river capable of producing a 3-km wide gravelly braidplain into a minor stream. 92 Stoke Valley Road, Exeter, EX4 5ER, U.K. (E-mail: [email protected]). INTRODUCTION The middle and lower reaches of the River Exe and the There are too few age data to determine the period of time adjacent catchments of the Axe, Otter, Teign and Tone drain an during which the terrace sequences in south-west England area with a complex topographical relief that ranges from over evolved, but comparison with the denudation chronology of 300 m above Ordnance Datum (O.D.) in the Blackdown Hills southern England as a whole suggests that all the terraces to a few metres above O.D.

Thanks to all involved, especially Mo Bowman for her inspirational talk on ‘Picturing the Otter Valley’ and Gill Speare and her team for the refreshments. We were able to clarify why the OVA contribution at a meeting about the Longboat application held on 24 March had not been reported. It was because the April newsletter went to press several days earlier. The potential role of volunteer working parties was raised, especially relevant in view of changes to footpath management by Devon County Council. There are complex issues involved including the inevitable health and safety ones and the attitude of local landowners. As a first step we are inviting volunteers to register via the website (see page 4) Please don’t wait for an AGM to ask a question or make a suggestion, parish representatives will be happy to hear from you.
