  • Rattery Parish Council and Rattery Parish Plan Steering Group (Corrected March 2018)
    The Joint Local Plan Team, Floor 2, Ballard House, West Hoe Road, Plymouth, PL1 3BJ PLYMOUTH AND SOUTH WEST DEVON JOINT LOCAL PLAN REGULATION 19 CONSULTATION Joint representations from Rattery Parish Council and Rattery Parish Plan Steering Group (Corrected March 2018) Nick Ferguson Chairman, Rattery Parish Plan Steering Group Address: The Secretary, Rattery Parish Plan, Village Hall, Rattery TQ10 9LD Telephone: 01364 642511 Email: [email protected] Richard Haigh Vice Chairman, Rattery Parish Council Address: The Clerk, Rattery Parish Council, 34 Balland Park, Ashburton, Devon, TQ13 7BT Telephone: 01364 654607 Email: [email protected] Summary of Key Points The evidence base used in respect to Rattery is unsound and leads to a disproportionately high, unjustified and unsustainable indicative level of housing being allocated to the village. Contrary to assertions in the JLP, SHLAA data is not taken into account in calculating the indicative level of housing for Sustainable Villages. The JLP’s treatment of housing completions and commitments in the first two years of the plan period is both inconsistent and confusing and therefore compromises the validity of this consultation. The strategy of allocating indicative levels of housing to the Sustainable Villages is flawed in both concept and application and will fail to deliver the housing targets set by the JLP. 1 1. The figures for housing supply in Sustainable Villages are, in at least one case, unsound. Inaccuracies in their calculation should be removed and the presentation of the figures in the JLP corrected. a. The calculation of the potential supply from Rattery in the Housing Topic Paper (Provision and Supply) March 2017 is inaccurate.

  • Rattery Lodge Region: South Devon Sleeps: 8
    Rattery Lodge Region: South Devon Sleeps: 8 Overview The beautifully styled Rattery Lodge is a splendid family retreat nestled in the South Devon countryside at Rattery, a charming little village close to Totnes. With four wonderful bedrooms, this immaculate holiday home sleeps eight guests in modern comfort. Lush, sprawling surroundings complete the picture where you can enjoy family picnics, sensational countryside views and plenty of fresh air. Rattery Lodge is perfect for a family holiday or catching up with friends. With off-grid, rural glory and oozing both taste and acreage, this spacious home provides wonderful accommodation. Rattery Lodge is beautifully appointed with great attention to detail. Much of the wood you will find around the house was salvaged during the restoration of the Dartmouth Lower Ferry slipway. Knowing that, you may enjoy feeling the banister as you climb the stairs or gazing at the weathering on cupboard doors knowing that Rattery Lodge lovingly contains nods from the past as well as contemporary comforts. The spacious living room is brimming with soft leather sofas and chairs where you can rest and enjoy stunning garden views, just the type that floor-to-ceiling windows were made for. Perhaps you may enjoy a little family sing-a-long around the piano or just chat about plans for the day. The impressive L- shaped kitchen diner is the heart of this happy home. The two-tone white and wooden kitchen units blend perfectly with the ancient beams. The kitchen boasts a wine fridge amongst the excellent appliances. Also on offer is a breakfast bar where guests can open a bottle of wine and keep the chef company while they prepare a delicious meal.

  • Questions from Members of the Council PDF 184 KB
    QUESTIONS TO THE LEADER OF THE COUNCIL AND CABINET MEMBERS Thursday 20 February 2020 1. QUESTION FROM COUNCILLOR HANNAFORD Re: Okehampton Sunday Rail Service Will the County Council continue to support the 2020 Summer Sunday service to Okehampton? REPLY BY COUNCILLOR DAVIS The announcement that Dartmoor Railway has gone into administration makes it difficult to offer anything definitive at this stage; however, the County Council has made provision for supporting the 2020 Summer Sunday service between Exeter and Okehampton. 2. QUESTION FROM COUNCILLOR HANNAFORD Re: Appledore Shipyard Can the Cabinet Member please update Council on plans to reopen Appledore Shipyard, to include: do we now have a date for reopening? is the Cabinet Member aware that the Ferguson Marine shipyard in Scotland was nationalised at the end of 2019, to stay open, and is due to receive £49 million pounds of public investment according to budget documents? does the Cabinet Member agree that if no viable private sector solution can be found to keep Appledore Shipyard open, that it should be renationalised and given government related work to underpin any other work streams? Furthermore, does he also agree, that Appledore Shipyard, once renationalised, should also receive parity of funding in line with the shipyard in Scotland to make sure that it becomes a hub for innovation and best practice? REPLY BY COUNCILLOR GILBERT The commitment and political will from Devon County Council is not in question when it comes to re-opening Appledore Shipyard. We know how important it is to the local community, and we’re as keen as everyone to get a deal over the line as soon as possible and get the shipyard up and running.

  • Civilian Evacuation to Devon in the Second World War
    VOLUME 1 OF 2 CIVILIAN EVACUATION TO DEVON IN THE SECOND WORLD WAR Submitted by S.J. HESS as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History, 2006 CIVILIAN EVACUATION TO DEVON IN THE SECOND WORLD WAR Submitted by Susan Jane Hess, to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History, July 2006. This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. ………………………………………. 1 ABSTRACT Extensive sources have been reviewed and analysed to piece together for the first time a detailed academic study of civilian evacuation to Devon1 viewed against the national backdrop. The primary focus of this thesis is the large number of unaccompanied children who were officially evacuated to the County under the auspices of the Government Evacuation Scheme during the Second World War. However, Chapter Six discusses the evacuation of mothers and accompanying children, unofficial (private) evacuees and private school parties. The majority of evacuated children arriving in Devon originated from the London area and southeastern counties. In addition large numbers of children were also evacuated to the County from Bristol and within the County from Plymouth (Devon) during 1941 and briefly from Exeter in May 1942. Each of the three national evacuation waves is considered individually throughout the text as they are quite distinct in complexion, a fact frequently ignored in generalised accounts which tend to focus on reaction to the initial wave.

Summary This report outlines current activities of the Real Nappy Working Group. It provides an update to the Devon Real Nappy Project and Real Nappy Week 2006. 2. Current Activity The Real Nappy Group membership has undergone a recent change following Carol Arthur’s departure from the group. The group would like to thank Carol for her work on the campaign. Membership now consists of the following members: Nicky McInnes – Devon County Council Paul Marten – Plymouth City Council Iain Stevens - Teignbridge District Council Ruth Edwards – South Hams District Council Devon Real Nappy Project Since its official launch in January, 3 people have signed up to the interest free loan offer from SureStart Children’s Centre in Bideford. The project steering group is to hold its first meeting on 25 May to discuss developments so far and how the project can progress from here. The project is about to expand into the West Devon and South Hams area due to interest from the Devon Lanes Credit Union. The Real Nappy Group was approached by the Credit Union after hearing about the project and asked if it could include residents within their remit. Funding will be made available from Vos Amis (a dept redemption charity) on a first come first served basis and is not restricted to SureStart members only.
