This information has been produced by the Dartmoor National Park Authority in conjunction with Dartmoor For All, and is designed to help and encourage those who are disabled, less mobile or have young children, to relax, unwind and enjoy the peace and quiet of the beautiful countryside in the Dartmoor area. This information will help you to make the right choices for your day out. Nearly half of Dartmoor is registered common land. Under the Dartmoor Commons Act 1985, a right of access was created for persons on foot or horseback. This right extends to those using wheelchairs, powered wheelchairs and mobility scooters, although one should be aware that the natural terrain and gradients may curb access in practice. Common land and other areas of 'access land' are marked on the Ordnance Survey (OS) map, Outdoor Leisure 28.

  • Bellever Audio Walk Transcript
    Bellever Audio Walk Transcript Peter Nash – Presenter Jackie Ridley, Sustainable Tourism Officer, Dartmoor National Park Authority Jane Marchand, Archaeologist, Dartmoor National Park Authority Dru Butterfield, Manager, Dartmoor Pony Heritage Trust Track One – Introduction Postbridge Information Centre (Grid reference SX 646 789) Hello and welcome to Dartmoor National Park and this audio walk from Postbridge pretty much in the centre of the park in to Bellever forest, which promises to be a fascinating walk, with a lot of prehistoric remains to be explored. We are starting off at the Information Centre in the Postbridge car park, and as with all Dartmoor National Park Authority audio walks, we have divided this audio tour in to several sections, each one being a separate track for you to download on to your player. That way you can simply switch off when you are walking and then start playing the new track at the next point of interest, and I will give you full directions when to do this on the audio itself. You will also find that the name of each track include the grid reference of where you should be, so that you can follow the tour using a standard Ordnance Survey map, Explorer OL28 for Dartmoor, in this case, or you can download the accompanying map so you have a back up to the instructions on the audio. Today’s walk is a circular one, beginning and ending at the Information Centre, taking us out of Postbridge to the south and in to Bellever forest, and then Krap’s Ring, a large enclosure of hut rings and then onward to Lakehead Hill.

Action Plan p59 Appendix: Tavistock Statement of Significance p62 Bibliography p76 Acknowledgement The author is grateful to Alex Mettler and Barry Gamble for their assistance in preparing this strategy. 1 Introduction This strategy sets out a framework and action plan for improving interpretation in Tavistock and for enabling the town to fulfil the requirements of a Key Centre within the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape World Heritage Site (WHS). It is intended to complement the Tavistock World Heritage Site Key Centre Learning Strategy (Kell 2013) which concentrates on learning activities and people. Consequently the focus here is primarily on interpretive content and infrastructure rather than personnel. Aims and objectives The brief set by the Tavistock World Heritage Site Key Centre Steering Group was to identify a consistent, integrated approach to presenting the full range of themes arising from the Outstanding Universal Value of WHS Areas 8, 9 and 10 and to respond to the specific recommendations arising from the WHS Interpretation Strategy (WHS 2005). We were asked to: x Address interpretation priorities in the context of the Cornish Mining WHS x Identify and prioritise target audiences x Set out a clearly articulated framework and action plan for the development of interpretation provision in WHS Area 10, including recommendations which address x Product development (i.e.

  • Heritage by Jan Carpenter
    The ‘Lynher’ History. Author: Mr.Jan Carpenter written in the year 2000, all copyrights reserved. Just ahead of the limekiln at Poldrissick, inside a small man-made harbour, the faint impression of a large vessel is just discernible in the river mud, bows to north-west. This fading symbolic epitaph translates as: ‘Here, once lay the bones of the Lynher, a 19th century Tamar sailing barge.’ Although no longer a fixture of the River Lynher, the story of her construction through to abandonment and an unlikely renaissance is worthy of detailing, especially as she is aptly named and her future appears precarious once again. The impression left by the Tamar sailing barge ‘Lynher’ visible at low water in 2000. Courtesy of Mr Charlie Force The Lynher was built at Calstock between 1895 and 1896 on the Devon side of the River Tamar by James Goss and was sold on completion to a Mr Cox, presumably Captain Cox the first skipper, at a build cost of £400. She was over 50 feet in length, 17 feet at her beam and with a draft of just over 5 feet, her displacement was 19 tons, reaching up to 60 tons when fully laden. She was flat bottomed, constructed using massive timbers with an almost impenetrable double skin, enabling her, like other Tamar sailing barges to lay on a stony river bed alongside antiquated quay walls. A large skeg is formed by the hull tucking upward toward the transom, enabling her to hold steady in a following sea, a design feature for her anticipated coasting.

  • Tamar Valley Mining Heritage Project Report
    APPENDIX A Tamar Valley Mining Heritage Project Details of expenditure/commitments on the Tamar Valley Mining Heritage Project compared with the latest budget recently submitted to the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) are attached at Appendix B. Certain elements of the project have evolved and budgets amended accordingly, as the reconfiguration of the project has developed following the sale of Morwellham Quay. Throughout this process there has been close liaison with our funding partners and in particular the HLF. The main changes to the budgets are as follows: Devon Great Consols – the cost of the tip stabilisation work was £15,000 lower than budgeted Morwellham – the provision of £20,000 for the incline plain has been removed due to access difficulties and budget constraints Newquay/Maddacleave – the provision £26,000 for conservation and interpretation works has been removed following the sale of Morwellham Quay Bedford & Russell Fees – the provision for fees relating to the Orientation Building has been increased by £22,000 Staff – an increase of £15,000 has been made to allow for minimum staffing to the end of the project. Professional Fees – an additional £45,000 has been provided to cover legal and land agents fees due to the protracted nature of landowner agreements. Contingency – the provision has been reduced by £18,000 to offset the net increase in budgets and net reduction in grant funding. Grant Funding – Heritage Lottery Funding has been reduced by £26,000 due to the removal of certain budgets from Morwellham and Newquay/Maddacleave following the sale of Morwellham Quay. Additional funding of a net £11,000 is imminent from the Rural Development Programme for England (RDPE) towards the cost of the Orientation Building at Bedford.
