Areas are therefore deprived if there is inadequate education, inadequate housing, unemployment, insufficient income, poor health, and low opportunities for enjoyment. A deprived area is conventionally understood to be a place in which the residents tend to be relatively poor and are relatively likely to suffer from misfortunes such as ill-health. The Index of Multiple Deprivation 2019 (IMD 2019) is the current official measure of deprivation. The IMD 2019 combines a number of indicators, chosen to cover a range of economic, social and housing issues, into a single deprivation score for each small area in England. This allows each area to be ranked relative to one another according to their level of deprivation. The IMD 2019 is not routinely available at neighbourhood level, analysis has therefore been carried out by Plymouth City Council, Office of the Director of Public Health to produce IMD 2019 scores for each of the city's 39 neighbourhoods. The higher the score, the more deprived the area is on that measure. The neighbourhoods are ranked from 1 (most deprived) to 39 (least deprived).

    Discovery, innovation and science in the historic environment Going Underground Funding Heritage Research Issue 01 | Spring 2015 As a Commissioner of Historic England and Chair of its Advisory Committee I am delighted to introduce this first issue of Historic England Research. A good understanding of the historic environment is fundamental to helping people appreciate and enjoy their heritage and provides the essential first step towards its effective protection. The work of discovery, interpretation and innovation that Historic England will now undertake and sponsor builds on our work as English Heritage and will be vital in improving this understanding. In the next issue we will outline our future plans in more detail. In the meantime this issue explores a selection of the fascinating projects on which we are already working. These range from the use of aerial drones for survey to advances in ground penetrating radar and from man-made caves in Nottingham to housing for the elderly in London.

    © Lonely Planet Publications 240 241 Southwest England From the broad sandy beaches of Devon and Cornwall and the vibrant cities of Bristol and Bath to the endearingly old-fashioned seaside resorts of Torquay, Lyme Regis and Weymouth, the southwest is one of Britain’s richest and most rewarding areas. Few regions in Britain can boast such a fantastically diverse mix of landscapes, communities and characters – this is a patchwork land of rural fields and rugged cliffs, sleepy hamlets and medieval market towns, Roman settlements and picturesque fishing harbours. First settled by prehistoric people and later inhabited by successive waves of Celtic, Saxon, Roman and Norman invaders, this corner of Britain was once divided into several self-governing kingdoms, and that sense of separateness endures to this day. The differences between the region’s five counties – Wiltshire, Dorset, Somerset, Devon and Cornwall – may not be im- mediately obvious to the first-time visitor, but spend a little time here and you’ll soon realise SOUTHWEST ENGLAND just how different these next-door neighbours are beneath the surface. The rural counties of Wiltshire, Somerset and Dorset once made up the old kingdom of Wessex, which officially disappeared in the 8th century but was memorably revived in the novels of Thomas Hardy. This is an area best known for its ancient heritage, home to the mysterious stone circles of Avebury and Stonehenge, as well as an astonishing array of barrows, burial mounds and hilltop forts and the cathedral cities of Wells and Salisbury. To the west of Wessex is Devon, famous for its cream teas and coastal scenery, and still one of Britain’s favourite home-grown holiday spots.
