  • Here It Became Obvious That Hollacombe Crediton and Not Hollacombe Winkleigh Was Implied and Quite a Different Proposition
    INTRODUCTION In 1876 Charles Worthy wrote “The History of the Manor and Church of Winkleigh”, the first and only book on Winkleigh to be published. Although this valuable little handbook contains many items of interest, not all of which fall within the range of its title, it is not a complete history and consequently fails to meet the requirements of the Devonshire Association. More than a dozen years ago a friend remarked to me that the monks of Crediton at one time used to walk to Hollacombe in order to preach at the ancient chapel of Hollacombe Barton. I was so surprised by this seemingly long trek that I made enquiries of the Devonshire Association. I was referred to the Tower Library of Crediton Church where it became obvious that Hollacombe Crediton and not Hollacombe Winkleigh was implied and quite a different proposition. Meantime the Honorary General Editor of the Parochial Section (Hugh R. Watkins Esq.) suggested that I should write a history of Winkleigh. The undertaking was accepted although it was clear that my only qualification for the task was a deep regard for the associations of the parish combined with a particularly intense love for the hamlet of Hollacombe. The result of this labour of love, produced in scanty spare time, and spread over the intervening years should be considered with these points in view. The proof of this present pudding will be measured by the ease with which the less immediately interesting parts can be assimilated by the general reader. Due care has been taken to verify all the subject matter.

This special school *currently operates across 3 separate school sites for students who have Social, Emotional and/or Mental Health (SEMH) needs. The structure consists of: • Marland Residential School (Peters Marland, Torrington) – Years 4-11 (boys only). • Marland Secondary Day School (Roundswell, Barnstaple) – Years 7-11 (coed. but currently boys only). • Marland Primary Day School (Bideford) – Years 2-7 (coed. but currently boys only). * The school is currently in advanced discussions with Devon Local Authority to further expand our provisions. All students have an Education Health Care Plan (EHCP) identifying SEMH as their primary need, the majority with associated resultant behavioural issues. Many students have additional needs (e.g. ASD, ADHD, OCD, Tourette’s and Moderate or Specific Learning Difficulties / Delays, etc.). Post 16 destinations for students are predominantly successful for the majority of school leavers (FE / HE, Training and/or Employment). Former students often maintain contact with the school and positively acknowledge and praise the support that it offered them. In November 2016 the whole school received a joint ‘Integrated’ Education and Residential Care inspection and was judged to be GOOD in all nine categories.
