    2011 Lake Odyssey was a Heritage Lottery Funded project exploring local history through the arts with a particular focus on the 1950’s, when Chew Valley Lake was made. This was a major local event. The town of Moreton was fl ooded to make way for a reservoir supplying water to South Bristol and the Queen visited the area to offi cially open and inaugurate the lake in 1956. The Lake Odyssey 2011 project gave pupils at Chew Valley School and their cluster of primary schools a chance to explore the history of their community in a fun and creative way. Pupils took part in various workshops throughout the spring and summer of 2011 to produce the content for the fi nal Lake Odyssey event day on Saturday 16th July 2011, which saw the local community come together for a day of celebration and performance at Chew Valley Lake. Balloon Launch The Lake Odyssey 2011 project offi cially launched on Friday 4th March with a balloon re- lease. Year seven and eight pupils released the balloons to mark and celebrate the occasion. A logo competition had been running within the primary cluster and Chew Valley School to fi nd a design for the Lake Odyssey logo. The winners were announced by Heritage Lottery representative Cherry Ann Knott. The lucky winners were Bea Tucker from East Harptree Pri- mary School and Hazel Stockwell-Cooke from Chew Valley School, whose designs featured in all publicity for the Lake Odyssey 2011 project. Bishop Sutton Songwriting Swallow class from Bishop Sutton Primary School took part in a song writing workshop, com- posing their own song from scratch with Leo Holloway.

  • North Somerset & Mendip Bats SAC Citation
    EC Directive 92/43 on the Conservation of Natural Habitats and of Wild Fauna and Flora Citation for Special Area of Conservation (SAC) Name: North Somerset and Mendip Bats Unitary Authority/County: Bath and North East Somerset, North Somerset, Somerset SAC status: Designated on 1 April 2005 Grid reference: ST480544 SAC EU code: UK0030052 Area (ha): 561.19 Component SSSI: Banwell Caves SSSI, Banwell Ochre Caves SSSI, Brockley Hall Stables SSSI, Compton Martin Ochre Mine SSSI, King’s Wood and Urchin Wood SSSI, The Cheddar Complex SSSI, Wookey Hole SSSI Site description: The Cheddar complex and Wookey Hole areas support a wide range of habitats which provide feeding grounds for bats. These include semi-natural dry grasslands of which the principal community present is sheep’s-fescue – meadow oat-grass (Festuca ovina – Helictotrichon pratense) grassland which occurs on rock ledges and on steep slopes with shallow limestone soil, especially in the dry valleys and gorges and on the south-facing scarp of the Mendips. King’s Wood and Urchin Wood have developed over limestone which outcrops in parts of the site and forms a steep scarp to the south-east. There is mostly oak Quercus robur and ash Fraxinus excelsior woodland, though some areas are dominated by small-leaved lime Tilia cordata with both maiden and coppice trees. Other canopy trees include yew Taxus baccata, cherry Prunus avium and wild service tree Sorbus torminalis. There is a rich ground flora including many ferns and mosses. The limestone caves and mines of the Mendips and the north Somerset hills provide a range of important breeding and hibernation sites for lesser horseshoe bat Rhinolophus hipposideros and greater horseshoe bat Rhinolophus ferrumequinum.

  • Trinia Glauca
    Crouch, H.J. (date accessed). Somerset Rare Plant Register account: Trinia glauca. Somerset Rare Plants Group, www.somersetrareplantsgroup.org.uk [Last amended 08-03-2021] Trinia glauca (L.) Dumort. Honewort Native GB & England: Least Concern GB Rare VC5 Absent; VC6 Scarce A dioecious monocarpic perennial herb of dry, limestone, usually south-facing sites with sparse vegetation or short turf. First recorded in Somerset by Dillenius in about 1726, at Uphill (White, 1912): still present at several locations there, in the enclosed quarry and on rock outcrops and steep slopes nearby, also on adjacent Walborough. Noted by Watson (1835) at Uphill and at Whorle-hill. Seen regularly at Worle Hill and recorded at two locations in 1987, mapped by Green et al. (2000), but now feared lost from that site. North of Weston-super- Mare, Trinia glauca was found by T.F. Perkins on Sand Point in 1876 (White, 1912) and is still frequent on the south-facing rocky slopes. In 1849 it was collected on rocky slopes under Leigh Woods, in the Avon Gorge (White, 1912); although it occurs on St Vincent’s Rock on the Bristol side of the Avon, where indeed it was first recorded for Britain in 1562, there have been no further records on the Somerset side. On the north side of the Mendips this species was recorded on rocks at Hutton Combe in 1874, re-found at Elborough Hill by R.B.G. Roe, but last seen there in 1988 by Robert Cropper. Recorded by W.B. Waterfall at Sidcot and Winscombe (White, 1912) but not seen there subsequently (although “Winscombe” may have referred to sites on the ridge to the south).
