This was an update to previous yellow and amber warnings issued earlier in the day. In the event, 45 to 90mm fell in parts of South Devon and 45-120mm fell in parts of East Devon according to the Environment Agency. Two severe flood warnings were issued for the River Yealm and the River Axe and a further 27 other flood warnings were issued, predominantly in South, Mid and East Devon. Current reports are suggesting that over 140 properties were affected by the flooding in Devon, but similar previous events suggest that this number will rise in time.

The Strategic Co-ordinating Group (Emergency services, local authorities, EA and Met Office) mobilised on Friday evening and Police Silver Control was active during Saturday to co-ordinate the multi-agency response.

  • Swords of Honour and Glory by Peter Dale Lloyds of London Is a Universally Recognized and Respected Name
    kin tLCth dl f-~) PLATE I The card given with each sabre to explain the classical symbolism of the hilt. Reprinted from the American Society of Arms Collectors Bulletin 40:8-16 Additional articles available at http://americansocietyofarmscollectors.org/resources/articles/ Swords of Honour and Glory by Peter Dale Lloyds of London is a universally recognized and respected name. Mainly known to the general public as the world's major shipping and marine insurers, its origins go back almost 300 years. In Restoration London the coffee house was the meeting place for gentlemen of fashion. In 1691, Edward Lloyd moved his coffee house to Lombard Street in the City of London, doubtless to secure the patronage of the wealthy bankers and merchants in the Royal Exchange area. Lloyd was an enterprising man and, by 1696, began publish- ing Lloyd's News, a small, general news sheet with some shipping information. As many of the patrons of Lloyds were interested in marine insurance, Lloyd's News became Lloyd's Lisl and was given over entirely to shipping.. - intelligence. As business increased the confined accommodation of a coffee house proved too small and, in 1774, more dignified premises were acquired in the Royal Exchange. About the same time as this major change, John Julius two main forms: presentation sabres, of the type presently to be Angerstein became a member of the Committee of Lloyd's. discussed, and handsome silver vases, which we will discuss Angerstein was born in 1735 and came to Londonfrom Eastern later.

Description: During the excavation of grave 1289 a large inventory of artefacts was found with the skeleton of an adult male of mature age, who has become known as the ‘Amesbury Archer’. Among the finds were two gold ornaments which under the terms of the Treasure Act 1996 brought the whole grave group into consideration as potential Treasure. The gold ornaments and some of the other artefacts lay near the knees of the deceased. However, in general, objects were found widely disposed around and above the body, mostly in clusters. The gold finds from the second grave (1236) only came to light when soil inside the jaw of the skeleton (again of an adult male: the ‘Archer’s Companion’) was being cleaned away in the laboratory at Salisbury. One ornament was curled inside the other. A few other finds occurred in the grave. The first grave inventory is exceptional for the number of objects present (over 200) and the duplication of some types: pottery Beakers (five examples), copper knives (three) and stone wristguards (two).

  • Bluebell, Poppy and Tally Ho! LHG Meeting 16Th September 2015 Introduction
    History of Bluebell, Poppy and Tally Ho! LHG Meeting 16th September 2015 Introduction Some time ago I came across a write-up about Tally Ho! buses and thought it would be an interesting topic for an LHG meeting. I then discovered this book in the local history section of Kingsbridge Library but it was for reference only. However, I was delighted to find on the internet that I could buy a copy for £5. When it arrived 2 days later I noticed that the author, Roger Grimley lived at Bigbury --- so I telephoned him to see if he would be willing to talk to us. Sadly, he said he no longer gave talks — so you have to listen to me instead! This is how the book begins: “At midday on Tuesday 12th July 1904 a large concourse of people assembled at the upper part of Fore Street, Kingsbridge to witness the departure of a motor 'bus on its journey to Salcombe. The car left the front of the Albion Hotel in fine style and proceeded down the street in a manner that proved that the chauffeur thoroughly understood his business and that the brake power was such as to give him perfect control of the car, even on the steep gradient. When the car approached the hill near the station it was evident that the defective and somewhat limited power of the car rendered the hill a formidable obstacle, but after a little adjustment it proceeded to climb the hill and capital speed was made until Pinhey's Hill was reached.
