Welcome Brochure Uphill your Village Welcome to Uphill Village, our Village, your Village This village is set to survive. Where Ashcombe, Milton and Worle have forever lost their tranquil rural feel, Uphill remains a village, and this despite its very obvious links with Weston. The protection of the golf course, Nature Reserves, Castle grounds and the delightful Donkey Field from inappropriate development will ensure that Uphill is safe! Early 19th century quarrying exposed evidence of very early occupation, with flint tools and animal bones found in a small cave indicating habitation 40,000 years ago and those who walk the track over Walborough should spare a thought for our Bronze Age forebears who were laid to rest on this windswept hillock. Uphill's position on the coast gives a clue to its growth. Imagine the sea lapping around the hill side. Though hard evidence is scant, it seems the Romans may well have used Uphill as a port for moving lead from their mines at Charterhouse. It was the Mediaeval monks of Glastonbury who changed the local landscape forever with the construction of flood defence dykes and drainage ditches, turning the River Axe into an important inland waterway. Do not imagine for one minute that the Holy Brothers spent all their time at prayer. More of the salt marsh was reclaimed during the 17th century, establishing new fields known as warths. Most of their trade was across the Bristol Channel. Sheep came from Wales and, during the Industrial Revolution, lime went back for the steel industry and the remains of an old lime kiln can still be seen by the boatyard. In 1592 a French merchant ship was reported to have here "mett by an Englishe shippe appointed warlyke belonging to Syr Walter Rawleigh" and forced in to Uphill where its cargo of fish and oil was seized by Bnstol merchants. Even the Duke of Monmouth was urged to use Uphill as a staging post in his rebellion of 1685. From walking your dog on the beach to meeting the cows on the hill the nature of Uphill will provide hours of enjoyment and interest. The oldest building to survive the Gothic design features.

  • Baker, W, Geology of Somerset, Volume 1
    GEOLOGY OP SOMERSET. 127 (©rnlngq nf $mmtt BY MR. W. BAKER. ICOME before you as one of the representatives of the natural history department of this society, to offer a few observations on the most striking geological features of our highly interesting field of research,— the beautiful county of Somerset. The course which I have laid out for myself is, to pass from the oldest formation, in the order of geological time, to our rieh alluvial lands, which are now in a state of accumulation ; and to offer a few brief remarks on the features of the principal formations, merely to open the way for future papers of detail, on the numerous interesting por- tions of the province, which we now call our own. More than thirty years ago, a young member of our very oldest geological family, — syenite— was observed at Hestercombe, one of the extended branches of the Quantock-hills, and the fact re- corded in the transactions of the London Geological 128 PAPERS, ETC. Society, by Leonard Horner, Esq. late president of that Society. —This discovery indicates tliat granite may be found in other parts of our western district. The Quantocks, and the hüls farther west, are the transition, or grauwacke, formation, and are of the lowest sedimentary deposits. Few or no organic remains have been found in the grauwacke of Somerset, but some are known in the sarae class of rocks in Devon and Cornwall. In our hüls, however, we have numerous beds of limestone, rieh in madrepores, corals and encrinites. This limestone is much quarried for manure in several places.

  • Mick Aston's 'Ancient Archaeology in Uphill' Walk
    Mick Aston's 'Ancient Archaeology in Uphill' walk Always follow current UK Government guidelines for COVID-19 (www.gov.uk/ coronavirus) when enjoying this walk and check the most up to date advice before setting off. Before his passing in 2013, the late Mick Aston - best known for his 20 year stint as resident academic on Channel 4's Time Team -was an enthusiastic supporter of The Churches Conservation Trust, help in� us promote and plan a series of projects in Somerset in particular at St Andrew's Church, Holcombe. The Old Church of St Nicholas at Uphill, Somerset, was a particular favourite of Mick's and this walk was suggested by him to explore the beauty of the surrounding area. Mick said: "This beautiful walk takes in stunning views of the Severn Estuary/ Bristol Channel -and the contrasting scenery of the mendips and the Somerset Levels. I particularly like the open grassland of the Mendip limestone upland, the rhynes (ditches) and wetlands of the Levels, the tidal mud of the creek with its changing water levels, the boats at Uphill and the distant views from St Nicholas' Church, Uphill." Walk directions Start - Uphill Boatyard, Uphill Wharf, Weston-super-Mare, BS23 4XR Start by the new flood�ate in Uphill, and walk throu�h the boatyard. Beyond the boatyard, bear ri�ht, and follow the path that runs alon�side the 'pill' or inlet which �ives Uphill its name ('place above the pill or creek'), onto the marshes of the Levels. If you wish, you can also take the alternative route of followin� the base of the limestone cliffs to the left of the boatyard - these cliffs must have been the shoreline many thousands of years a�o and caves with si�ns of early pre­historic occupation have been found in them.

The plan provides management options that aim to ensure that the beach and dunes provide effective flood protection into the future. Three main types of coastal flood defence are present within the study area: sea walls in the northern half of the beach, sand dunes in the southern part of the beach and flood embankments lining the Axe Estuary. Historic mapping, survey data and field observations have been used to assess changes in the form of the beach and dunes and to interpret flows of sediment transport. It is found that the beach has historically remained relatively stable with a general movement of sediment from north to south.

  • North Somerset Council Liberal Democrat Group Submission to Local Government Boundary Commission for England North Somerset Further Electoral Review 2013
    North Somerset Council Liberal Democrat Group Submission to Local Government Boundary Commission for England North Somerset Further Electoral Review 2013 Apportionment of councillors The new council size has been established as 51 councillors. Apportioning this number among the four towns and the rural area (with a few minor modifications as will be explained in our report) gives the following figures: 2018 Seat Rounded Area electorate entitlement to Weston-super-Mare+Kewstoke+Woodside from Hutton 64,390 19.34 19 Portishead 20,946 6.29 6 Clevedon 17,481 5.25 5 Nailsea+Green Pastures from Wraxall 13,791 4.14 4 Remaining rural area 53,163 15.97 16 Total 169,771 51 50 With rounding the numbers apportioned to the towns & rural area make 50, not 51. On this basis we recommend a 50 member councillor. The average electorate per councillor in 2018 is 3,395. Single member wards We recommend the use of single member wards wherever possible for the following reasons. Single member wards mean that electors can easily identify and have stronger links with their councillor. Also with the reduction in council size, and consequent increase in electorate per councillor, we believe multi-member wards will be both geographically and numerically too large to be practical. Our recommendations for new boundaries Weston-super-Mare The town centre & the north of Weston Our approach here is to expand the present Central parish ward northwards, to take in the north of the High Street and the area around Weston College. This has the advantage of including the whole of the High Street and the central business district in one ward, to be named Central.
