  • Denbury in the Great
    Men of Denbury 1914-1918 Denbury Place and People the Great War Remember me when I am gone away, Gone far away into the silent land; When you can no more hold me by the hand, (Totnes Image Bank) Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay. Remember me when no more day by day You tell me of our future that you planned: Only remember me; you understand It will be late to counsel then or pray, Yet if you should forget me for a while And afterwards remember, do not grieve: For if the darkness and corruption leave A vestige of the thoughts that I once had, Better by far you should forget and smile Than that you should remember and be sad. Christina Rossetti The county of Devon was unusual, but not unique, in that not a single village survived the Great War without loss. Denbury deaths as a percentage of its population were amongst the highest in the land. My thanks go to the many Regiments, Museums, organisation, websites and private records that you have allowed me to research, copy and quote. Based on research carried out by Mick Sutherland-Cook 1 Men of Denbury 1914-1918 (IWM) Information supplied here is as accurate and complete as possible from the records available. Unfortunately, 70/80% of all WW1 service records were destroyed in the Blitz of WW2. If you have additional information on any of the men listed or any I may have omitted please let me know via [email protected] Introduction This publication is produced from the information gathered during my research into Denbury's contribution during the Great War 1914 – 1918 (and to 1922 when most Memorials were dedicated).

  • A Neighbourhood Plan for Ogwell 2016 to 2033
    A Neighbourhood Plan for Ogwell 2016 to 2033 Submission issue February 2016 February 2016 2 Dear Parishioner, Thank you for your time and contribution in preparing the Ogwell Neighbourhood Plan. This plan will shape the future of the area we live in and I am proud that our Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group, with a great deal of community support and engagement has progressed our plan to this submission stage. The creation of this Neighbourhood Plan has been led by members of our community and is part of the Government’s revised approach to planning, which aims to give local people more say about what happens in their area. Communities like ours have been granted this new power through the Localism Act of 2011. Ultimately we decide whether or not to adopt this Neighbourhood Plan through a local referendum. Fundamentally this plan has a sustainability focus not a development focus, building upon the Parish Plan, seeking to preserve and enhance transport links, the natural environment and community facilities. It is driven by the natural qualities of the area. We make no apology for a ‘Green’ plan. This best reflects this community’s wishes, from the meetings and consultations undertaken over the past 3 years. The Plan’s focus is to sustain the natural qualities of the Parish and conserve them for future generations to enjoy, by adopting safeguards to prevent ad hoc development, and to ensure that the Parish is able to provide new facilities to serve recent development. The policies within the Neighbourhood Plan have been drafted following considerable interaction and consultation with residents.
