Settlement Profile: Lydford 1 Introduction While set against a village history which is of great significance, the buildings of Lydford are, by and large, late, unremarkable and modest, both in size and architecture.

  • Higher Uppacott, Medieval Transhumance and the Dartmoor
    Higher Uppacott, Medieval Transhumance and the Dartmoor Longhouse The paper explored the reasons for the survival of medieval longhouses in great num- bers on the eastern fringes of Dartmoor. It made great use of Harold Fox’s recently pub- lished research into the medieval development of Dartmoor under royal control and the evidence of transhumance, that is to say the movement of lowland cattle onto the high moor during the summer months. (Dartmoor’s Alluring Uplands: Transhumance and Pastoral Man- agement in the Middle Ages, Harold Fox, published in 2012 by the University of Exeter Press.) He explains how everyone in Devon had the right to pasture their stock on Dartmoor and how the crown sought to control this and make money from it. There were gates which were to be opened on a certain date which had been announced publicly in the major mar- ket towns of the county; how the ancient tenements were established on the moor with free pasturage rights but the obligation that the tenant present himself on horseback for the drifts (when the cattle were counted and appropriate charges levied), how the surrounding parishes had venville rights which meant that they paid a small sum for pasturage Figure 1: Dartmoor Longhouse: Higher Uppacott, Poundsgate, WITM rights but also could, like the tenants of the Ancient Tenements, charge lowlanders to look after their stock, how droveways can be identified throughout Devon and so on. Fox envis- ages a red sea of cattle ebbing and flowing to and from the high moor. He also explains the math’s describing a virtuous circle where all involved made money from this controlled transhumance.

  • Dartmoor Accommodation List
    Dartmoor Accommodation List Lightweight camping is a traditional way of enjoying Dartmoor's remote areas, and if undertaken sensibly is entirely acceptable. Camping in less remote areas, particularly on roadsides, and bad camping practice anywhere, can cause problems of pollution and reduce the enjoyment of others. Under the Dartmoor Commons Act there is a byelaw designed to permit what is harmless, but control what is potentially damaging. It applies to all common land on Dartmoor (i.e. most of the unenclosed moorland), and this should be taken into account. Please ensure that no more than two teams are camped in any wild location to comply with the National Park’s guidance on low impact camping. The National Park also require locations to be separated by at least 100m and be out of sight of roads. Dartmoor National Park camping advice One of the great advantages of coming to Dartmoor is the wide availability of wild and basic campsites excellent for gold level expeditions, providing isolation and solitude key to a successful expedition. The National Park website has an interactive Camping Map showing where you can, and cannot, legally camp wild. It can be found at: http://www.dartmoor.gov.uk/about-us/about-us-maps/new-camping-map We are very lucky on Dartmoor having 50% of the land within the National Park boundary accessible on foot. Some 32,500 hectares is common land which means that on most of this land you are free to wild camp anywhere (subject to local commons byelaws and firing restrictions). On another 7,000 hectares which was opened up in August 2005 under the Countryside and Public Rights of Way Act 2000, camping could be allowed if the landowner gives you permission.

Introduction 1.1 South Hams District Council and West Devon Borough Council commissioned naa to undertake a joint Playing Pitch Assessment and Strategy for their two authorities in June 2014. This process was to be linked with, and follow on from, the Playing Pitch Strategy Assessment which naa was currently producing for Plymouth City Council. It has been regarded as essential that both strategies address cross boundary issues and displaced demand between the different authorities. 1.2 South Hams and West Devon Councils are committed to producing a new Playing Pitch Strategy in order to ascertain the current availability of all sports pitches and related facilities across both areas and the requirements for the future. The quality of playing pitches and the level of community access will also be assessed. Once identified, these factors will enable both Councils to identify and plan improvements as well as prioritise any investment. This information will also be used to inform development within each area through the local planning process.
