NEWTON POPPLEFORD Sidmouth Devon EX10 0ER ● M.O.T St Luke St Gregory the Great St John the Baptist Newton Poppleford Harpford (BCP) Colaton Raleigh The Archbishops of Canterbury and York have called (Tuesday 17th March) for Church of England churches to put public worship on hold and become a “different sort of church” in the coming months to face the challenge of coronavirus. In a joint letter, Archbishops Justin Welby and John Sentamu said it was now necessary to put public services on hold until further notice. But they said that far from having to “shut up shop”, the Church of England must face the challenge by becoming a radically different kind of church rooted in prayer and serving others. The Archbishops expressed the desire that church buildings may, where practical, remain open as places of prayer for the community, observing social distancing recommendations. And they urged congregations to be in the forefront of providing practical care and support for the most poor and the most vulnerable during the crisis. “Being a part of the Church of England is going to look very different in the days ahead,” they wrote. “Our life is going to be less characterised by attendance at church on Sunday, and more characterised by the prayer and service we offer each day. We may not be able to pray with people in the ways that we are used to, but we can certainly pray for people. And we can certainly offer practical care and support. “Then by our service, and by our love, Jesus Christ will be made known, and the hope of the gospel – a hope that can counter fear and isolation - will spread across our land.” The Vicar is the Reverend Mark Ward on 01395 568390, [email protected] also at www.facebook.com/revmarkward.

    PTE/15/16 Cabinet 11 March 2015 Flood Risk Management Action Plan 2015/16 Report of the Head of Planning, Transportation and Environment Please note that the following recommendations are subject to consideration and determination by the Cabinet (and confirmation under the provisions of the Council's Constitution) before taking effect. Recommendation: It is recommended that Cabinet: (a) approves the implementation of the 2015/16 Action Plan by the County Council’s Flood Risk Management Team; (b) delegates to the Head of Planning, Transportation and Environment, in consultation with the Cabinet Member with responsibility for flooding, any changes to the programme and related expenditure of less than £50k. 1. Purpose The aim of this report is to provide Cabinet with an update on delivery of the 2014/15 Flood Risk Management Action Plan and gain approval for the implementation of the proposed Action Plan for 2015/16. A process, by which actions can be amended or reprioritised, subject to delivery opportunities, is also proposed. 2. Summary As a result of the widespread flooding experienced in Devon over recent years a prioritised programme of works has been developed. This has been prepared in accordance with the Local Flood Risk Management Strategy and where possible in partnership with other Risk Management Authorities. 3. Update on Achievements for 2014/15 As a result of the works delivered by Devon County Council and in some cases through partnership working with the Environment Agency and District Councils, up to 150 properties have been provided with improved flood protection this year, so reducing the risk of further internal flooding.

A Sunday service on 'Zoom' is held at 10.00am each Sunday mainly for the congregations of Mark's 'patch' – the parishes of Newton Poppleford, Harpford, Colaton Raleigh and Tipton St John with Venn Ottery – though anyone with internet access is welcome to join in. Email Mark Ward (as below) to receive the link to join in. Ring a friend if you don't know how to use Zoom – more than half the population have learnt how to use it in the last few months. Mark is planning to follow this each Sunday with a simple said service in St Luke's Church, Newton Poppleford at 11.00am. Of course, this will have to follow the safety rules – hand sanitising on entry and exit, social distancing and wearing of face covering. No singing is permitted, so it won't be 'returning to normal' At present, chairs are set out at 2 metre distancing, so there is only space for some 20 people (depending on how many come as couples or family groups). You'll be welcomed if you do come, but please obey any instructions from the steward, and don't be disappointed if there is not enough room to fit you in safely. Colaton Raleigh Church is open for private prayer a couple of mornings a week – see the notice board on the church gate for updated days and times, and please respect the safety and distancing rules.

Important habitats and designated sites Contains Ordnance Survey data © Crown copyright and database The Otter catchment is located within two landscapes of right 2015. Map produced using data from Devon Biodiversity national importance recognised as Areas of Outstanding Records Centre 2019 Natural Beauty (East Devon AONB and the Blackdown Hills AONB). The Blackdown Hills AONB covers the upper reaches of the catchment, north of Honiton, while the area south of Ottery St Mary includes the East Devon AONB. The coastal strip also comprises part of the Dorset and East Devon Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site. Of the 12% of the catchment that supports important wildlife habitats, lowland heathland covers the largest area, mainly in the south- west of the catchment (the East Devon Pebblebed Heaths). In addition, there are also smaller heaths to the north and east. Coastal and floodplain grazing marsh is the second most abundant habitat found alongside the main River Otter from Honiton to Budleigh Salterton. The East Devon Pebblebed Heaths were designated as a SSSI as ‘nationally important, representative of the inland Atlantic-climate, lowland heathlands of Britain and north-west Europe.’ It is the largest block of lowland heath in Devon (1,133 ha) supporting a diverse range of heathland communities. It supports a wide range of birds and invertebrates, with 24 species of dragonfly and damselfly, including the southern damselfly, Coenagrion mercuriale, and small red damselfly, Ceriagrion tenellum, rare butterflies such as the pearl- bordered fritillary, Boloria euphrosyne, and silver-studded blue, Plebejus argus, and heathland birds such as the nightjar, Caprimulgus europaeus, Dartford warbler, Sylvia undata, and the hobby, Falco subbuteo.

  • Fire Beacon Hill Local Nature Reserve
    FIRE BEACON HILL LOCAL NATURE RESERVE Public review and consultation on current management and future options Information Leaflet FIRE BEACON HILL LOCAL NATURE RESERVE Grid Reference: SY 112 908 Introduction Fire Beacon Hill Local Nature Reserve (c26 ha) is c3km north of Sidmouth town centre at the southernmost end of East Hill and in the parish of Sidmouth. This area of lowland heath, scrub and secondary woodland was designated as a Local Nature Reserve (LNR) in 1992. All the LNR is designated Common Land. It is within the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is also a County Wildlife Site. The northern part of this triangular site is 225m above sea level and is relatively flat but the ground slopes steeply to the south down to 150m. It is bounded to the west and north west by a conifer plantation (Fire Beacon Plantation, owned by the Forestry Commission), to the east and north east by deciduous woodland (Core Hill Wood, owned by the Woodland Trust) and to the south by private farmland. The reserve is made up of 26.39 ha of dry acidic, lowland heath; acidic grassland and bracken with secondary woodland. The high and open ground of Fire Beacon Hill LNR, a remnant of once much more extensive areas of open habitats along the East Hill Strip, is prominent in the local landscape. It is a valued site for public access and informal recreation as well as important for nature. Birds breeding on the site include nightjar (a heathland specialist), yellowhammer and linnet. Mammals include dormice in the scrub and woodland areas.
