  • YELVERTON MEN on the CRAPSTONE WAR MEMORIAL Short Biographies of Those Who Lost Their Lives in WW1 Compiled by Peter Hamilton-Leggett October 2014
    YELVERTON MEN ON THE CRAPSTONE WAR MEMORIAL short biographies of those who lost their lives in WW1 compiled by Peter Hamilton-Leggett October 2014 In this, the centenary year of the Great War, it is a fitting tribute we owe to those who sacrificed their lives for the freedoms we so cherish today. There was a "naivety and innocence" among the men who signed up for the First World War. They had no idea of what they were going into. They didn't just sacrifice their lives, they sacrificed their future and left a sad and depleted generation behind. Recruitment was intense both in Tavistock & Plymouth - bright uniforms, interesting military equipment, brass bands, local dignitaries, friendly recruiting officers, enticing leaflets (see Europe for Free) and press coverage. However, the people of Devon were reluctant to come forward especially as war broke out at harvest time. In Devon many stayed at home to farm. The national average who went to war in each village was 11% whereas Devon averaged only 5% but our part of West Devon seems to have kicked this trend. Of the 1,788 inhabitants in Buckland Monachorum 208 went off to fight. 36 lost their lives of which 10 lived in Yelverton. The area also lead the way in generosity by collecting eggs & sphagnum moss, knitting garments and sending food parcels let alone collecting £1000s. The hotly debated Military Service Act came into force on 2 March 1916. From this date, most single men between the ages of eighteen and forty-one years old were considered to be in the military and could be called-up to fight at any time.

  • Mathieu Twinning Visit a Group Photo Outside Walkhampton Memorial Hall 2 Editorial Jenny Sharp Welcome to the Summer Edition of the Burrator Beacon
    Burrator – Mathieu Twinning Visit A Group Photo outside Walkhampton Memorial Hall 2 Editorial Jenny Sharp Welcome to the Summer Edition of the Burrator Beacon. Hopefully the season of Summer will bring with it the summer weather we all long for, the rain we needed for the gardens has been around for the last few weeks, now we need some sun! Summer brings the usual round of Garden Society Shows - Meavy‟s is on 13th August and Walkhampton‟s on 27th August; Fun Days and Fetes – Sheepstor has a BBQ and Summer Fun Evening on 6th August and Walkhampton have their Fun Day on 18th September; our Churches are open to visitors with the added benefit of refreshments every Tuesday and Wednesday at St Mary‟s, Walkhampton and a walk followed by a cream tea at St Peter‟s, Meavy on 21st August. The beginning of September sees the 27th Annual Art and Craft Exhibition at Walkhampton where local artists display their talent. There should be plenty to keep people busy come rain or shine over the next few months. All these events are run by volunteers within your community. I know how difficult it can be to get people to volunteer their time or effort in helping out, we are all busy people with busy lives, be it jobs, families or both. You may not want to join a committee – I know that is not everyone‟s cup of tea, but all committees need extra bodies to help out on the day of the fair, the show, the exhibition, or the day before putting it all together, or the day after taking it all apart – your offer of just an hour‟s help will earn you a great big „thanks and yes please!‟.
