  • South Molton Mechanics Institute
    South Molton Mechanics Institute Mechanics’ Institutes were self-improvement organisations. Originally they were primarily intended to spread knowledge and learning amongst the newly emerging artisan classes created by the Industrial Revolution. They were local, independent organisations but generally based on the same principle, usually containing a library, reading room, lecture room and sometimes a small museum. The oldest Mechanics’ Institute in England was established in Holborn, London in 1823 and by 1850 there were about 700 in the UK. During the 1860s the number of Institutes gradually dwindled with those that did survive becoming almost exclusively the preserve of the middle and professional classes. Extracted from various web sites The Mechanics Institute at South Molton was established comparatively late on 1st January 1856. At this time South Molton had a population of approximately 4,500 with less than 1000 households. Only 150 residents had the vote. The Pannier Market had not yet been built but there was a Market House (later converted to a Post Office), plus stalls erected on Broad Street on market days. The Market House had been built on pillars and arches with rooms above which were used for meetings etc. There were two woollen mills which were doing well due to supplying blankets to the army during the Crimean war. The mills employed between 200-300 men and women plus about 80 boys and girls. The children received a few hours schooling a day. There were also several wool staplers and wool dealers in the town. There were two tanneries and the usual mix of artisans.

  • The Two Moors Way – Itinerary
    The Two Moors Way – Itinerary Day 1 Travel down to Devon. Arrive at campsite – The River Dart Country Park, Ashburton, Newton Abbot, Devon TQ13 7NP. The campsite has a number of exciting facilities that we may be able to enjoy. There is a licensed bar and restaurant on site. www.riverdart.co.uk The rest of the day is at leisure Day 2 Wembury to Ivybridge South Devon provides a gentle introduction to the Coast to Coast Walk. On leaving the coast the walker can enjoy a pleasant exploration of the rolling fields and wooded valleys of the South Hams. The section from Wembury to Ivybridge follows easy and well-signed footpaths and bridlepaths. The way crosses the Yealm and later the Erme, before turning north through beautiful riverside meadows as the path passes close to Ermington, famed for its crooked church spire. Here the first glimpse of the southern slopes of Dartmoor – Western Beacon, rising high above the town of Ivybridge – will give walkers an idea of what lies in store. Approx. 14 miles Day 3 Ivybridge to Scorriton The first section of the official Two Moors Way, and the most testing on the whole route. The old Redlake Railway is followed for 6 miles north, through barren and lonely moorland. The route then traverses open country, crossing the River Avon via a 19th- century clapper bridge and passing Huntingdon Warren, where rabbits were farmed from the mid 13th century to the 1950s. The pretty village of Holne comes as welcome relief! Approx. 12 miles Day 4 Scorriton to Widdecombe A picturesque part of the route, dropping through woodland to cross the Dart at New Bridge (ice cream van at holiday times!).

Excluding listed places of worship, for which the survey is still incomplete,1,150 assets have been removed for positive reasons since the Register was launched in 2008.The sites that remain at risk tend to be the more intractable ones where solutions are taking longer to implement. While the overall number of buildings at risk has fallen, the average conservation deficit for each property has increased from £260k (1999) to £370k (2012).We are also seeing a steady increase in the proportion of buildings that are capable of beneficial re-use – those that have become redundant not because of any fundamental lack of potential, but simply as the temporary victims of the current economic climate. The South West headlines for 2012 reveal a mixed picture. We will continue to fund Monument Management It is good news that 8 buildings at risk have been removed Schemes which, with match-funding from local authorities, from the Register; less good that another 15 have had to offer a cost-effective, locally led approach to tackling be added.
