  • Three Towns’ Steadily Merged Together on the Ground
    TTHREHREE TTOWNSOWNS The modern day City of Plymouth has grown out of three once separate neighbouring towns - Plymouth, East Stonehouse and Devonport. Nowadays, Stonehouse and Devonport exist as communities within greater Plymouth but, until 1914, each was distinct. Plymouth and East Stonehouse are the two oldest settlements. In contrast, Devonport is a relatively new town. It was established in the early 1700s, growing around the purpose built Royal Naval Dockyard at Plymouth Dock. By 1801, Dock, as this town was originally called, had a larger population than Plymouth. Throughout the 1800s, the ‘Three Towns’ steadily merged together on the ground. There seemed growing practical and economic reasons for them to unite as one. The idea of amalgamation was discussed in 1814, 1835 and 1888. The Mayor of Plymouth proposed a local conference on the subject in July 1902. However, it was the threat of the Great War, and the military’s need for streamlined communication, that finally saw the ‘Three Towns’ joined as one. ‘Cooke’s Stranger’s Guide or Pocket Plan’ of the ‘Three Towns’, c.1826-27 Image:Chris Robinson ‘Three Towns’ or One? In 1814, a meeting of the Port of Plymouth’s new Chamber larger orphanage was proposed closer to Plymouth. This of Commerce saw benefits in a commercial union of the caused a split among the Devonport and Stonehouse ‘Three Towns’. During the 1810s, Union Street was laid- interests because the existing building, near the Octagon down across Plymouth Marsh with union in mind, and on Union Street, better served all ‘Three Towns’.

  • January 2020 Venue - Peter Hall, Budleigh Salterton @ 7.30Pm Speaker - Mr Thomas Cadbury, Curator of RAMM Archaeology Collections
    Front cover image photographed and produced by Mo Bowman From the Editor I write this in anticipation of our forthcoming Christmas party – although there is a small amount of trepidation as I understand that someone is going to be murdered! It is sure to be a great evening and I hope to have a report and images (hopefully not too ghoulish) in the next issue. In looking forward to a new year and a new decade I make no apologies for re- printing a previous plea for your help and support. We know that there are many members out there with experience, skills and talent which could be very useful to our organisation. Our aims and objectives are very relevant at the moment and membership is growing. However, as with all organisations and societies, we do need people to become more than ‘passive’ members. At the start of this new year please give some thought as to how you could help move the OVA forward. Happy New Year to you all. Jacqui Baldwin Volunteers needed Everything we do – and we do a lot of things - has to be done by volunteers. Is there any way in which you could help? Whatever your area of interest or expertise we would be glad of your input whether on a regular basis or just a few hours – distributing newsletters, getting involved with the Natural Environment team, leading a walk, becoming a village rep, organising events, joining the Executive committee, publicity, history, planning – even writing an article for this newsletter! Fresh ideas and fresh faces are always welcome.

Travelling by train along the South Devon coast between Exeter and Newton Abbot is one of the most spectacular rides on the British railway system. Ever since the line was built in the 1840s it has been closed many times by cliff collapses and sea wall breaches. Today the trains are still affected by gale force winds and flooded tracks, including the devasting storms of Waves over the line - a train caught in a storm at Dawlish February 2014. © Anthony T Steel The line is expensive to maintain but kept open because it is a vital communication link for the people and economy of the southwest. This walk follows the railway between Teignmouth and Dawlish Warren as it passes along the side of estuaries and bays and through dramatic coastal tunnels.
