  • Bat Friendly Beer
    Community Case Study - Bat Friendly Beer What is Bat Friendly Beer? The Bat Friendly Beer initiative is an ad hoc group who first met on 17 May 2017. The group came about to promote Beer as Bat Friendly and to encourage collaborative working to deliver a number of benefits for bats, other wildlife, organisations and people in Beer. The Bat Friendly Beer Working Group (BFBWG) at least 3 times per year. The Bat Friendly Beer Working Group aims to: • Work together with other organisations together to promote the village of Beer as bat friendly and achieve DGHBP Bat Friendly Accreditation. • Deliver education, community engagement and practical tasks within Beer and surrounding area. • Apply for funding grants such as Batworks to maximise opportunities for this aspiring bat friendly community . Who is involved? The BFBWG includes members on the basis of relevance and direct expertise supportive of the working group’s functions. Other individuals or organisations are welcomed. The role of chairperson and note-taker rotates at each meeting. A facilitator (Kate Ponting- Clinton Devon Estates) schedules the meetings and circulate any documents and information. The following organisations are part of the initiative: Beer Parish Council Beer Horticultural Society Beer Quarry Caves Beer Scouts Beer Primary School Beer Village Heritage Beer Youth Hostel Clinton Devon Estates Devon Bat Conservation and Research Group Devon Bat Group Devon Greater Horseshoe Bat Project East Devon AONB East Devon Countryside Jurassic Coast Trust Pecorama

  • Tony Jarratt's Caving Log Volume 4, 1988-1992
    Tony Jarratt’s Caving Log Volume 4, 1988-1992 Page 1 United States Skyline Caverns 40m Front Royal Flew from Gatwick via Newark (NJ) to of America 9/9/88 Washington on 8/9/88, stopping in a hotel in Virginia Jane, guide + tourists Fairfax. After finding a copy of “Caverns of Virginia” (1933) in a Front Royal book shop we entered our first North American show cave. This is an obviously extensive phreatic system in very light, chalky limestone. In the show cave section there is relatively little in the way of stalagmite formations – the main attraction of the system being the hundreds of large anthodites in one short segment of the tourist route. The other attraction was the young girl cave guide full of sparkling American wit and repartee. An odd, tape-recorded recitation on the Glory of God was another novelty. At one point a shallow streamway is seen and there are doubtless many thousands of feet of “wild” passages below. Thence to the “Knolty Pine Lounge” in Front Royal for “Redeye” beer, followed by a journey along the boring Skyline Drive to Endless Caverns where we camped for two nights. (Skyline Caverns also have much algae and poor coloured lighting in parts). Virginia Luray Caverns 1hr Luray One of the world’s great show caves, this one 10/9/88 10m couldn’t be missed. In contrast to the previous Jane, guide + tourists day our guide turned out to be a short, fat lad with an amazing southern drawl. Some of his jokes were the same, though.

  • Things to Do
    Things to do... On the estate Walks There are many lovely walks around the estate (a map is in cottage guide). The South West Coast Path also runs through the southern boundary of the estate near the beach. You can walk from Marbles to Lyme Regis (takes 2 hours with children approx 3 ½ miles) or to Seaton (approx similar distance) and beyond. Alternatively just a stroll along the driveways and paths of the estate can while away a few enjoyable hours. The X53 costal bus service runs from Seaton and Lyme Regis and is useful to catch for a return journey! The beach The walk to the private Charton Bay beach takes about 20 minutes from the door. The path is rugged and very steep in parts. You may wish to take the car down the track (rugged, narrow terrain) and park in the small car parking area before taking the cliff path to the beach. See further information overleaf in the cottage guide, but please note that the path can be slippery and is steep in parts so please be cautious with older people and toddlers. Nearby places to visit/days out Lyme Regis (2 ½ miles) – An ancient seaside town with great shops, galleries, cinema & Theatre. Many cafe’s, bars and restaurants to choose from. Sandy beach ideal for children and families. Monmouth Beach is great for fossils, large and small. RNLI lifeboat, boat trips and fishing trips available from the historic cob walls. Parking available at Holmbush Car park - £1.70 all day, other car parks are more expensive.
