The house sits within a tranquil sheltered vale in open, unspoilt countryside in the centre of its plot of approximately 34 acres. The surrounding landscape is dotted with fine, mature beech and oak trees, which provide a park-like setting for the house. The property is well presented with a light and airy feeling throughout, and retains many of its original architectural features such as its elegant staircase, tall ceilings with original coving, picture rails, fireplaces, working shutters and stone flagged floors. The accommodation is on two floors with a large suite of cellars that offer much scope for other uses besides storage. On the ground floor are four reception rooms including a sitting room and adjacent dining room across the hall, which both have double aspect windows with views across the gardens. At the rear of the house are the study, the kitchen/ breakfast room, which is fitted with a 2-oven AGA and a gas hob, and the family room which has a lovely outlook over the mill pond. Just off the kitchen is the stone flagged rear hall, with a door to the rear porch and steps down to a charming courtyard for outside entertaining. Off the main first floor are the principal bedroom suite, which incorporates an en-suite bathroom and walk-in wardrobe, two further double bedrooms and a dual access family bathroom. Off the lower landing are two further double bedrooms, a shower room and separate WC. Outbuildings, Garden & Grounds The house is approached down a quarter mile long, tarmac drive to a parking area beside the house, with a side drive to the front of the house encompassing a lawned garden bounded by laurel hedging and stone walling.

The mill stream continues on through to a two-acre broadleaf wood beside an orchard. Behind the house is an impressive two-storey, stone-built listed period barn incorporating a three-bay cart shed with an adjoined part- walled yard and lawns. Outline planning consent has recently been granted to convert the listed barn to a residential dwelling (7- beds; galleried kitchen, dining area and large open plan family living area, along with studio/office/family room. Beyond the listed barn is a further large, modern three-bay ATCOST barn. This barn has planning consent to convert to an indoor swimming pool complex and outdoor all-weather tennis court.

  • Riverside Park & Country Club
    HAPPY BIRTHDAY! 40 years of Community Information in South Molton It was back in February 1979 that local people agreed that South Molton should be the focus for a national project researching the information needs of rural areas and how to meet them. The “Community Information Project” was run by the British Library, Devon County Council, the Citizens’ Advice Bureau and the Community Council of Devon with David Venner as Project Officer. The Community Information Centre opened at 1, East Street in 1980 providing local access to advice and information services previously only available at a distance, as well as bringing existing local services together into a one stop shop. The network of Village Representatives was set up, nominated by Parish Councils, Women's Institutes and Churches, and this Newsletter was start- ed with their help to provide an exchange of information in the 24 parishes in and around South Molton. Several of the initial organisations and this Newsletter moved over to 125, East Street at the Amory Centre in 2008 under the aegis of South Molton Town Council and North Devon District Council - and community infor- mation is still going strong! A wide variety of organisations have come and gone over the years and “Pirate Project”, again based in South Molton, introduced information technology, extending and improving access to advice and infor- mation enormously. Local information became available both on line and in hard copy as a series of Who’s Whos for every Parish and for interest groups such as the elderly, young people and disabled. Local Information is now available to all on the internet - and so is the Community News - with hard copy still circulated throughout the area by the volunteer Village Representatives network.

  • DC14-‐075 February 25, 2014 for Immediate Release
    Connecting Devon and Somerset DC14-075 February 25, 2014 For immediate release CONNECTING DEVON AND SOMERSET ANNOUNCES SUPERFAST BROADBAND FOR 25 COMMUNITIES Following last month’s announcement on exchange areas, CDS confirms the communities to benefit from high-speed fibre broadband Connecting Devon and Somerset (CDS) today confirmed the next 25 communities to benefit from the £94 million programme to bring superfast broadband to rural areas. Last month, the programme announced that it would make high-speed fibre broadband available to 70,000 homes and businesses by the end of July and revealed the names of the latest exchange areas to be included in the CDS roll-out plans. Now it has been able to go one step further and pinpoint the actual communities within those exchange areas, which will benefit. In Devon, they include Ashford, Landkey, Heanton Punchardon, Braunton, Morthoe, Swimbridge, Burlescombe, Feniton, Ottery St Mary, Dunkeswell, Membury, Honiton, Newton Abbot, Ashburton, Ilsington, Kingskerswell, Bovey Tracey and Belstone. In Somerset, the programme will roll-out to Horton, Barrington, Ilminster, Broadway, Dowlish Wake , Kingstone, and Wellington*. Today’s announcement comes as a result of the detailed survey work that is critical in determining how the roll-out plan takes shape through the life of the programme. The new locations follow 19 exchange areas** where the partnership has already made fibre available and a further seven areas*** which are due to ‘go live’ by the end of March – see Notes to EDitors For Further Details oF these locations. The programme has updated the interactive map on the CDS website, www.connectingdevonandsomerset.co.uk, to reflect this latest announcement.

The primary focus of this thesis is the large number of unaccompanied children who were officially evacuated to the County under the auspices of the Government Evacuation Scheme during the Second World War. However, Chapter Six discusses the evacuation of mothers and accompanying children, unofficial (private) evacuees and private school parties. The majority of evacuated children arriving in Devon originated from the London area and southeastern counties. In addition large numbers of children were also evacuated to the County from Bristol and within the County from Plymouth (Devon) during 1941 and briefly from Exeter in May 1942. Each of the three national evacuation waves is considered individually throughout the text as they are quite distinct in complexion, a fact frequently ignored in generalised accounts which tend to focus on reaction to the initial wave.
