  • BIRCH ALLER MINE to the West of Bridford Consols, at Birch

    BIRCH ALLER MINE to the West of Bridford Consols, at Birch

    BIRCH ALLER MINE To the West of Bridford Consols, at Birch Aller , another well-financed attempt to find the northern end of the Valley’s ‘great lead lode’ drove down over 300 ft ( taking it nearly below sea level ) but this investment also failed to prove exploitable quantities of lead or silver. In contrast to the later well-documented activities at Bridford Barytes, there are few references to trace the history of Birch Aller. Even its name is uncertain, being variously described as ‘Birch Aller’, ‘Birch Ellers’ or simply ‘Birch’. All variations however must be drawn from the dense growth of Birch and Alder trees that thrive along the small stream below the mine. No original records of the venture are known to exist, nor have any plans of the underground workings survived. In consequence, what little is known of its short-lived operations is largely derived from brief contemporary reports in t he Mining Journal and from notes compiled by Col.Ramsden, manager, from 1927, of the neighbouring Bridford Barytes Mine, supplemented by what can be inferred from the remains of the engine house and stack, the location of the spoil tips and a final ‘obituary’ notice in the Exeter Flying Post. Reports from the Mining Journal suggst that operations commenced at Birch Aller during 1850 and a notice of sale in the Exeter Flying Post on 1st June 1855 recorded its closure. A definitive work by H G Dines, a geologist working for the Institute of Geological Sciences on Metalliferous Mining in the South West of England, supplemented by a study of The Teign Valley Silver Lead Mines by C J Schmitz agree the probable layout of the workings.
  • Postbridge Settlement Profile

    Postbridge Settlement Profile

    Postbridge September 2019 This settlement profile has been prepared by Dartmoor National Park Authority to provide an overview of key information and issues for the settlement. It has been prepared in consultation with Parish/Town Councils and will be updated as necessary. Settlement Profile: Postbridge 1 Introduction Postbridge lies on the road between Two Bridges and Moretonhampstead, 5 miles east of Princetown. It commands a central geographical location within Dartmoor National Park. It is an important destination for visitors to Dartmoor. It hosts a National Park Visitor Centre, a large car park with room for coaches, and is the base for walks into moorland and forest and for viewing the well-known clapper bridge. There is also a youth hostel operating in nearby Bellever. The village name refers to the pack horse bridge (formed of large dimension clapper stones) over the East Dart River close to the main road. The cottages and inns that grew up around the bridge, along with ancient tenements nearby, came together to form the settlement and community. The turnpike road established in the 1790s, and the granite road bridge that was built in 1792, gave added importance to the settlement. There is a limited range of local services and facilities. However, there are pubs, a shop and a village hall, and visitor patronage helps support what is currently on offer Settlement Profile: Postbridge 2 Demographics A summary of key population statistics Age Profile (Census 2011, defined by best-fit Output Area*) Settlement comparison (Census 2011*)

  • 2020 Paignton

    2020 Paignton

    GUIDE 1 Welcome to the 2020 NOPS Kit Kat Tour Torbay is a large bay on Devon’s south coast. Overlooking its clear blue waters from their vantage points along the bay are three towns: Paignton, Torquay and Brixham. The bays ancient flood plain ends where it meets the steep hills of the South Hams. These hills act as suntrap, allowing the bay to luxuriate in its own warm microclimate. It is the bays golden sands and rare propensity for fine weather that has led to the bay and its seaside towns being named the English Riviera. Dartmoor National Park is a wild place with open moorlands and deep river valleys, a rich history and rare wildlife, making is a unique place and a great contrast to Torbay in terms of photographic subjects. The locations listed in the guide have been selected as popular areas to photograph. I have tried to be accurate with the postcodes but as many locations are rural, they are an approximation. They are not intended as an itinerary but as a starting point for a trigger-happy weekend. All the locations are within an hour or so drive from the hotel. Some locations are run by the National Trust or English Heritage. It would be worth being members or going with a member so that the weekend can be enjoyed to the full. Prices listed are correct at time of publication, concession prices are in brackets. Please take care and be respectful of the landscape around you. If you intend climbing or doing any other dangerous activities, please go in pairs (at least).

    A guide and list to a collection of Historic Railway Documents www.railarchive.org.uk to e mail click here December 2017 1 Since July 1971, this private collection of printed railway documents from pre grouping and pre nationalisation railway companies based in the UK; has sought to expand it‟s collection with the aim of obtaining a printed sample from each independent railway company which operated (or obtained it‟s act of parliament and started construction). There were over 1,500 such companies and to date the Rail Archive has sourced samples from over 800 of these companies. Early in 2001 the collection needed to be assessed for insurance purposes to identify a suitable premium. The premium cost was significant enough to warrant a more secure and sustainable future for the collection. In 2002 The Rail Archive was set up with the following objectives: secure an on-going future for the collection in a public institution reduce the insurance premium continue to add to the collection add a private collection of railway photographs from 1970‟s onwards provide a public access facility promote the collection ensure that the collection remains together in perpetuity where practical ensure that sufficient finances were in place to achieve to above objectives The archive is now retained by The Bodleian Library in Oxford to deliver the above objectives. This guide which gives details of paperwork in the collection and a list of railway companies from which material is wanted. The aim is to collect an item of printed paperwork from each UK railway company ever opened.

Starting on the South Coast near Plymouth, you will walk north through some stunning valleys up onto 'the last wilderness in England'. Crossing Dartmoor, you will have amazing views across South West England, as well as pass old settlements and tin mines before returning each evening to your hotel in Chagford 26th September - 29th September 2021 Devon, South West England Maximum Group Size 8 Moderate Looking west to Warren House Inn WELCOME I first properly discovered Dartmoor, when I was serving in the British Army and ran several Leadership Development exercises on and around Dartmoor. So I am really happy to be able to return and offer this amazing walk across Dartmoor. As long as the weather holds, you will enjoy some of the best views in South West England. You are in safe hands and can relax and fully enjoy the walk and journey I take you on. I focus on providing immersive and original experiences that take you on a journey physically, as well as an enriching metaphorical journey in your life. Adventure is an integral part of being human. When in the great outdoors, in a location you have never been to before, and where you may find yourself outside your physical comfort zone, you end up learning more about yourself. These type of walks opens your mind, and you will surprise yourself at what you are capable of achieving. It facilitates personal growth and development while also having fun.
