IT was predicted of the Great Philanthropist, "He shall tum the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of children to their fathers." The writer seeks to contribute something toward the development of such mutual afiection between the members of the Pope Family. He has found his own heart tenderly drawn toward all whose names he has registered and whose biographies he has at­ tempted to write. The dead are his own, whose graves he has sought to strew with the tributes of love ; the living are his own, every one of whose careers he now watches with strong interest. He has given a large part of bis recreation hours and vacation time for eight years to the gathering of materials for the work ; written hundreds of letters ; examined a great many deeds and wills, town journals, church registers, and family records ; visited numerous persons and places, and pored over a large number of histories of towns and families ; and has gathered here the items and entries thus discovered.

  • What Is Different About the Sidmouth Folk Festival This Year?
    What is different about the Sidmouth Folk Festival this year? This year, due to the Covid pandemic, we are running a Celebration of the Sidmouth Folk Festival. This is a far smaller event than a normal Sidmouth Folk Festival and we will only be using outdoor spaces at the Blackmore Gardens and the Ham and currently no indoor spaces. For this year only there are no season tickets to purchase, just event tickets for the evening concerts we are holding in Blackmore Gardens. All other events we are providing within Blackmore Gardens and the Ham are free with donations to collectors encouraged. All paid for events are taking place in the open air within Blackmore Gardens. For Blackmore Gardens please note: • you will need to bring your own portable seating, rug, be prepared to stand or sit on the grass; • there will be designated areas for the placement of seats in order to ensure good sightlines for all; • after the end of the afternoon entertainment at 1730 you will be asked to fully vacate the concert arena, along with all your belongings, whilst we prepare for the evening concert; • no pop-up tents, gazebos, umbrellas or anything that will affect sightlines can be put up within the concert arena; • from Saturday everyone will be required to vacate the Gardens 1845-1900 whilst we reset for the evening concert; • no dogs allowed in the Gardens during the Festival; • no smoking allowed within the Gardens during the Festival. Please follow the instructions and guidance of Festival stewards at all times. We will be running a Covid-Safe event following all appropriate procedures relevant to us at the time.

  • Download Annex A
    Landscape Character Assessment in the Blackdown Hills AONB Landscape character describes the qualities and features that make a place distinctive. It can represent an area larger than the AONB or focus on a very specific location. The Blackdown Hills AONB displays a variety of landscape character within a relatively small, distinct area. These local variations in character within the AONB’s landscape are articulated through the Devon-wide Landscape Character Assessment (LCA), which describes the variations in character between different areas and types of landscape in the county and covers the entire AONB. www.devon.gov.uk/planning/planning-policies/landscape/devons-landscape-character- assessment What information does the Devon LCA contain? Devon has been divided into unique geographical areas sharing similar character and recognisable at different scales: 7 National Character Areas, broadly similar areas of landscape defined at a national scale by Natural England and named to an area recognisable on a national scale, for example, ‘Blackdowns’ and ‘Dartmoor’. There are 159 National Character Areas (NCA) in England; except for a very small area in the far west which falls into the Devon Redlands NCA, the Blackdown Hills AONB is within Blackdowns NCA. Further details: www.gov.uk/government/publications/national-character-area-profiles-data-for-local- decision-making/national-character-area-profiles#ncas-in-south-west-england 68 Devon Character Areas, unique, geographically-specific areas of landscape. Each Devon Character Area has an individual identity, but most comprise several different Landscape Character Types. Devon Character Areas are called by a specific place name, for example, ‘Blackdown Hills Scarp’ and ‘Axe Valley’.

The Parish Council notes the Commission’s aim to deliver electoral equality for voters across the district. Beer is currently part of Beer & Branscombe ward and the Parish Council understands that there is currently a disparity in ward sizes within East Devon. The Parish Council has highlighted the following priorities for Beer & Branscombe ward: i) Maintain the rural nature of the ward ii) Maintain a single Councillor ward if possible (maximum of 2 Councillors) iii) In the event that Beer & Branscombe ward should need to be enlarged - consider the inclusion of properties to the west of Beer brook (Seaton Hole) and/or extend the existing ward further to the west to include areas of Weston and Salcombe Regis (not already included) Thank you for the opportunity to participate in this consultation exercise.

  • Dorset & the Jurassic Coast
    Dorset & the Jurassic Coast Dorset, on the south coast of Britain is well worth a visit if you’re interested in beautiful landscapes and dramatic coastlines. Over half the county is designated ‘an area of outstanding beauty’ and three quarters of the coastline is classed as a world heritage site. There are no motorways in Dorset, so you will have time to take in the scenery as you meander through rolling hills and picture perfect villages. The coastline has many things to offer. From Chesil Beach, the 18 mile long stretch of pebbles that has protection for its wildlife, to the limestone arches of Durdle Dor, part of the Lulworth Estate. How about letting the kids search for fossils in the limestone cliffs near Lyme Regis or letting them run amok at Maiden Castle, an Iron Age hill fort near Dorchester or Corfe Castle on the Isle of Purbeck that was built by William the Conqueror. If you feel like a little nightlife, you could visit Bournemouth or Poole in the east of the County. Places to visit Corfe Castle One of Britain’s most iconic and evocative survivors of the English Civil War, partially demolished in 1646 by the Parliamentarians. Discover 1,000 years of our history as a royal palace and fortress. The Square, Corfe Castle, Wareham, BH20 5EZ www.nationaltrust.org.uk/corfe-castle Tel: 01929 481 294 Purbeck Shooting School Purbeck Shooting School established in 1995 and occupies one of the best sites in the UK and has been voted as the best shooting ground in the UK with over 50 acres of naturalistic ground on site.

  • Site Improvement Plan Sidmouth to West Bay
    Improvement Programme for England's Natura 2000 Sites (IPENS) Planning for the Future Site Improvement Plan Sidmouth to West Bay Site Improvement Plans (SIPs) have been developed for each Natura 2000 site in England as part of the Improvement Programme for England's Natura 2000 sites (IPENS). Natura 2000 sites is the combined term for sites designated as Special Areas of Conservation (SAC) and Special Protected Areas (SPA). This work has been financially supported by LIFE, a financial instrument of the European Community. The plan provides a high level overview of the issues (both current and predicted) affecting the condition of the Natura 2000 features on the site(s) and outlines the priority measures required to improve the condition of the features. It does not cover issues where remedial actions are already in place or ongoing management activities which are required for maintenance. The SIP consists of three parts: a Summary table, which sets out the priority Issues and Measures; a detailed Actions table, which sets out who needs to do what, when and how much it is estimated to cost; and a set of tables containing contextual information and links. Once this current programme ends, it is anticipated that Natural England and others, working with landowners and managers, will all play a role in delivering the priority measures to improve the condition of the features on these sites. The SIPs are based on Natural England's current evidence and knowledge. The SIPs are not legal documents, they are live documents that will be updated to reflect changes in our evidence/knowledge and as actions get underway.
