Rich: [email protected] This pdf constitutes the Version of Record published on 26th July 2021 Abstract The status of the rare English endemic Centaurium tenuiflorum subsp. anglicum, English Centaury, has been assessed from field surveys in 2020 and compared against previous population counts. In Dorset, 16 populations with c.25,815 plants occurred and there was no evidence of overall decline. It was not refound in one site in the Isle of Wight. The IUCN threat status is ‘Least Concern’. Keywords: England; IUCN threat status; Dorset; Isle of Wight Introduction Centaurium tenuiflorum subsp. anglicum T.C.G. Rich & McVeigh, English Centaury (Gentianaceae) is a rare endemic known from about 18 sites in v.c.9 (Dorset) and v.c.10 (Isle of Wight) in Southern England (Rich et al., 2019; Rich & McVeigh, 2019; Figs. 1-3). A short video describing the plant and its habitats is given by Rich (2020). The JNCC (2020) assessment of its IUCN (2001) threat status as ‘Least Concern’ was based on 1996-2002 data in Edwards & Pearman (2004). In 2020, all accessible populations were revisited to obtain up-to-date population counts. The aim of this short paper is to present the data and update the threat status.

The succession seemed, however,to be as above, and, if that be so, the beds below bed I are probably Bagshot Beds. "The pit at the lower level has been already noticed in our Proceedings; cj. H. W. Monckton and R. S. Herries 'On some Bagshot Pebble Beds and Pebble Gravel,' Proc. Ceol. Assoc., vol. xi, p. 13, at p. 22. The pit has been worked farther back, and the clay is now in consequence thicker. Less of the under­ lying sand is exposed than it was in June, 1888. "The casts of shells which occur in this sand were not abundant, but several were found by members of the party on a small heap of sand at the bottom of the pit." Similarly disturbed strata were again observed in the excavation for the new reservoir close by. A few minutes were then profitably spent in examining Fryerning Church, and its carved Twelfth Century font, etc. At the Spread Eagle a welcome tea awaited the party, which, after thanking the Director, returned by the 7.55 p.m. train to London.

This information has been produced by the Dartmoor National Park Authority in conjunction with Dartmoor For All, and is designed to help and encourage those who are disabled, less mobile or have young children, to relax, unwind and enjoy the peace and quiet of the beautiful countryside in the Dartmoor area. This information will help you to make the right choices for your day out. Nearly half of Dartmoor is registered common land. Under the Dartmoor Commons Act 1985, a right of access was created for persons on foot or horseback. This right extends to those using wheelchairs, powered wheelchairs and mobility scooters, although one should be aware that the natural terrain and gradients may curb access in practice. Common land and other areas of 'access land' are marked on the Ordnance Survey (OS) map, Outdoor Leisure 28.

  • Denbury in the Great
    Men of Denbury 1914-1918 Denbury Place and People the Great War Remember me when I am gone away, Gone far away into the silent land; When you can no more hold me by the hand, (Totnes Image Bank) Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay. Remember me when no more day by day You tell me of our future that you planned: Only remember me; you understand It will be late to counsel then or pray, Yet if you should forget me for a while And afterwards remember, do not grieve: For if the darkness and corruption leave A vestige of the thoughts that I once had, Better by far you should forget and smile Than that you should remember and be sad. Christina Rossetti The county of Devon was unusual, but not unique, in that not a single village survived the Great War without loss. Denbury deaths as a percentage of its population were amongst the highest in the land. My thanks go to the many Regiments, Museums, organisation, websites and private records that you have allowed me to research, copy and quote. Based on research carried out by Mick Sutherland-Cook 1 Men of Denbury 1914-1918 (IWM) Information supplied here is as accurate and complete as possible from the records available. Unfortunately, 70/80% of all WW1 service records were destroyed in the Blitz of WW2. If you have additional information on any of the men listed or any I may have omitted please let me know via [email protected] Introduction This publication is produced from the information gathered during my research into Denbury's contribution during the Great War 1914 – 1918 (and to 1922 when most Memorials were dedicated).
