OCTOBER <strong>2019</strong> 7<br />
Update: Woodside Bridge - Initial target reached!<br />
<strong>Exmoor</strong> National Park Authority <strong>and</strong> Lyn Communiy Development Trust have been<br />
campaigning to raise funds for a new footbridge at Woodside on the East Lyn Valley,<br />
near <strong>Lynmouth</strong>, since 2017.<br />
Thanks to the overwhelming generosity of local people <strong>and</strong> visitors, including a fabulous<br />
recent donation of £15,000, our initial target for Woodside Bridge has been reached.<br />
We are keeping the appeal open while the planning application <strong>and</strong> final design details<br />
<strong>and</strong> quotes are completed. Any additional donations received will go towards further<br />
design <strong>and</strong> l<strong>and</strong>scape enhancements.<br />
We hope to make another announcement in November once final plans are in place. In<br />
the meantime, our warm thanks go to everyone who has contributed to the appeal.<br />
The new footbridge will ensure 1000’s of people can enjoy the short easy circuit from<br />
<strong>Lynmouth</strong> along the lower reaches of the East Lyn river.<br />
The crossing will lead to Middleham Memorial Gardens (honouring losses from the<br />
terrible <strong>Lynmouth</strong> Flood of 1952) <strong>and</strong> the beauty <strong>and</strong> wildlife of the river <strong>and</strong> its<br />
surrounding woodl<strong>and</strong>.<br />

10 OCTOBER <strong>2019</strong><br />
Dear Readers<br />
Light in the darkness<br />
Now the kids have settled back into school <strong>and</strong> the weather is starting to change<br />
towards the colder end of the mercury, I am going to talk about keeping warm. Sounds<br />
odd I know, but some of the following devices might be of interest. Cold h<strong>and</strong>s? How<br />
about a heated mouse mat! For less than a tenner you can now keep your fingers lovely<br />
<strong>and</strong> warm https://amzn.to/2kLf751 If you want a mouse as well, there is this beauty<br />
https://amzn.to/2kn3il4 The first world problem of cold coffee? Not anymore. A<br />
temperature controlled mug is what you need. Not cheap at £150 but controlled by an<br />
app, it allows you to keep your coffee hot https://amzn.to/2msvV15<br />
Here in Murcia, Spain, we have had the worst flooding in more than 100 years. 7<br />
deaths <strong>and</strong> 3,500 people evacuated by emergency services. I have seen some horrific<br />
videos, <strong>and</strong> amazing rescues. Some friends of mine, Richard <strong>and</strong> his wife Leisl, have<br />
lost everything. His heartbreaking video can be seen here https://bit.ly/2kKe0CF taken<br />
after he finally managed to get back to his home two days after they were evacuated.<br />
His friends have rallied around <strong>and</strong> a gofundme page was created that is at nearly<br />
£15,000, to help them rebuild. What I find most amazing is that there are people<br />
donating who don’t even know them. Sometimes technology can be a good thing, to<br />
bring light to the darkness.<br />
In the local resort at La Torre Golf, they have used technology <strong>and</strong> Whatsapp groups to<br />
organise help to those who really need it. The flood defences buckled <strong>and</strong> hundreds of<br />
homes <strong>and</strong> garages were flooded along with the Hilton Hotel. With the group which was<br />
created, people are able to ask for help, <strong>and</strong> also offer it. Organising everything from<br />
showers, <strong>and</strong> washing, food <strong>and</strong> drinks to help those on clean-up, <strong>and</strong> get shopping for<br />
those who have lost their cars.<br />
Technology speeds up the dissemination of information <strong>and</strong> that is essential. I had<br />
cause to use an app to report an incident to the local police. Within a few minutes I was<br />
“chatting” with an operator, sending video in real time so they could determine the<br />
urgency of the situation. These apps <strong>and</strong> services are part of everyday life, <strong>and</strong> when<br />
used properly can be a huge help to people.<br />
As always, please drop me a line if you have any specific requests or need some<br />
advice. That’s Andy at ICT@lyntonadvertiser.com<br />

14 OCTOBER <strong>2019</strong><br />
Lyn Defibrillator Fund<br />
The Lyn Defibrillator Fund has been created to help raise awareness<br />
<strong>and</strong> funds to replace our ageing Defibrillators. The current three<br />
Defibrillators will be taken out of service very soon as they can no<br />
longer be supported by the NHS due to their age as replacement parts<br />
cannot be sourced. Our aim is to increase the amount of Defibrillators<br />
in the Lyn Valley to cover all areas. We already have one at the Town<br />
Hall available 24/7, also one at the <strong>Lynton</strong> Health Centre, available<br />
with a member of staff during opening hours.<br />
Four Defibrillators have already been purchased <strong>and</strong> one of the old Defibrillators has already<br />
been replaced <strong>and</strong> is sited at the Lyndale Tea Rooms. New additional Defibrillators have been<br />
installed at the Cottage Inn, telephone box at Barbrook, <strong>and</strong> on the wall of the ex-Council<br />
depot in Belle View Avenue. Thank you to all the proprietors of these properties for allowing<br />
this. These four are all live <strong>and</strong> registered with the NHS so in the event one is needed, any<br />
member of the public will be directed to their location. We have now purchased another four<br />
Defibrillators <strong>and</strong> these will be sited very soon at the Cliff Railway bottom station, <strong>Lynton</strong> Old<br />
Village Queen Street, Parracombe, <strong>and</strong> the location of the final one has yet to be agreed. We<br />
have also pledged to make up the shortfall for a Defibrillator at Holman Park for <strong>Lynton</strong><br />
Football Club which will be part funded by the FA, yet to be finalized. Our initial aim was to<br />
raise, with your help, £15,000 for eight Defibrillators <strong>and</strong> their ongoing maintenance. We have<br />
had the full support of the South West Ambulance Service who supplied them, they will also<br />
maintain <strong>and</strong> replace consumables when required, <strong>and</strong> deliver annual community training for<br />
residents of the Lyn Valley area as part of the contract. I would like to thank SWAST, Richard<br />
Oaten <strong>and</strong> Lee Allen for their continued support <strong>and</strong> for delivering Defibrillator awareness<br />
training, without their assistance this would not have been possible.<br />
The response we have received has been immense, from private donations, businesses,<br />
<strong>Exmoor</strong> Federation, events, sponsorship <strong>and</strong> all the collection pots in establishments<br />
throughout <strong>Lynton</strong>, <strong>Lynmouth</strong>, Barbrook, Parracombe <strong>and</strong> the whole community of the Lyn<br />
Valley area. After purchasing eight Defibrillators we have a healthy balance of £13,700 in the<br />
bank. This means that all the donations <strong>and</strong> pledges to the fund has surpassed all<br />
expectations <strong>and</strong> has now reached some £22,000. We still have donations coming in via<br />
collection boxes <strong>and</strong> other means <strong>and</strong> I am astounded how this initiative has been supported<br />
<strong>and</strong> would like to personally thank everyone on behalf of the Lyn Defibrillator Fund Team who<br />
has donated to the fund to make this possible. We will continue to accept donations <strong>and</strong><br />
fundraise, <strong>and</strong> perhaps even add more Defibrillators if we see fit. We will monitor, maintain<br />
submit accreditation reports to SWAST <strong>and</strong> make sure these Defibrillators are available to the<br />
public 24/7, 365 days a year, for the benefit of all the residents <strong>and</strong> visitors in the Lyn Valley<br />
Area.<br />
Last but not least, I would like to extend a big thank you to all the Defibrillator Team for all<br />
their efforts in making this happen.<br />

encourage residents who do not want to be bothered by trick-or-treaters to download the A5 poster<br />
https://www.dc.police.uk/halloween <strong>and</strong> place it on the front door or window of their homes.<br />
Posters will be available to collect from <strong>Lynton</strong> Post Office or <strong>Lynton</strong> Library after 3rd <strong>October</strong> or ask<br />
PCSO 30366 Grace Cleverdon at any of the police surgeries. You may be dressing up as a spooky<br />
ghost, a wicked witch or a big orange pumpkin but remember to make sure it is a fun night by<br />
staying safe. Follow these top tips: Always be accompanied by an adult when you are trick or<br />
treating : Only go to houses of people you know <strong>and</strong> who are happy for you to call : Stay safe, keep<br />
to places you know <strong>and</strong> are well lit : Do not take short cuts through gardens, alleyways or parks :<br />
Watch out for traffic - drivers might not see you : If you are wearing a mask make sure that you can<br />
see where you are going <strong>and</strong> are aware of your surroundings : Carry a torch <strong>and</strong> a fully charged<br />
mobile phone (if you have one).<br />
Operation Snap If you have captured a driving offence on your dashcam or other digital device you<br />
can now send it to the police simply, quickly <strong>and</strong> securely through Operation Snap. You need to be<br />
18 years old or over, able to supply the registration mark of the offending vehicle <strong>and</strong> be willing to<br />
sign a witness statement <strong>and</strong> possibly appear in court. You can read the frequently asked questions<br />
at the link before submitting your video or photos. www.dc.police.uk/opsnp<br />

Winners of Lyn in Bloom <strong>2019</strong><br />
The National Trust Arlington Court Judges said they were<br />
incredibly impressed with the quality <strong>and</strong> diversity of plants<br />
<strong>and</strong> displays in <strong>Lynton</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Lynmouth</strong>.<br />
They found choosing winners really difficult as it was all so good.<br />
BEST OVERALL WINNER – Captain’s House, <strong>Lynmouth</strong> A charming garden with bold colours.<br />
Great use of space <strong>and</strong> plant diversity. Every inch planted <strong>and</strong> looking beautiful. The whole<br />
area had great impact <strong>and</strong> drew you in for a closer look.<br />
A special thank you to Josie Parker for allowing us to use one of her beautiful photos on the<br />
front cover.<br />
RUNNER UP - Lee House, Lee Road Beautiful subtle but effective colours, well co-ordinated.<br />
Lovely urn between windows. Excellent proportions, well cared for.<br />
SPECIAL COMMENDATION: Tracy Manning, Cross Street For charming display in a limited<br />
space. A nice arrangement of pots <strong>and</strong> seating area, absolutely charming. Had gone over a<br />
little, but still showed great style.<br />
SPECIAL COMMENDATION: North Devon Hospice, Queen Street SO thrilled to see this<br />
unexpected gem! Well kept, great specimens, <strong>and</strong> a fantastic example of what can be<br />
done.<br />
Facebook/Lyn in Bloom<br />
Tree planting starts in preparation for North Devon Link<br />
Road improvements<br />
Planting of around 20,000 trees <strong>and</strong> shrubs got<br />
underway in September as part of advanced work<br />
being undertaken ahead of the start of the main<br />
improvements to the North Devon Link Road.<br />
The trees will be planted over a distance of 10km<br />
between Filleigh <strong>and</strong> Portmore where work on<br />
widening the A361 is due to start in 2021.<br />
As the scheme progresses further, environmental compensation will be carried out to enable<br />
the scheme to achieve biodiversity net gain. The planting at the side of the road will help<br />
establish ecological habitats ahead of the Link Road being widened, <strong>and</strong> it will also screen the<br />
road from surrounding areas. A planning application has been submitted for proposed<br />
improvements at Bishop’s Tawton roundabout. Bishop’s Tawton is one of seven junctions<br />
planned to be improved as part of the multi-million scheme to upgrade the A361 North Devon<br />
Link Road between South Molton <strong>and</strong> Bideford. A planning application is also expected to be<br />
submitted later this year for a pedestrian <strong>and</strong> cycle bridge at the proposed L<strong>and</strong>key<br />
roundabout.<br />

They enjoyed it so much they wanted to tell everyone how fantastic North Devon<br />
could be, <strong>and</strong> bring Mini owners together for fun <strong>and</strong> to raise money for charity.<br />

Top Ten hit for Regal Film<br />
Society<br />
Minehead’s Regal Theatre has scored a<br />
hit with its live screenings of opera <strong>and</strong><br />
ballet from the Royal Opera House (ROH)<br />
– <strong>and</strong> gone straight into the top 10 chart<br />
of UK venues.<br />
Of more than 250 independent cinemas<br />
offering live screenings around the<br />
country, the Regal Film Society has come<br />
in at No 6 in this year’s chart. Its place –<br />
based on ticket sales – comes less than<br />
two years after the society began the live<br />
screening of performances from the ROH<br />
which regularly attract audiences of more<br />
than 300 people from all over West<br />
Somerset.<br />
The society’s chair <strong>and</strong> co-founder,<br />
Victoria Thomas, said: “This is very<br />
exciting news <strong>and</strong> vindicates our decision<br />
to set up live screenings at the Regal.<br />
We’re very grateful for the positive<br />
feedback <strong>and</strong> support we have from the<br />
community for these Royal Opera House<br />
events, <strong>and</strong> to our technical team of<br />
volunteers – headed by Martin Smith –<br />
which has done a great deal of work to<br />
bring them to the Regal.”<br />
The 2018/9 ROH Live Cinema Season<br />
table has been published by More2Screen<br />
which organises distribution of live<br />
broadcasting the Opera House’s events.<br />
The Regal Film Society’s new season has<br />
begun <strong>and</strong> the next live screening will be<br />
Mozart’s Don Giovanni on <strong>October</strong> 8 - see<br />

A full-size piano keyboard boasts 88 keys; that's a lot of potentially wrong notes just<br />
sitting there waiting for their chance to betray the careless musician. At the 'Village<br />
Inn' the other night the 'Piano Man' didn't hit any of them. He struck a great chord with<br />
the housefull of happy Saturday- nighters who packed the bar <strong>and</strong> overflowed into the<br />
street outside. Any space available was filled with dancers, singers <strong>and</strong> people who<br />
liked to fill spaces that offered some good fun. It was a great night enjoyed by loads of<br />
locals <strong>and</strong> visitors alike. Thanks, B; once again you have provided us with some<br />
fantastic entertainment.<br />
When you're a 'Mermaid' the world's your lobster.....<br />
'The Unprofessional Mermaids' raised a few laughs, smiles <strong>and</strong> not a few shudders<br />
with their sea shanties, parodies <strong>and</strong> stuff at the 'Ancient Mariner's cider festival last<br />
weekend. The event was an incredible success with customers filling the terrace, the<br />
road outside <strong>and</strong> the bar. Once again Sam <strong>and</strong> her team have really pulled out all the<br />
stops to give us yet another great event! The whole day <strong>and</strong> evening was filled with<br />
live music from every genre <strong>and</strong> gallons of the excellent cider helped keep everything<br />
rolling along smoothly. However, alcohol alone doesn't make things happen; that<br />
takes hard work, lots of time <strong>and</strong> a brilliant organiser’s brain.<br />

Pioneering female mathematician’s forgotten legacy<br />
It will soon be possible to walk in the footsteps of 19th century<br />
computer pioneer Ada Lovelace as work has begun to restore <strong>and</strong><br />
reveal parts of the historic carriage routes, viewpoints <strong>and</strong> other<br />
features which formed part of her Porlock estate. It is while walking<br />
the terraces of these once ornate gardens that Ada <strong>and</strong> the famous<br />
mathematician Charles Babbage were reputed to have come up with<br />
the principles behind the „Difference Engine‟ - a forerunner to the<br />
computer.<br />
The National Park Authority plans to restore parts of the old carriage ways <strong>and</strong> other<br />
features in Culbone Wood, granting walkers on the South West Coast Path a taste of the<br />
sense of awe that must have been felt upon emerging from historic tunnels into breathtaking<br />
views out to sea, framed by groves of giant redwoods <strong>and</strong> firs. On 5th <strong>October</strong><br />
Porlock will be holding their annual “Cream Tea with Inspirational Women” in celebration of<br />
Ada Lovelace Day honouring achievements of women in science all over the world. The<br />
ticket only event held at Porlock Village Hall sees Molly Rooke, Hilary Bradt, Lynn Pearson,<br />
Jane Keeley <strong>and</strong> Sarah Peterkin share their passions, achievements <strong>and</strong> inspirations.<br />
Information <strong>and</strong> tickets are available from Porlock Village Hall (01643 863117).<br />

News from the <strong>Exmoor</strong> Pony Centre<br />
Ashwick, Dulverton TA22 9QE<br />
We have had a very busy summer with families on holiday boosting visitor numbers, <strong>and</strong><br />
activity days every Thursday throughout August. Children have enjoyed seeing behind the<br />
scenes by joining our stable yard tours <strong>and</strong> finding out about aspects of our work the<br />
public don’t often get a chance to see, this was also an opportunity to meet some of the<br />
ponies. On many days we have been fully booked for group fun riding, taster sessions<br />
<strong>and</strong> treks so the ponies have worked extremely hard <strong>and</strong> are more than ready for their<br />
annual winter holiday.<br />
We had an enjoyable, if rather wet <strong>and</strong> windy, day at Exford Show <strong>and</strong> also hosted<br />
several events at the Pony Centre for the <strong>Exmoor</strong> Pony Festival week including a<br />
barbecue <strong>and</strong> quiz evening for 60 people, <strong>and</strong> a talk about bloodlines by Michael<br />
Dewhurst. Linzi has also been out <strong>and</strong> about giving a series of evening talks at Holnicote<br />
Estate.<br />
The autumn gatherings are a busy time as we prepare for the new intake of foals.<br />
If you would like to be involved in our work we have a couple of new job vacancies in our<br />
riding <strong>and</strong> pony care team. Job specs are on our web site <strong>and</strong> Facebook page <strong>and</strong> we<br />
would love to hear from you if you are interested.<br />
Upcoming events:<br />
23rd <strong>and</strong> 30th <strong>October</strong>: Join our <strong>Exmoor</strong> Ponies in discovering The Wildlife of<br />
<strong>Exmoor</strong> at Night; a family friendly event with hot chocolate <strong>and</strong> marshmallows.<br />
Booking is essential. Adult £3; under 16 £2.<br />
24th <strong>and</strong> 31st <strong>October</strong>: 12 – 3pm: Halloween activity afternoons with spooky<br />

Bonanza<br />
It is with regret <strong>and</strong> a heavy heart that we<br />
have decided to cancel the annual beachside<br />
bonfire bonanza on 2nd November <strong>2019</strong>.<br />
This is not a decision that we have made<br />
lightly. The enormous health <strong>and</strong> safety<br />
liability <strong>and</strong> insurance requirements following<br />
the hugely successful previous two years are<br />
too onerous for the event to continue in the<br />
same format. We have decided as a<br />
committee that this is the best option for the<br />
event, the organisers <strong>and</strong> our twin villages.<br />
Thank you SO MUCH to our amazing<br />
community who allowed this event to go<br />
ahead. The committee will provide an update<br />
on the future of the event in due course.<br />
