There was an impromptu gathering of parishioners at ‘Mariners’, home of Pat & Jim Chadwick, immediately above Bay Cafe, on 20th June to celebrate the listing of Bay View Cafe as an Asset of Community Value by SHDC. The gathering took place at very short notice and, therefore, was only a small representation of the strength of feeling in the parish that the cafe or something like it, should be retained for the enjoyment of this idyllic setting by residents and visitors alike.

FINAL DRAFT JOINT LOCAL PLAN FOR OUR AREA
The ‘final draft’ Joint Local Plan for Plymouth and South West Devon has now been made available as per the link below. Section 5.10 is of particular local interest as our communities at Bigbury, Ringmore and StAnn’s Chapel have been re-classified as ‘sustainable’.
LOCAL PLAN CONSULTATION
Consultation has opened on the Joint Local Plan, which sets out sites for potential development for housing and employment in the South Hams until 2034, in conjunction with the Plymouth and West Devon local authorities. Please take some time to look at this important document for the future of the South Hams, and send in your comments to SHDC.
