WELCOME to the 2017 edition ofthe Bovey Tracey Town Guide andwe hope this guide will provideimportant local information forresidents and help visitors to enjoytheir visit to the town.
Bovey Tracey is a unique place– a magnet that attracts visitorsfrom around the world throughoutthe year.
Bovey Tracey nestles on thesouth-east edge of DartmoorNational Park.
Set amidst beautiful countryside,
the town’s history can be tracedback to Saxon times, with links tothe English Civil War as well asthe pottery and railway industries.
In 2010, Bovey Traceycelebrated its 750th anniversaryof the signing of its Market andFair Charter by Henry III in 1260.
Close to Bovey Tracey isHeathfield, which is a substantialresidential and significant businessarea within the parish. Nearby isBovey Heath, the site of anEnglish Civil War battle. Locallegend tells that in 1664 duringthe civil war, Cromwellian troopsreputedly surprised Royalistofficers who were drinking andplaying cards in a house in EastStreet thought to be Front HouseLodge. On making a hasty exit,one of the Royalists had the ideaof grabbing a pile of money fromthe card table and throwing it out
of thewindow. TheRoyalists madetheir escape,while the poorly paidParliamentarians scrabbled for thecoins and fled to Heathfield.
The Battle of Bovey Heath wasfought the following day withCromwell winning 400 horsesand capturing seven regimentalcolours. Today, Bovey Heath is ahaven for rare plants and wildlife,which is now owned andmanaged by Devon Wildlife Trust.

Haytor and Stover. WithLustleigh and Manaton parisheswe are safeguarding an oldclam bridge and discoveringmore about the medievalfarmsteads found within theBovey Valley.
These features and manymore that lie hidden in thelandscape, are linked togetherby past human exploits andthanks to our History Huntervolunteers, who meet mostFridays, we are finding moreabout our history.
This cultural interest also
shapes the wildlife found here.For example, the old treesshould harbour our richestlichen interest, Natural Englandand the Woodland Trust hopeto manage the surroundingshade-bearing hollies aroundsome of the older trees on ourwood banks alongside plantlifeto create a more resilientlandscape.

PARKE sits of the outskirts of Bovey Tracey anda five minute walk from the centre of the town.There are lots of circular walks of differentlengths from a gentle stroll along by the river toa more challenging walk through the woodland.
A walks leaflet is available from the NationalTrust office opposite Home Farm café. The caféserves home cooked dishes, teas, coffees, cakesand ices and is open all year. Check openingtimes at www.homefarmcafe.co.uk or ring01626 830016.
Parke has a fascinating history and clues to itshistory can be found all over the place.
Major Hole left Parke to the National Trust in1974. The house you see above, constructedaround 1826, was built on the site of a Tudorhouse, remains of which can be seen in thegardens. The house is currently leased toDartmoor National Park Authority and not opento the general public. The two rows of graniteposts in the parkland, were rails from the
nearby tramway usedto take granite fromHaytor quarry toStover Canal atTeigngrace. One ofthe old trucks usedcan be seen in theopen shed behindthe house oppositethe lavatories.
The weir on theriver dates back to
medieval times and feeds theleat, which was built to run a water-powered mill in Bovey Tracey.
There is an abundance of wildlife at Parke. Inthe meadows look out for orchids and raggedrobin. Along the River Bovey you may seekingfishers and dippers – it is home to salmonand sea trout too. Keep an eye out for otter
spraints (dung – you will smell it first!). In the woodlands, you may see badgers,
foxes, roe deer, great spotted and greenwoodpeckers. Bats emerge at dusk from aroundthe buildings.
Parke continues to be a managed workinglandscape to support a number of wildlifehabitats, a place for people to enjoy and toproduce food. The walled garden dates back tothe 1800’s, when it would have provided softfruit for Parke House. The ground slopes givingthe walls an unusual shape. After many years ofneglect it is now jointly run by the National Trustand Bovey Climate Action to produce locally-grown fruit and vegetables, including,apricots, figs, apples, pears, root vegetables,
salad leaves and cut flowers. The orchard
contains 150cider apple trees.Parke holds anannual apple dayearly in Octoberwhere apples arepicked and madeinto apple juice andcider using anapple press.
The dismantledrailway line is used today as part of the Wraycycle trail.
The Dartmoor Pony Heritage Trust (DPHT) is aregistered charity established in 2005 to protectand conserve the Dartmoor Pony on Dartmoorand is based at Parke.

Bovey Tracey Athletic Football Club
38
ALTHOUGH football has been played in Boveysince the late 1890s, the present club was formedaround 1950 by the merger of Bovey Town andBovey St Johns who played at the RecreationGround. This merger was much the work of FrankFrench who was, at the time, the local policeman.
The earliest documented game was on November11, 1899, when Bovey entertained Torquay Unitedfor a friendly in what was Torquay’s first season.Bovey went on to win the match 2-1 with acontroversial penalty, the last kick of the game at theend of 20 minutes injury time.
On March 31, 1961, in front of 3,000 spectatorsBovey won the Herald Cup 3-1 with goals fromSlocombe, Hydon and Fone. Bovey have alsoappeared in this final, on four other occasions in1931/32 (Bovey St Johns), 1938/39 (Bovey Town),1993/94 and 2003/04 all ending in defeat.
In 1979 the football club made their biggestpurchase to date with the purchase of land at MillMarsh Park (the current ground), however, part ofthis land was sold under a compulsory purchaseorder in 1984 to assist in the construction of the‘Bovey Bypass’.
The 2008/09 season once again saw the clubachieve new heights, with the use of new facilitieshere at the renamed Western Counties RoofingGround. The East Division title was lost on the finalday of the season but promotion to the PremierDivision as runners-up was achieved. They werealso beaten finalists in the Devon Premier Cup Final.
During the seasons of 2009/10, 2010/11 and2011/12, the club saw a succession of managersas Bovey Tracey retained their Premier Divisionstatus each season. With Football Foundationassisted grant funding, floodlights and coveredseating and standing areas have been added,making watching a great experience for thetownsfolk, also a well-equipped kitchen offeringsupporters a wide range of hot and cold food anddrinks.
The club’s substantial youth system runs teamsfrom under 8s to under 16s and will be creating anUnder 18s team in the 2015-16 season, therebyfilling the final gap in the club’s player developmentstructure.
The club continues to be the envy of many largerclubs in the region, producing a large number of
talented youngsters.Recently, Cliff Walters(pictured right) went on tocaptain the Devon Under18s side, and Liam Headhas represented hiscountry at Internationallevel, playing in both thehome internationals, aswell as the U17sEuropeanChampionships.
There have recently been further ground andfacility improvements, with the provision of a newpurpose built pitch, to accommodate the under 9sand 10s, at the Western Counties Ground. Thisfacility is a huge coup for BTAFC which can nowboast to having one of the best playing surfaces forkids of this age group, anywhere in the county. It isthe clubs intention, to continue to improve itsfacilities with the provision of a new changing roomcomplex at the Western Counties Ground.
With the advent of Torquay Utd Ladies (who playall their home fixtures at the ground) now being anintegral part of the club, the need is there to furtherdevelop women’s football, so a dedicated changingroom suite is a must. As well as the Torquay Ladies,it is the club’s intention to advertise and helpdevelop the game for girls of all ages, hopefullyculminating in a second 11 playing under a BoveyTracey badge, but with a view to eventuallyattaining the skill levels required to progress into theTorquay Ladies’ 1st team. The ladies have been abreath of fresh air at the club, and the club willcontinue to support them in whatever way it can.
It is still the club’s aim to focus on its best assetswhich, in their opinion, are the local youngsters. Theclub therefore strives to continuously improve itsfacilities and coaching staff, thus allowing it to focuson what’s important, rather than tying itself downwith huge player budgets, that can and doesdamage football in general.
The club house is located on the Rec (next door tothe swimming pool), and new members or visitorsare always welcome.
Bovey Tracey AFC is a local club, supporting localchildren and adults alike – please feel free to goalong to a match.... you may just like it!
BOVEY Tracey Pétanque Club play on their Piste at BTAFC Ground in St Johns Lane, Bovey Tracey, everySunday afternoon from 2pm through until 4pm or 5pmdepending on the weather. This is a friendly afternoonwhere the emphasis is on social activity of fun. The clubalso hosts games twice a month for Bovey Tracey ActivitiesTrust on a Thursday.
Last year was another excellent time for the club havingwon the South Devon Twinning Pétanque League Shield forthe 15th consecutive year. Pictured left is team captainMike Browne receiving the league shield from presidentBrian Simmons at the presentation dinner.
During the year, the club also won six out of sevenindividual trophies in the South Devon Twinning PétanqueLeague. The club also won the Memorial Trophy whichis played for
outside the league scoring system to remember all thoseplayers who are no longer with us. Pictured right, clubtreasurer and co-ordinator Mike Watson receiving thetrophy from Brian Simmons.
THE CONCEPT:THE sport is played with metal balls and a jack and canbe played by teams of three players (triples), twoplayers (doubles) or a straight head-to-head betweentwo single players.
The object of each end is to get more of your boulescloser to the jack than your opponent (each one that iscloser scores one point) and the team/player to reachthe score being played for first wins the game. Thegame is suitable for any one from about eight years of age onwards.
Some of the members only play in the friendly games on a Sunday while others play in a moreserious but still very friendly competition in the league games. The club is open to anyone whowould like to try their hand at this very easy game played in a friendly, competitive manner.
Anyone interested in trying the sport is welcome to come along on a Sunday afternoon and try itout, no equipment is required. Please contact the treasurer Mike Watson on 01626 832888 oremail [email protected] for further details.
