Have now been told you can draw upto 20,000 l a day from a stream without permission - that should be more than enough for watering the lawn, gardens etc in Dawlish
He who dares wins. I bet that super market feels flushed with success. Do you know which one it was?

Forgot to mention, my bobbing windmills could have solar PV tiles on them as well - so energy in all weather conditions!
I believe you are allowed to draw a certain amount of water per day from a natural source (e.g. stream) without permission. I can't remember how much it is but I think when I enquired previously it was something like the amount that would flow through a half-inch hosepipe. Above that amount permission is required from the Water Authority. There are a number of brooks which run into the sea along ...
You're right DawlishBlue they can never be as effective as powerstations until two underlying problems are solved: 1. We need an effective means to store electricity produced (still no good technical solution for this); and 2. Production is inconsistent - only when the wind blows, or when the sun shines in the case of solarPV. Problem 2 could be solved by another alternative energy source - ...
@Lynne - re disappearing text, maybe flo's deleted it or someone's hacked in to the hypertext
Thanks Bryony, that sounds like the lane I meant - in a gully down to the fields. Isn't it nice that these old paths have names? So I've got something to tag my research on now. Love Lane - I wonder where that name came from?! On the Dawlish side of Holcombe is another green lane known as "Strawberry Lane" which intersects with OakHill Cross Road. The path down the cliff to cross the railway has ...
Thanks Nelson. The wall I'm thinking of is closer to dawlish than that. The top access to Eastcliff Park is opposite the old Toll House on Oakhill Cross Road which used to be the ancient route between Teignmouth and Dawlish. The Minadab is a couple of hundred yards lower down the hill (Dawlish Road) in the Dawlish direction.
Does anyone know anything about a long stone wall on Dawlish's SW boundary? Where is it? If you go towards Teignmouth, through the Holcombe Dip and up the next hill you'll raech the Minadab B&B on the right-hand side which marks the SW boundary of Dawlish parish. Just across the road from there & slightly further up the hill on the left-hand side is a narrow path (/alleyway) which leads down to a ...
