Chittlehamholt is a North Devon village of the parish of Chittlehamholt, Satterleigh and Warkleigh. In the 2011 census it was recorded as having a population of 169. There are 26 Grade II listed buildings which include the Exeter Inn a 16th-century coaching inn and houses and farm buildings. Until 1875 the village was part of Chittlehampton and was originally a clearing in woods where residents could collect logs and kindling. The parish boundary follows the course of the River Mole in the east and the River Taw in the south and west. The northern boundary runs from Slew in the west, through Drake's Wood and the northern end of Chittlehamholt.

North Devon Council: Spotlight on agriculture at special public meeting A special public meeting will shine a spotlight on North Devon's farming and agricultural community later this month. North Devon Council's policy development committee has invited a range of local stakeholders to a public meeting which will take place on Thursday, 23 May 2024. It is hoped the meeting will help raise awareness of the major issues facing the agricultural community and explore the potential ways in which the council can offer support. There will be a panel made up of local farmers and representatives from the National Farmers Union, North Devon Plus, Bloomfield Landsense, Exmoor Hill Farming Network, North Devon UNESCO Biosphere Partnership and Mole Valley Farmers. The panel is completed by Councillor Robin Milton.
Questions from councillors to the panel and their respective answers will be available with the agenda from 14 May. more info: https://www.northdevon.gov.uk/news/2024/spotlight-agriculture-special-public-meeting

SPECIAL ADDITION
During the coffee morning on Wednesday 8th May, the Committee are pleased to announce that we shall also be hosting a pop-up shopping experience with Vanilla Black Label which is being offered by Barbara Miers. Barbara sells a wide variety of clothing and accessories at very reasonable prices. Many of you may remember that she had a very successful shop in South Molton called Vanilla a few years ago. Barbara has kindly agreed to donate 10% of her takings to the Village Hall. She will be available from 10am to 4pm and looks forward to meeting old friends and making new ones. Big thanks to our volunteers who organise the coffee mornings.

| CRAFT GROUP last Thursday of each month 1pm - 4pm |
Rather than sit alone at home, several people in the village and surrounding areas are joining together as a regular Village Craft Group in Chittlehamholt Village Hall.
We meet on the last Thursday of each month from 1pm to 4pm, to pursue our various crafts, and to have a chatand a laugh etc. Hope you can come along, bring your craft and enjoy good company. To avoid the need to staff the kitchen each person can bring a beverage of choice. A small charge of £2.50 each is required to cover cost of the village hall heating etc. All are welcome.

Pilates Classes in the Village Hall on Thursday mornings at 10am. Initially they are running to Easter, to gauge interest, but it is hoped they will continue throughout the year during school term times. Anyone wanting more information should contact Sarah Morris on 07875 569517 or come along to the next session.
