Pupils from the Marland School have been given an exciting opportunity to work in their locality with local artists producing unique artworks inspired by the history of the old brick works. The project was funded by the Museums, Libraries and Archives Council (MLA) and managed directly by Beaford Arts working in partnership with DAISI (Devon Arts in Schools Initiative), Marland School, the North Devon Record Office and the Museum of Barnstaple and North Devon. Visit the web pages and see the results of the project and some of the artworks produced! Image collected by James Ravilious for the Beaford Archive (c) Beaford Arts. |

Merton is the birthplace of George Monck, one of the most colourful characters of the English Civil War and a key player in the Restoration of the Monarchy in 1660. In reward, he was created Duke of Albermarle and his regiment of foot became the Coldstream Guards, who maintain their link with Merton to this day. When Monck died in 1670, he received a state funeral at the King's own expense and a resting place of honour in Westminster Abbey. 2008 marked the 400th anniversary of Monck's birth. |
