The Ivor Marsh Library was created through the refurbishment of the ‘Classroom of the Future’.
Ivor Marsh was a highly regarded former headmaster of Chulmleigh College who set up our community library back in the 1980s.
Mr Marsh recognised the value of reading and we think he would have approved of our ‘Accelerated Reader Scheme’ in the College, which has more than doubled the use of the library by our pupils.
As well as being a school library, we are also open to the Community. We stock a wide range of resources including adult fiction, junior fiction, picture, audio and large print books

The Exmoor Centre is a remote residential centre in the Hoaroak valley near Lynton & Lynmouth where young people and families can enjoy being in the heart of Exmoor. Situated beside Hoaroak Water with direct access to open moorland we have inside dormitory accommodation for ten and in the grounds camping for twenty or so more. The property is divided so that most of the grounds will remain wild; there is a fenced area bordering the river which is the site of the bunkhouse itself.
ST MARY LYNCOMBE EXMOOR TRUST, own the property and became a registered Charity in 2009. The purpose of the Trust is to manage and conserve the area and to provide the opportunity of staying on Exmoor in an isolated situation. As Trustees we must apply the income of the charity “to promote the physical and mental wellbeing of children, young people, families and adults through the provision of outdoor experience within the National Park of Exmoor”.
Established under the will of Dora Cartwright-Williams, it was her wish to see a centre for young people in the Hoaroak Valley in memory of her husband and their life together on Exmoor. Their home in the valley was swept away in the floods that engulfed Lynmouth in August of 1952. The Centre was originally financed and built by the Parent Teacher Association of Ilfracombe Grammar School and opened in 1968.
The Trust today are as enthusiastic as ever with some members having had an involvement from the very start of the project to build the centre. We do occasionally need to co-opt on new Trustees so if you are interested in helping out then please get in touch.
