A Village on the Blackdown Hills
Welcome to Hemyock Thursday, July 04 2024 @ 05:16 am UTC
Scrabble Club is continuing on the 4th Tuesday in each month at 2.30pm at the Back Room of Hemyock Baptist Church. The dates for February and March are as follows: 23.02.10 and 23.03.10
The December Meeting of Hemyock WI resulted in some members going home with quite impressive Christmas decorations. Home made mince pies and mulled wine were very welcome.
Blackdown Merrymakers would like to thank everyone who attended our final New Years Eve Party and for making it a great success.
The Blackdown Community Choir present their FREE Easter Concert on Sat. 20th. March at 7.30 at Clayhidon Village Hall. Refreshments will be available.
Make Hay While the Sun Shines & other stories from Hemyock, is a new book by Brian Clist who has lived and worked all his life in the village. Its publication has been made possible by the Blackdown Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty's Sustainable Development Fund.
A big "Thank You" to the staff of the Post Office and Spar shops for helping and caring for all our parishioners, especially the elderly, during the recent spell of icy weather.
Do you enjoy a stroll in the countryside?
The organisers of the Pump are sorry to have postponed the 'Thank You Tea' on 16th January because of the uncertain weather. We hope to have another date in the spring to which all distributors and prospective helpers will be invited. We did try to contact everyone involved by telephone, e-mail or word of mouth, but many apologies if the message did not get through to everybody.
Yet again it has been a busy couple of months for Culm Valley Young Farmers who have certainly not let the recent cold weather get in the way of the busy schedule!
We have now retired from running the stall at the Saturday morning market for the Blackdown Support Group in Hemyock. We have done this for nine years including the odd Garage Sale and raised over £9,000. Drier and brighter, though breezy. Turning unsettled later.
A brighter and warmer day is expected, with sunny spells. Turning increasingly breezy as the day progresses, with cloud and some rain returning to the far west by late evening. Maximum temperature 20 °C.
Cloudier this evening and overnight with outbreaks of rain, heavy at times with stronger winds, especially along the south coasts. Milder. Minimum temperature 12 °C.
A cloudy and damp day with spells of rain and drizzle for most, though some drier interludes are possible. Rain turning heavier into the afternoon and evening. Maximum temperature 20 °C.
Sunny spells and scattered showers are expected through the weekend. Breezy, especially on Saturday with further outbreaks of rain on Monday. Temperatures generally below average.
