We lead with a story about a planning application for a lift to service at home below Dartmouth’s Manor Gardens, which has been turned down by South Hams District Council’s development management committee but has raised questions over a possible right of access deal with the council.

Our picture leads to four pages inside and our comprehensive coverage of the Dart Music Festival.

Inside, we have news of a gull nesting in the Japanese section of Royal Avenue Gardens; a police report of arrests over the music festival weekend – though not directly related to the festival – plus much, much more.
