The plan is to start drafting on some possible contributions here.

The intention would be to look at a contribution to a wanted artivle and a related one.  These are [[Associated Independent Stores]] and [[Associated Department Stores]].  This organisation, one amalgamated with the other, is a buying and support organisation for UK department stores.

A further area of interests and possible contributions are those of [[Devon]], [[Dartmoor]] and some Devon towns including [[Paignton]] and [[Totnes]].  The Paignton bit certainly should include the fact that it was the summer residence of the Bishop of [[Exeter]] for many years and the residence with walled garden and tower still exist.  Probably issues such as the arrival of the railway to the area are relevant.  The spelling reference can also be expanded.  The Totnes page contains some quite subjective comment.

The following link may be useful regarding the [[Industrial archaeology of Dartmoor]] [http://www.dartmoor-npa.gov.uk/lab-tinindustry] together with reference to Helen Harris's book on the subject.  I'll look at this one in more depth as the whole area is a personal interest of mine.
