Community self-help schemes
Snow Warden North Bovey Parish has been fortunate to have a team of volunteers who have turned out on cold evenings to salt the roads in and around the village, in order to maintain access to the B3212 at Bughead Cross.

Best Kept Village Competition Judges Report
North Bovey lies on the east side of the Dartmoor National Park near to Moretonhampstead. It is a small, ancient village centred on the Village Green. It is very well kept, with no evidence of litter or dog fouling. Hedges look well grown and full of a most beautiful range of wild flowers in the village and along the lanes. Walls here are mainly of granite. They are well maintained overall. Wild flowers, nettles and ferns, seem to spill from walls, banks, crevices, the edge of roads and paths, in May. This seems completely beautiful in this woodland setting, which has many mature trees. The lanes and hedges were in good order later in July. The village…
