Yatton

The origin of the name Yatton is uncertain. It may come from the Anglo-Saxon 'gatton' meaning 'village on the track'; the track in question is a path of limestone leading from Cadbury Hill.{{cite web|url=http://www.yattonchurches.org/yatton/yatton_history.html |title=History of Yatton and its Ancient Parish Church |publisher=Yatton Moor Team Ministry |access-date=13 November 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090919150612/http://www.yattonchurches.org/Yatton/yatton_history.html |archive-date=19 September 2009 }} The village has at one time or another been called Jatune, Eaton (from ea [river] and tun i.e. the settlement on the River Yeo and Yatton Blewitt), and is recorded as Lature in the Domesday Book.{{cite book |last=Robinson |first= Stephen |title=Somerset Place Names |year=1992 |publisher=Dovecote Press |location=Wimborne, Dorset |isbn=1-874336-03-2 }} West Yatton was also known as Yatton-Kaynes in the Elizabethan era.

Situated on an area of slightly higher, drained ground surrounded by moorland (locally called a 'batch'), Yatton was a well-established village by Norman times. The remains of an Iron Age hill fort at Cadbury Hill have been discovered,{{cite book |last=Alcock |first=Leslie |title=Arthur's Britain |url=https://archive.org/details/arthursbritainhi00alco_0 |url-access=registration |year=1971 |publisher=Allen Lane: The Penguin Press |location=London |isbn=0-7139-0245-0 }} as well as a Roman villa, temple and hoard of coins.{{cite web|last=Scarth|first=Harry|title=Roman burial at Cadbury Hill, near Yatton|url=http://www.wringtonsomerset.org.uk/history/roman/scarth.html|publisher=Wrington online|access-date=12 June 2010}} Older Christian burial grounds have also been discovered on Cadbury Hill.{{cite web|title=Yatton and Cadbury Hillfort Circular|url=http://www.bristol.gov.uk/ccm/cms-service/download/asset/?asset_id=32656203|publisher=Bristol City Council|access-date=12 June 2010}}

File:YattonStation.jpg

In the 1840s, the Bristol & Exeter Railway, with Isambard Kingdom Brunel as consulting engineer, was opened. It was initially leased to the Great Western Railway (GWR) but taken back into full ownership in 1849 and gained its own individuality which lasted until 1876 when all the broad gauge companies in the West Country merged into an enlarged GWR. The station was originally called Clevedon Road and renamed Yatton Junction when the Clevedon branch was built in 1847. Other branches followed, to Cheddar/Wells (1869) and the Wrington Vale Light Railway (1901) to Blagdon from Congresbury.

From 2001 to 2006 the station was operated by Wessex Trains when, in an echo of 1876, it was again absorbed into the new Greater Western Trains Co.{{NHLE | desc=Yatton Station Buildings and Footbridge | num=1129160| access-date=19 November 2007}} It is now possible to walk or cycle along the former route of the Strawberry Line (so called because of the trade in Cheddar's strawberries) from Yatton to Cheddar. A local group successfully raised funding to establish a community cafe in the old waiting room building at the station, and the cafe opened for business in December 2010.{{cite web|title=FAQ|url=http://www.strawberrylinecafe.co.uk/|publisher=Strawberry Line Cafe Project|access-date=12 June 2010}} Prior to local authority cutbacks, Bakers Dolphin maintained a replacement bus connection (route 66) between Yatton and Clevedon. There is currently no public transport connection to Clevedon.

File:Yatton War Memorial.jpg

In 1922 the site formerly known as 'The Pound' was purchased and the Yatton Parish War Memorial was erected. The memorial is located at Top Scaur, at the Congresbury end of the High Street, and is inscribed with the names of Yatton villagers who died in the First and Second World Wars.{{cite web|title=War memorial|url=http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-505183-war-memorial-yatton|publisher=British Listed Buildings|access-date=12 June 2010}} Each year on Remembrance Sunday a march is held from St Mary's Church to the memorial, where wreaths are laid by villagers and local organisations.

The village has continued to increase in size with several new developments planned or currently being constructed north of the railway station near North End Road and Arnold's Way. Development to the south and east of the village has made the villages of Yatton, Claverham and Cleeve almost continuous as far as the A370. Cadbury House Country Club is being developed to become a 60-room hotel and leisure centre.{{cite web|title=Cadbury House Hotel|url=http://www.cadburyhotelbristol.co.uk/|publisher=Doubletree by Hilton|access-date=12 June 2010}}

The hamlet of North End lies to the north of the North End roundabout, just before the junction for Kingston Seymour, and contains around 30 properties, including a number of farms and the Bridge Inn hotel.{{cite web | url=http://www.bridgeinn-yatton.co.uk/index.php |title=Bridge Inn | publisher=Bridge Inn |access-date=13 November 2010}}

The parish council, which has 18 members,{{cite web|title=About Yatton Parish Council|url=http://www.yatton-pc.gov.uk/Core/Yatton-Parish-Council/Pages/About_Yatton_Parish_Council_2.aspx|publisher=Yatton Parish Council|access-date=12 June 2010}} has responsibility for local issues, including setting an annual precept (local rate) to cover the council's operating costs and producing annual accounts for public scrutiny. The parish council evaluates local planning applications and works with the local police, district council officers, and neighbourhood watch groups on matters of crime, security and traffic. The parish council's role also includes initiating projects for the maintenance and repair of parish facilities, such as the village hall or community centre, playing fields and playgrounds, as well as consulting with the district council on the maintenance, repair and improvement of highways, drainage, footpaths, public transport and street cleaning. Conservation matters (including trees and listed buildings) and environmental issues are also of interest to the council.

The parish falls within the unitary authority of North Somerset which was created in 1996, as established by the Local Government Act 1992. It provides a single tier of local government with responsibility for almost all local government functions within its area including local planning and building control, local roads, council housing, environmental health, markets and fairs, refuse collection, recycling, cemeteries, crematoria, leisure services, parks and tourism. It is also responsible for education, social services, libraries, main roads, public transport, trading standards, waste disposal and strategic planning, although fire, police and ambulance services are provided jointly with other authorities through the Avon Fire and Rescue Service, Avon and Somerset Constabulary and the South Western Ambulance Service.

North Somerset's area covers part of the ceremonial county of Somerset but it is administered independently of the non-metropolitan county. Its administrative headquarters is in the town hall in Weston-super-Mare. Between 1 April 1974 and 1 April 1996, it was the Woodspring district of the county of Avon.{{cite web|url=http://www.opsi.gov.uk/si/si1995/Uksi_19950493_en_1.htm |title=The Avon (Structural Change) Order 1995 |access-date=9 December 2007 |work=HMSO |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080130105206/http://www.opsi.gov.uk/si/si1995/Uksi_19950493_en_1.htm |archive-date=30 January 2008 }} Before 1974 that the parish was part of the Long Ashton Rural District.{{cite web|title=Long Ashton RD|url=http://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/unit/10107763|work=A vision of Britain Through Time|publisher=University of Portsmouth|access-date=4 January 2014}}

An electoral ward exists with the same name. The ward stretches to the Bristol Channel and therefore includes Kingston Seymour in addition to Yatton. The total ward population taken from the 2011 census was 9,273.{{cite web|url=http://www.ukcensusdata.com/yatton-e05002042#sthash.0EqTzSyY.dpbs|title=Ward population 2011|access-date= 10 March 2015}}

The parish is represented in the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom as part of the Wells and Mendip Hills constituency. It elects one Member of Parliament (MP) by the first past the post system of election.

Biddle Street has been designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest where management practices and the variation in the soils has resulted in the watercourses supporting a wide range of aquatic plant communities. Where open water occurs plants such as common water-starwort (Callitriche stagnalis), European frogbit (Hydrocharis morsusranae), fan-leaved water-crowfoot (Ranunculus circinatus). The calcareous influence of the underlying Compton soils also encourages whorled water-milfoil (Myriophyllum verticillatum) and stonewort (Chara sp). Also present are the nationally scarce rootless duckweed (Wolffia arrhiza) and hairlike pondweed (Potamogeton trichoides).{{cite web|title=SSSI citation sheet for Biddle Street|url=http://www.english-nature.org.uk/citation/citation_photo/1006788.pdf|publisher=English Nature|access-date=12 June 2010}}

Along with the rest of South West England, Yatton has a temperate climate generally wetter and milder than the rest of England. The annual mean temperature is about 10 °C (50 °F) with seasonal and diurnal variations, but the modifying effect of the sea restricts the range to less than that in most other parts of the United Kingdom. January is the coldest month with mean minimum temperatures between 1 °C (34 °F) and 2 °C (36 °F). July and August are the warmest, with mean daily maxima around 21 °C (70 °F).{{cite web|title=South West England: climate |work=Met Office |url=http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/climate/uk/sw/ |access-date=14 March 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110605003222/http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/climate/uk/sw/ |archive-date= 5 June 2011 }} In general, December is the dullest month and June the sunniest.

Cloud often forms inland, especially near hills, and reduces exposure to sunshine. The average annual sunshine is about 1,600 hours. Rainfall tends to be associated with Atlantic depressions or with convection. In summer, convection caused by solar surface heating sometimes forms shower clouds and a large proportion of the annual precipitation falls from showers and thunderstorms at this time of year. Average rainfall is around 800–900 mm (31–35 in). About 8–15 days of snowfall is typical. November to March have the highest mean wind speeds, with June to August having the lightest; the prevailing wind direction is from the south-west.{{cite web | title=About south-west England | publisher=Met Office |url=http://www.metoffice.com/climate/uk/location/southwestengland/index.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081007072229/http://www.metoffice.com/climate/uk/location/southwestengland/index.html |archive-date=7 October 2008 | access-date=21 June 2006}}

After the Second World War the size and population of Yatton expanded dramatically. With a railway providing good access to Weston-super-Mare, Bristol and London, and similarly good access by road, the village saw large amounts of new housing development. Today the number of pre-war buildings is much smaller than the number of more recent residential and commercial constructions. According to the 2001 census, Yatton's population was 9,176.
