PLANNING permission is being sought to put up a totem pole in Peoples Park in Crediton.

It would be erected in the far northeast corner in the wildlife area near a picnic table.

The 1.5-metre totem pole was made by local youngsters out of individual clay rings in the summer of 2024.

The wildlife area in the park is “a popular site for young people to gather to eat lunch/ socialise, providing a fitting location for a totem pole that was designed and created by the young people of Crediton”, planning documents say.

You can see the application on Mid Devon District Council’s website under reference 25/01038/FULL.
