P.S There was a notable snow settling event (Polar low)for this area on 25th April 1981.
I was not living in Wembury at the time. But Plymouth had a good covering.
I was living in Taunton, Somerset, at that time and remember it well. It wasn't a polar low, though - it was a baroclinic feature that ran SE from Ireland across Cornwall and then ESE into northern France. Strong cold advection behind it ensured temperatures fell low enough for snow.

I was living in Wooton Bassett at the time (not Royal at that time, it moved up market just after I left) and we had a few cm of snow. It was rain to the east of Swindon.
