Matt Boyle's work 'The River Tavy, Source to Sea' won first prize in the newly introduced annual writer's prize for school students in the Tavistock catchment area, aged 11 to 18. He received the prize of a £100 book token from chairman of the subscription library John Davies along with Tavistock College English teacher Liz Rowe and other members of the subscription library. John Davies said: 'We are delighted to be able to introduce this annual writing prize and make a younger generation of future authors aware of the presence of the Tavistock Subscription Library.' Liz Rowe added: 'We are really proud at Tavistock College of what Matt has achieved here and congratulate him on his well-deserved award.' The subject for the 2014 prize is: 'Recently in a field by the road leading into Peter Tavy, someone found a metal wedge for keeping a wheel on a small carriage, a love token, 12 George III, George VI and William IV silver coins and a King George IV 1822 gold sovereign. 'Who dropped them? How did they get there? What is the story?'
