Download or read book The North Devon Coast Classic Reprint written by Charles G. Harper and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-03 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The North Devon Coast Of course, the ideal way to arrive at Lynmouth is by motor-car, and there, as you come down the salmon-coloured road from Minehead and Porlock, the garage Of the Tors Hotel faces you, the very first outpost Of the place, expectantly, with open doors. But, good roads, or indeed any kind Of roads, only rarely approaching the coast Of North Devon, it is merely at the coast-towns and villages, and not in a continual panorama, that the motorist will here come in touch with the sea. TO give a detailed exposition Of the route by which I came, per cycle, to Lynmouth might be Of interest, but it would no doubt be a little beside the mark in these pages. Only let the approach across Exmoor be described. I come to Lynmouth in the proper spirit for such scenery: not hurriedly, but determined to take things luxuriously, for to see Lynmouth in a fleeting, dusty manner is to do oneself and the place alike an injustice. But the best Of intentions are apt to be set at nought by circumstances, and circumstances make sport with all explorers. Thus leaving Dulverton at noon Of a blazing July day, and making for Exmoor, there is at once a long, long ascent above the valley of the infant Exe to be walked, at a time when but a few steps involve even the most lathy Of tourists in perspira tion. And then, at a fork of the roads in a lonely Situation, where guidance is more than usually necessary, a hoary signpost, lichened with the weather Of generations and totally illegible, mocks the stranger. It is, Of course, inevitable in such a Situation as this that, Of the two roads, the one which looks the likeliest Should be the wrong one and the likely road in this instance leads presently into a farmyard - and nowhere else. This is where you perspire most copiously, and think things unutterable. Then come the treeless, furze-covered and bracken-grown expanses Of Winsford common and surrounding wide-spread ing heaths, where the Exmoor breed Of ponies roam at large and you think you are on Exmoor. TO all intents, you are, but, technically, Exmoor is yet a long way ahead. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book North Devon Churches written by Allen T. Hussell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-05 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from North Devon Churches: Studies of Some of the Ancient Buildings The work of preparing this book has extended, at intervals, over a period of two years, during which I have visited each church, and have studied, measured, and sketched the structures, their towers and most interesting features. No photographs have been taken, except the four forming the frontispiece. For head and tail pieces I have used sketches made by me on former home and foreign travels. The lists of vicars, etc., have been obtained, in some cases, direct from the present incumbents; and in others, from the lists hung up in the buildings, or from the sources named in the letterpress. Where no lists are given, the churches do not possess them, as the manuscripts have been lost or destroyed. I desire to express my thanks to Mr. Thomas Wainwright, of the Barnstaple Athenaeum, for giving me access to several books containing historical references bearing on some of the churches and also for information about several prominent persons of old times, who were associated with some of the parishes and churches; to the Rev. Frank N esbitt, vicar of Buckfastleigh, S. Devon, and formerly Curate of Ilfracombe Parish Church, for a sketch of the cross (now obliterated) on the ancient tombstone referred to in the Appendix; to Mr. J. A. J. De Villiers of the British Museum, for his translation of the inscription on the Braunton chest to the clergy and sextons, who have given me many valuable bits of information to residents in several of the parishes, whose reminiscences have been found useful and last, but not least, to the many friends who have come forward as Subscribers to the book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tourist's Guide to North Devon: And the Exmoor District Devon, there is room for a few general observations on the peculiarities of the Northern district of the county, to which the present volume seeks to introduce the visitor. This handbook treats of the whole of Devon N. And W. Of the London and South Western Railway from Axminster to Lydford, and of the Great Western Railway from Lyd ford to Launceston, with so much of Somerset as lies to the W. Of Taunton, exclusive of that thriving town and its pleasant vale. This portion of Somerset is so inlocked with Devon, to which its associations indeed more properly belong, and so distinct from the body of the county to which it is politically attached, that such an arrangement seems by far the more desirable-all the more desirable, further, from the fact that the district is traversed by two railways, which conduct into North Devon from Taunton, and which therefore make that town a convenient centre of approach. There are three railway routes into the North of Devon from London and the Midland and Northern parts of the kingdom.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Picturesque South Devonshire The scenery of North Devon differs so much from that of South Devon that it has been deemed expedient to devote a separate volume of Picturesque Devonshire to each of these divisions. The present volume deals with South Devon. Starting from Plymouth, the route traced goes northward to Tavistock, taking in Dartmoor, and then follows the coast-line, describing the principal towns to Axminster in the east, and striking northward to Tiverton and Bampton. An imaginary line drawn from Bampton to Tavistock would practically mark off the division of North and South Devon. This volume deals with the romantic district lying between that line and the sea. North Devon forms the subject of another volume. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thomas Ruddle of Shebbear: A North Devon Arnold; His Life and Selections From His Letters Mr. Ruddle, must have given rise to the sug gestion that the writer should undertake so re sponsible a task as that attempted in this volume. It has, however, been a veritable labour of love, though performed amid the distraction of many duties. Limitations of space have forbidden the inclusion of quotations from Mr. Ruddle's numerous articles which lie scattered through out the pages of various magazines. They have been collected, however, and if any desire for their publication should manifest itself, a second volume will be forthcoming. Such is the freshness and vigour of these articles that, as they are read to-day, they not only rekindle the old fervour and glow of bygone days, but are singularly apposite to present-day needs and thought. The story of the man can never be regarded as complete until the working of his mind upon literary, social, educational, and theological subjects has been unfolded.
