The West Country / Devon region
Kingsbridge lies at the head of the Kingsbridge Estuary and has been the principal market place of the region since 962 when it was granted a Royal Charter.
Whilst in Kingsbridge a trip to the Cookworthy Museum of Rural Life in Fore Street is a must. Housed in a beautiful 17th century school building, there is a wonderful collection of dolls houses, toys, costumes and old local photographs.
A river cruise to Salcombe is a very pleasant way to see the countryside, enjoy a round trip of approximately an hour, whilst being part of the maritime activity which makes the area between Kingsbridge and Salcombe such fun and so unique.
It is considered by many that Kingsbridge is the capital of the South Hams and certainly there is a great deal to see and do. There is much activity including numerous golf courses, horse riding, trout fishing and a Sports Centre with some 50+ activities.
Kingsbridge / South Hams area
The parish of Loddiswell lies at the heart of the South Hams, deep in rich farmlands, amidst rolling hills and gentle valleys.
In prehistoric times the hill fort of the Blackdown Rings gave panoramic views across vast distances, from the sea to the distant slopes of Dartmoor, and tiny settlements were made in forest clearings.
Hamlets, farmsteads and villages later grew, linked by tracks wending their mazy way around the endless ribbon of field boundaries that even today form the pattern of the parish landscape.
In more recent times the area has seen the coming and going of great social changes; the arrival of the railway and the expansion wrought by the Industrial Revolution.
Loddiswell has also been caught up in the tide of important national events. Throughout all this time, the people of the area have made Loddiswell their home.
