Great Torrington is a short drive or walk away. It has a small supermarket and shops where you can get all the basics. There is an Arts centre where you can watch a film , enjoy an exhibition, or just have coffee. The pannier market is open some days during the week and you can go to the library or visit 1646 the museum.
Torrington is a civil war town and the many people who work at the museum can often be seen wandering the streets in 17th Century dress and speaking in Olde English. The museum is fascinating and well worth a visit. |
