Fix this textCLOVELLY.
Fix this textLOVELLY is a village and holiday
Fix this textresort in Devonshire, and is situated
Fix this texton |Barnstapleii Bay 4
Fix this textWSW. of Bideford. The names of
Fix this textClovelly and Bideford bring to us a
Fix this textbreath of the romance of those spacious
Fix this textElizabethan days; of Sir Francis Drake
Fix this textand the Spanish Armada; and of Sir
Fix this textRichard Grenvil and the “Revenge.” It
Fix this textwill be remembered that many of the
Fix this textearlier scenes of Charles Kingsley’s
Fix this textromance “Westward Ho” are set in the
Fix this textcountry surrounding these two places. It
Fix this textwas at Bideford that Sir Richard Grenvil
Fix this textwas born, and Will Cary, lieutenant to
Fix this textAmyas Leigh on his adventurous voyage
Fix this textin the good ship “Rose,” was heir to
Fix this textClovelly Court, to which Kingsley devotes
Fix this texta chapter of description.
Fix this textClovelly has been called a quaintly pretty
Fix this textplace, and its main street is formed by a
Fix this textseries of steps which rise to a height of
Fix this text400 feet and effectually prevent the use
Fix this textof motor-cars in the village itself. As
Fix this textCharles Dickens said of Clovelly in A
Fix this textMessage from the Sea”: “There was no
Fix this textroad in it; there was not a level yard in it.”
Fix this textThe fame and beauty of Clovelly have
Fix this textattracted a large tourist traffic, and on
Fix this textholidays charabancs deliver crowds of
Fix this texttrippers at the village, with the result that
Fix this textan element of commercialism has spoilt
Fix this textsome of its charm and quaintness. On
Fix this textthese holidays the donkeys which are used
Fix this textto transport trippers up the steep slopes
Fix this textare badly overworked. Two of these
Fix this texthardworking animals are to be seen in
Fix this textthe foreground of the illustration.
Fix this textClovelly has two old-world inns, the Red
Fix this textLion and the New Inn, which is seen on
Fix this textthe left-hand side of the street. It also
Fix this texthas a notable old church, All Saints,
Fix this textwhich was built in late Norman times and
Fix this textwas restored in 1866.
