Details of Cullompton

Cullompton, Devon

Cullompton is a quiet country town in the alley of the River Culm. Built on the prosperity of the woollen cloth trade, it suffered a disastrous fire in 1838 which destroyed no less than 264 houses! Fortunately, some fine Georgian buildings remain in the town centre. The beautiful Church of St Andrew has been described as one of the most magnificent parish churches in Devon. A Farmers Market is held on the 2nd Saturday of the month. A church trail exploring many of the outstanding churches in the area, as well as a local town trail, are available, enabling you to discover the hidden historic and architectural gems of the town and offereing a fascinating insight into their history.
