Lynton
Lynton is a town on the Exmoor coast in Devon, England, being set on top of the cliffs over the stunning harbour village of Lynmouth, to which it is linked by the Lynton and Lynmouth Cliff Railway. Lynton was formerly the terminus for the narrow-gauge Lynton and Barnstaple Railway, which served both towns. The 2 areas are governed at local level by Lynton and Lynmouth Town Council. The South West Coast Path and Tarka Trail pass through, and the 2 Moors Way ranges from Ivybridge in South Devon to Lynmouth; the Samaritans Way South West runs from Bristol to Lynton and the Coleridge Way from Nether Stowey to Lynmouth. Half a mile to the west are the spectacular Valley of Rocks and Wringcliff Bay. In accordance with the 2011 Census, the town has a permanent population of around 1157 people. Indication of Iron Age activity can be found at the close-by Roborough Castle. In Lynton in the present day is the Parish Church of St. Mary, which stands towering over the sea, surrounded by shops and hotels. The tower is primarily 13th century but the church itself has been enlarged and adjusted, most notably in 1741, when the nave was reconstructioned, and later in Victorian times. Much of the town's structures were installed in the latter part of the 19th century and the early 20th century. The town hall was awarded to the town by Sir George Newnes, Bart., a major benefactor of the town, and it was opened on 15 August 1900. He also bestowed the town the Congregational church on Lee Roadway. For all your home renovations, make certain to find reputable experts in Lynton to make certain of quality.
