Lynton
Lynton is a small town on the Exmoor coast in Devon, England, being located on top of the cliffs over the picturesque harbour village of Lynmouth, to which it is linked by the Lynton and Lynmouth Cliff Railway. Lynton was at one time the terminus for the narrow-gauge Lynton and Barnstaple Railway, which served both towns. The two areas are governed at regional level by Lynton and Lynmouth Town Council. The South West Coast Path and Tarka Trail go through, and the Two Moors Way ranges from Ivybridge in South Devon to Lynmouth; the Samaritans Way South West ranges from Bristol to Lynton and the Coleridge Way from Nether Stowey to Lynmouth. Half a mile to the west are the incredible Valley of Rocks and Wringcliff Bay. According to the 2011 Census, the town has a permanent population of around 1157 individuals. Indication of Iron Age activity can be found at the nearby Roborough Castle. In Lynton at present is the Parish Church of St. Mary, which stands watching over the sea, encompassed by shops and hotels. The tower is predominantly 13th century but the church itself has actually been enlarged and changed, most noticeably in 1741, when the nave was reconstructioned, and later in Victorian times. Several of the town's structures were constructed 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 significant benefactor of the town, and it was opened on 15 August 1900. He also bestowed the town the Congregational church on Lee Road. For all of your home improvements, be sure to identify credible specialists in Lynton to make certain of quality.
