Burrington Devon Map

About Burrington

Burrington rests in the embrace of North Devon's rolling contours. It lies 11.9 km south-west of South Molton (from South Molton: bearing 218°T, OS grid SS 638 167), and is situated north-north-east of Ashreigney village. The land around Burrington unfurls in gentle, green swells, often catching the soft, diffused light that seems peculiar to this western corner of England. Ancient hedgerows, thick with the murmur of unseen life, delineate fields that have likely yielded harvests for generations, their rich soil a dark, promising hue under the open sky. The quietude of Burrington is punctuated by the murmur of the Taw River, a silvery thread weaving through the landscape, its banks a haven for the shy kingfisher. The very air here seems to carry the faint scent of damp earth and wild thyme, a subtle perfume of the countryside that clings to the stone walls and thatched roofs of the scattered dwellings.
