About East Town

East Town’s quiet presence is felt most keenly in the soft light that spills across its fields, a gentle illumination that seems to linger a little longer here than elsewhere. It lies 0.6 km east of Crediton (from Crediton: bearing 84°T, OS grid SS 838 003). The land around East Town gently rolls, a landscape shaped by centuries of cultivation, where hedgerows, thick with the scent of hawthorn in spring, trace the old boundaries. Its houses, often of stone quarried from the surrounding hills, seem to belong to the earth they stand on, their red-tiled roofs catching the afternoon sun. There is a sense of continuity, of lives lived in a steady rhythm, the echoes of which can almost be heard in the rustle of leaves from the ancient oak that presides over the green. The air here carries the faint, earthy aroma of the nearby fields, a testament to the enduring agricultural heart of this corner of Mid Devon.
