Horwood Devon Map

About Horwood

Horwood breathes the quietude of North Devon's rolling fields. It lies 4.9 km east-north-east of Bideford (from Bideford: bearing 75°T, OS grid SS 502 276), and is situated west of Lower Lovacott village. The ancient church of St. Mary, with its sturdy tower, surveys the surrounding landscape, a silent witness to centuries of changing light and seasons. Here, the hedgerows seem to hold their secrets close, their tangled branches a testament to the slow, deliberate pace of rural life. The air, often carrying the scent of damp earth and distant woodsmoke, wraps around the small cluster of dwellings like a familiar cloak. Horwood offers a stillness that can feel both profound and comforting, a place where the passage of time is marked by the turning of the agricultural year.
