Modbury Devon Map

About Modbury

Modbury, a South Hams jewel, breathes the quiet grace of Devonshire. It lies 5.1 km south-south-east of Ivybridge (from Ivybridge: bearing 154°T, OS grid SX 658 516), and is situated east-south-east of Ermington village. The heart of Modbury beats around its ancient market square, where the echoes of centuries of trade still seem to linger in the air, a subtle hum beneath the present-day bustle. The surrounding countryside, a patchwork of verdant fields and ancient woodlands, rolls gently towards the distant sparkle of the South Devon coast, its light often carrying a pearlescent quality that softens the edges of the landscape. Modbury's historical significance is palpable in the sturdy stone of its parish church, a sentinel watching over the town, its bells marking the passage of time with a resonant chime. Even the very stones of its older buildings seem to absorb the sun's warmth, offering a comforting solidity.
