Northway Devon Map

About Northway

Northway breathes the quiet air of Devon's western reaches, a place where the land slopes gently towards the sea's distant murmur. It lies 8.0 km west-south-west of Bideford (from Bideford: bearing 246°T, OS grid SS 380 234), and is situated north-west of Horns Cross village. The fields surrounding Northway often catch the pale, diffused light of the English coast, a light that seems to imbue the very hedgerows with a subtle luminescence. Ancient stone walls, mended over generations, trace the contours of the land, hinting at a history of patient cultivation. The air here carries the faint, salty tang of the Atlantic, a constant reminder of the wilder coast not far away. Even in the quietest of moments, one can almost hear the echo of footsteps that have walked these paths for centuries, a quiet procession across the enduring landscape.
