Thornbury Devon Map

About Thornbury

Thornbury rests in the quiet Devonshire countryside, a place where the land gently slopes and the air carries the scent of damp earth. It lies 7.4 km north-east of Holsworthy (from Holsworthy: bearing 49°T, OS grid SS 400 084), and is situated south-east of Milton Damerel village. The scattered farms and cottages of Thornbury bear witness to a history of agriculture, their stone walls weathered by the seasons and the persistent Devon winds. Sunlight here often has a soft, diffused quality, filtering through the leaves of ancient hedgerows that stitch the fields together like a well-worn quilt. The quietude of Thornbury is not an emptiness, but a fullness of the natural world, where the lowing of cattle and the distant bleating of sheep form a gentle soundtrack to the days.
