Tuckenhay Devon Map

About Tuckenhay

Sunlight, when it breaks through the Devonshire clouds, often finds Tuckenhay in a particular, softened glow, as if filtered through ancient glass. It lies 4.6 km south-south-east of Totnes (from Totnes: bearing 159°T, OS grid SX 818 560), and is situated west-north-west of Cornworthy village. The quiet murmur of the River Dart, a constant companion, lends a gentle cadence to the air, a sound that has shaped the fortunes of Tuckenhay for centuries. Here, where the land dips and curves towards the water, the old mills, some still standing as proud, weathered sentinels, speak of a time when the river's power was harnessed for industry, their stone walls absorbing the damp breath of the estuary. The landscape itself, a lush green embrace of rolling hills, feels close and intimate, hinting at the deeper, wilder heart of the South Hams.
