    Barnstaple Facts – Did you know…

    1. The Armada
      Barnstaple supplied 5 of the 200 British ships that sailed to fight the Spanish Armada in 1588. The British fleet led by Sir Francis Drake wreaked havoc, destroying the Spanish ships and securing their place in British maritime history.
    2. Bulletproof
      The Almshouses in Litchdon Street are scarred by bullet holes, left over from the English Civil War. They bear witness to the fact that the town changed hands four times during the course of the conflict.
    3. Liar Liar
      If you look closely at all four faces of the Albert Clock in town square, you’ll notice no two faces tell the same time. An original mistake, it’s now something of a Barnstaple eccentricity, the clock is known locally as ‘the four faced liar’.
    4. Big Ears
      Remains of mammoths have been found locally. For more historic facts and close up encounters, the Museum of Barnstaple and North Devon is well worth a visit.
    5. Big Ears
      Mammoth remains have been found in Barnstaple. For more historic facts and close up encounters, the Museum of Barnstaple and North Devon is well worth a visit.
    6. Fore!
      The oldest golf course in the South West can be found at nearby Westward Ho! The Royal North Devon Golf Clubs was founded in 1864.
    7. Footloose
      If you want to get out on the open road, the Tarka Trail is a series of (car free) cycle and foot paths covering 180 miles. The route heads through forests, moorland, valleys, sandy coves, cliffs and in places is spectacular!

    About

    Historic, lively, picturesque and sunny, this is one of the gems of the South West. The town is packed with interesting and quirky buildings that can be traced to the original merchants. In its time the town has produced wool and clothe, been a major port, a market town, shipbuilder and more.

    Today it still has pretty streets, a weekly market, historic quayside plus Butchers Row, a foodie haven packed with artisan producers making all manner of tasty treats. Another local boast is the association with the Royal Marines who are based just outside the town.

    While Barnstaple’s claims to be the oldest borough in Britain may be hotly contested by other locales, it is certainly one of the most charming.

    Leisure

    History buffs moving to Barnstaple will have plenty to explore. There’s a number of buildings in this historic port, the local museum in particular is a great place to start before hitting the streets and doing your own detecting.

    If you love the great outdoors you won’t be disappointed, you can stroll along the quayside or hit the Tarka Trail which offers 180 miles of traffic free paths.

    The town has a busy events calendar celebrating the history and arts and crafts of the region, as well as beer, food and music festivals. There’s also a theatre, cinema, leisure centre with a swimming pool, plus societies and groups covering a wide array of interests and hobbies.
