Colyton Tannery

Highlight • Structure

Britain’s only remaining traditional oak bark tannery, this impressive building sits on a Roman site and has been in use as a tannery ever since. Here, the hides are soaked for a year in huge pits before being sold to create high quality leather products. Out of the way in this East Devon village, without knowing the tannery was here, you could easily walk right past this historic building and business.

Bridge Over the River Coly

An old bridge over the Coly River, on the way into (or out of) Colyford. Some nice views over the river and floodplain to the east.

Colyton Town Center

Highlight • Settlement

105 Colyton men (more than any other Devon town) chose to follow the Protestant Duke of Monmouth in his rebellion against the Catholic King James II. Many were killed, hanged or sent into slavery. A little more peaceful now. The bike shop here is not at all rebellious.
