Using the power of moving water to drive a mill wheel is an ancient invention of the human spirit of discovery, the origins of which can be traced back to times long past. Thanks to such a construction, human or animal muscle power could be easily replaced by the power of the natural elements through a watercourse - natural or artificially created - in order to grind grain into corn or press oil from fruit, for example. There are essentially two different ways of driving watermills: * Either the flowing water simply hits the blades of the water wheel from below to set it in motion; or * the water is guided above the wheel - usually through a so-called "mill channel" - and falls onto the blades; this type of construction is more efficient due to natural gravity.

After the Protestant Reformation, many people continued to practice their Catholic faith. Devon and Cornwall were areas where instruction to change was disregarded but when Edward VI became King in 1547, he was determined to stamp this out. In 1549, The Act of Uniformity banned Catholic Liturgy replacing it legally with the Book of Common Prayer. Other events occurring at the same time which significantly impacted the people of Devon and Cornwall, such as a poll tax on sheep, combined with the imposition of the Book of Common Prayer and with it the use of the English language, resulted in a rebellion of several thousand. The rebellion was crushed and thousands massacred. The Battle of Fenny Bridges was fought just behind this memorial.

At the heart of village of Whimple is a village square and a Norman Church, St Mary's. Although fairly small, there are two pubs, a village shop and a post office. The tradition of Wassailing is enjoyed in Whimple on 17th January and it attracts many spectators. Wassailing is a pagan practice of visiting orchards on the old twelfth night to sing songs and make a lot of noise to the fruit trees to ward off bad spirits and to please the spirits of the fruit trees.

Broadclyst is situated in the Killerton Estate, owned by the National Trust. Yellow cottages line the main road which marks them out as being part of the estate. Here you will find a number of thatched cottages and even a thatched bus shelter. In 1870, a huge fire swept through the village which left 250 people homeless. Houses rebuilt after the fire are known as 'New Buildings' with around 30 original medieval properties which survived the fire.

B&B & holiday cottages available. Good centre for exploring Devon from an attractive and historic setting.

The Trout Inn at Bickleigh closed down in 2018. Other options for refreshment in Bickleigh are the Fisherman's Cot or Bickleigh Mill - both do meals and both are licenced.

Bickleigh Castle is a lovely manor house on the banks of the River Exe. Although the main building was destroyed during the Civil War, the central courtyard and other historic buildings still stand today. The original Norman motte castle was built in the late 11th century. Nowadays, the castle is used to host weddings, but it's still an interesting place to stop and take a look.

The Fisherman's Cot pub occupies a rather lovely position on the banks of the River Exe and sits opposite the 17th-century Bickleigh Bridge. While the pub is lovely all by itself, it is also famous for something else. In the 60s, Paul Simon visited and is said to have got his inspiration for the song, 'Bridge Over Troubled Water', after seeing the Exe flow beneath Bickleigh Bridge. Once you know this, it's impossible to cross the bridge without getting the song stuck in your head, as I can attest. Lucky it's a fantastic piece of music.
