Chudleigh History Group

Preserving Our Parish History

Welcome to the Chudleigh History Group (CHG) website.

Here you will find information on CHG and an overview of Chudleigh's history (under 'About'); scheduled talks, walks and visits ('Events'); research articles on town and parish history ('Articles'); local historical walks ('Walks'); publications by CHG or CHG members ('Publications'); a selection of old photographs and illustrations of local places ('Gallery') and links to a number of relevant external resources ('Links'). If you'd like to contact us to comment on this website or to request potential information we might hold on a topic of your own research, please use the 'Contact' page.

The History Group Logo

The History Group logo is in the form of a shield quartered and is a representation of four coats of arms belonging to families once influential in the parish, these being:

Pynsent
Inglett

Eastchurch
Wychalse

Upcoming events

In September we will have a group tour of Stover Country Park and the Granite Lodge gatehouse, as a follow-up to the mid-April talk on this subject. Details to be advised.
