Newton Abbot, Devon

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

Newton Abbot is a large town in south Devon, close to Dartmoor National Park. The town was granted a market charter in 1220, and though it was a thriving market town through the Middle Ages, Newton Abbot really owes its prosperity to the coming of the railway in 1846. The story of the Great Western Railway is told in the Newton Abbot Museum on St Pauls Road. Nearby is Bradley Manor, a medieval manor house dating to the 13th century.
