Excerpt from Ashburton and Its Neighbourhood, or the Antiquities and History of the Borough of Ashburton in the County of Devon, and of the Parishes of Buckland-in-the-Moor and Bickington, (Its Ancient Dependencies): With a Minute Description of Their Respective Churches, and of the Chantry Chapel of St. Lawrence, the Old "Free Scole of Aysheberton"In the following pages I have endeavoured to put into a collected form all the information I have been able to procure relative to the history or ashburton and the Parishes in its immediate Neighbourhood.In Books already published, minute particulars have necessarily given place to generalities, since from the magnitude of their various works our Devon shire Historians have never been able to do individual and particular justice to the whole County.In deference therefore to the kind Wishes expressed by many of the readers of those valuable Local Newspapers The Exeter and Plymouth Gazette, and The Western Morning News, I have collected, re-arranged, and added considerably to many of my articles published in the fore journal during last year, and now venture to offer the result of my labours to the Public.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
