Description
Book SynopsisFrom moorland taverns to ancient coaching inns, and from harbourside hostelries to backstreet beerhouses - the history of Devon's pubs is as rich, diverse and colourful as that of the county itself. Over 450 of Devon's pubs - some long gone, some still thriving - feature here in archive photographs and tales from the past.
