Britain's What's On Event Guide
All Saints Church, Eggesford, Mid Devon & Local History Exhibition
Heritage Open Day: Visit All Saints Church, Eggesford and its fine monuments, historic estate church of the Earls of Portsmouth, beautifully situated overlooking the river Taw below Eggesford House, with cream teas and a specially curated local history exhibition. All Saints Church, Eggesford, Devon, was rescued from closure by the Church of England in the 1990s. It represents the heritage of the vast aristocratic estate (at its peak over 16,000 acres with many farms and villages) held by families of regional and national importance, such as the de Reigneys, Chichesters and Fellowes, and later the Earls of Portsmouth.
The Chichesters' earlier Eggesford House was adjacent, before being relocated to today's grand Grade II building higher up the valley.
