More about Ilfracombe North Devon
Ilfracombe is a seaside resort on the north coast of
Devon, England with a small harbour, surrounded by
cliffs. An occasional ferry service runs from the town
to Lundy Island, Swansea and Penarth in Cardiff.
The main natural landmark Hillsborough Hill dominates
the harbour and is the site of an iron age fortress.
Ilfracombe has been settled since the iron age, its name
is a derivative of the Anglo-Saxon Alfreincoma - by
which name it was noted in the Exeter Domesday Book. The
translation of this name (from Walter William Skeat of
the department of Anglo Saxon at Cambridge University)
means the "Valley of the sons of Alfred". Ilfracombe was
made up of two communities; a farming community around
the parish church called Holy Trinity, parts of which
date from the 12th century; and the other was a fishing
community around the natural harbour beneath the
dominant hill.
The Manor House lands by the church, were first given to
the Champernon family in 11th Century, those by the
harbour the Bouchiers, Earls of Bath. It was a
significant port on the Bristol Channel and in 1247 it
supplied a ship to the fleet that was sent to conquer
the Western Isles of Scotland. Ships were sent to
support the siege of Calais, and it was the
disembarkation point for two large forces sent to subdue
the Irish.
In recent years Ilfracombe has become the home of the
world champion long-jumper Jonathan Edwards. The actor
Peter Sellers first set foot on stage here, and the
Collins sisters Joan and Jackie went to school in the
town.
Each year, the residents and school children of
Ilfracombe celebrate their heritage by taking part in
activities. These include May Day celebrations which
date back to the 16th century. Since 1985 a week long
celebration of the town's boom years has been held,
known as 'Victorian Week'. During the summer months, the
town has an influx of foreign students who study English
at the Channel School.
The town's educational needs are served by three
schools; the Infants, the Junior and the comprehensive
school - Ilfracombe College. Each of these schools is
amongst the largest of their type in the County of
Devon. The college serves the needs of Ilfracombe
residents and those across the North Devon region as far
as Lynton and Lynmouth. This mix of rural coupled with
town dwelling students gives the college a unique
character.
