About

Chittlehampton ward encompasses a rural expanse in the fertile valley of the River Taw, characterised by scattered farmsteads and the historic village of Chittlehampton itself. The area is primarily agricultural, with a landscape of rolling fields and wooded valleys typical of North Devon. The ward includes the smaller settlements of Filleigh and Umberleigh, the latter situated along the railway line that provides a transport link through the region.

The parish church in Chittlehampton village, dedicated to St. Hieritha, is a prominent 15th-century landmark with a tall tower visible across the countryside. Local activity centres on farming and the community facilities within the village, including the school and village hall. The area is crossed by several walking routes, including the Tarka Trail, which follows the course of the old railway along the river valley.
