About

The area around Kilmington, Colyton and Uplyme lies where small river valleys cut into the eastern edge of Devon countryside. Fields, orchards and hedgerows sit on rolling slopes and narrow lanes link scattered farmsteads and hamlets. The River Coly runs through Colyton while the River Lym rises near Uplyme and drops through a steep, wooded valley; both rivers shape the pattern of meadows and lanes. Medieval parish churches mark long-settled sites and a network of public footpaths follows old boundaries and streams.

Settlements range from Colyton’s compact High Street with a mix of historic houses to Uplyme’s lanes climbing the Lym valley and Kilmington’s dispersed farms and small clusters of dwellings. Colyton hosts a selective secondary school that draws pupils from across East Devon and the villages keep everyday services such as village shops, pubs, halls and primary schools. Local life still revolves around agriculture, riverside walks and community facilities that sit close to the waterways and the fields they irrigate.
