Interactive map displaying Morchard Bishop, Copplestone & Newton St Cyres

About

The three villages sit within a patchwork of arable fields, hedgerows and small woodlands typical of Mid Devon. Morchard Bishop forms the largest parish, with a parish church and village hall that act as hubs for surrounding farms and lanes. Copplestone occupies a low-lying spot where the village green serves as a meeting point for local services and occasional events. Newton St Cyres is smaller in footprint but contains housing clustered near the old lanes and farmsteads that follow field boundaries.

Transport and landmarks give the area a clear local identity: Newton St Cyres railway station on the Tarka Line sits close to the River Creedy and provides a frequent connection by rail. On Copplestone’s green a granite cross stands on a stepped base, a long-standing focus for the village. Everyday life here revolves around parish clubs, primary school links, agricultural timetables and seasonal work in the fields, so the pattern of lanes, hedgebanks and small holdings shapes how people move and meet across the three parishes.
