Great Torrington, generally abbreviated to Torrington, is situated on an inland cliff top overlooking the deeply wooded valleys of the River Torridge. The town commands spectacular views of a landscape captured by Henry Williamson in his novel Tarka the Otter in 1927. This ancient market town is home to world famous Dartington Crystal glass and to Rosemoor, the renowned RHS gardens and woodlands. The Battle of Torrington in 1646 marked the end of Royalist resistance in the West Country and, today, Torrington is regarded as an important heritage centre.
