We hope that this gallery will develop into a broad collection of photos of the people and places of the Bratton Clovelly parish, including photos taken in previous times as well as current photos showing the many historic places still standing. Please contact us if you would be willing to share your pictures with others through this gallery. It would be good to see both the faces and the properties of the parish.
Thanks very much to those of you who have already contributed photos and helped us to identify photos. We would welcome any more information that you can share on these places.
