***************************************************************************************************
Clovelly is a harbour village in the Torridge district of Devon, England. Its steep pedestrianised cobbled main street, traditional architecture, donkeys and views over the Bristol Channel attract numerous tourists. At the 2011 census, the parish population was 443, which was 50 fewer than ten years previously. The ward of Clovelly Bay includes the island of Lundy.
An entrance fee is charged to enter the village via a village visitor centre which also charges for parking, entrance to two museums, Clovelly Court gardens, and an audiovisual history guide.
The South West Coast Path National Trail runs from the top of the village. The village is privately owned, by John Rous as of March 2021; he inherited in 1983. The village "has mainly been in the Hamlyn family since 1738", and he is of that line.
Clovelly was a solely agricultural parish with no harbour until the late 16th century, when the squire, George Cary, had the stone pier erected, thus providing the only haven on this coast between Appledore and Boscastle. He also erected fish cellars and warehouses at the cliff base, and cottages along the banks of the stream that provided the only route to the shore from the plateau above. The works cost him £2,000 and turned Clovelly into a fishing village.
In 1901 the village had a population of 521.
The privately owned village and has been associated with only three families since the middle of the 13th century. The estate is run by the Clovelly Estate Company, led by John Rous, a descendant of the Hamlyn family who have owned the village, estate and manor house, Clovelly Court, since 1738. As of 2021, Clovelly included approximately "80 cottages, two chapels, two hotels", woodlands and about 2000 acres of farmland. The village encourages tourism and has been financially successful in that endeavour as of 2019.
The village has an RNLI lifeboat station with its boat, the Toby Rundle, installed in 2014.
The village main street is not accessible by motor vehicles.
The lack of vehicular access to the main street has led to deliveries being made by sledge. This is not done as a tourist attraction, but as a matter of practicality. Goods are delivered by being pulled down on a sledge from the upper car park, and refuse is collected by being pulled down the hill to a vehicle at the harbour.
Clovelly has two hotels: the 400 year old New Inn, in the heart of the village and the C18th Red Lion on the quay.
Once a bustling fishing port, Clovelly was renowned for its herring and mackerel and, although fishing has declined, it is still very much a part of village life. Clovelly is also today famous for its lobsters (and crabs), which are sent away as far afield as France and Spain. In past centuries, the coastline was occupied with smuggling, wrecking and piracy and was notorious for shipwrecks.
On Sunday 28 October 1838 twelve fishing vessels with a total of twenty-six men on board left Clovelly harbour for the fishing grounds. Only one vessel and its crew ever returned after a ferocious storm in the Bristol Channel. This event led to the founding of the Shipwrecked Mariners' Society early the following year. The charity is active in supporting the seafaring community suffering hardship and distress.

8:45 It seems to me just a fantastic view from the windows of this house!
Yes such a beautiful view. Thanks very much for watching :)
Love this video. No cars x
Thank you so much. It was lovely to walk around without any traffic :)
@@TVJourneys i DOUBT IF '' CARS'' HAVE EVER, been down those slopes, BUT, that back lane running parralel to the Main st. has a Land Rover service, for us old 'uns to use. At least they did about ten yrs ago when I was last there. In ''the old days'' as most people know, all goods ,useing Mules, carried all their needs down and up that Steep, Slippy Cobbled Street. Even today, sledges are used to move goods up and down the slopes.
wow amazing cobbled streets kind of wondering though about how places get deliveries there as dont seem to have any road access looks a great quiet place to live though
*full view always👍Au👍left a like*
Thanks very much Billy. I think most goods come into the village via sledge, although I noticed quite a few cars parked at the bottom, round the back of the Red Lion pub, so I think there must be a road tucked around there somewhere. It's a really unique place, so picturesque, i really enjoyed my walk there :)
This could be also characterized as the "Mediterranean like" part of Britain 😊
Yes it's lovely isn't it 😊 thanks so much for watching 💕
Been here twice..make sure you have good shoes on is my advice....
Yes definitely, those cobbles are not the easiest to walk on, especially as it's quite steep too :)
Hello guys.. Can i share your video in my channel youtube.. And i will little bit editing and then i will write your channel for watching original video..
Hello, thanks for your comment. We do not allow the use of any of our videos on our channel. Thank you for your interest. Very best wishes TV Journeys
とてもクール！ いいぞ！ 気に入った:)あなたも私をサポートしてくれることを願っています
Thanks for watching :)
Why did my ancestors leave this place
Lovely place but don't get conned by paying the entrance fee. The streets are public and free to access, should you choose not use the private car park and access thru private land
