Combe Raleigh

Combe Raleigh (/kuːm ˈrɑːli/) is a village and civil parish in the county of Devon, England.

[3] The word 'Combe' is of Celtic origin meaning 'valley' (the same as cwm) whilst the name 'Raleigh' comes from the Raleigh family's ownership of the village in the thirteenth century.

The 15th-century parish church (St. Nicholas) has six bells[4] and its minister is shared with the nearby village of Awliscombe.

In the past twenty to thirty years agriculture has declined considerably in the area, but the village does have three horticulture-based businesses.

The most recently opened business being St. Isidore Agriculture Ltd. Media related to Combe Raleigh at Wikimedia Commons
