Cornwood is a village and civil parish in the South Hams in Devon, England.

[2] Blachford Manor stands in parkland on the northwest edge of the village, and is surrounded by a 4,000-acre (1,600-hectare) estate.

3,000 protesters gathered in Cornwood to march onto nearby Stall Moor on 21 January 2023.

[4][5] From 1852 to 1959 the village was served by Cornwood railway station on the South Devon Main Line between Exeter and Plymouth.

Thomas Vivian believed his subject matter fell naturally into three sections; the first dealt with verifiable historical events, the second dealt with contemporary and continuing events that characterised a church that had departed from "the Simplicity of the Gospel" and, finally, prophecies for the future.
