Halberton is a
large rural Parish in the County of Devon between the towns of
Tiverton and Cullompton, close
to the city of Exeter. Outside the village are several small communities and the
hamlets of Ash Thomas and
Brithem Bottom. We are also
lucky to have The Grand
Western Canal which meanders through the Parish
and is a designated
Country Park.
