The lifestyles of the people of Devon have traditionally been as diverse as its spectacular scenery. Little wonder, then, that the county's curious stories are so numerous and so varied. A train trapped in a giant snow drift in Devon's worst blizzard; ancient Phoenician myths from Hartland; the Devon origins of British banking; Lapford's murderous parson; Exeter FC's game against the Brazil; the strange origins of well-known sayings; Devon's ill-fated involvement in D-Day at Slapton Sands; black magic on Dartmoor; the oldest bakery in the world in Plymouth; visitations by the Devil in South Devon; the four great fires of Crediton; architectural curiosities; witchcraft; heroes; piracy, record breakers; villains; and eccentrics.
