Torridge is best known within England for the River Torridge, which gives this North Devon district its name. The river runs through a predominantly rural area of fields, wooded valleys and small settlements before meeting the sea at Bideford. Its course is closely associated with Henry Williamson’s 1927 classic Tarka the Otter, a story rooted in the rivers and countryside of North Devon. The district also encompasses part of the North Devon coast, where the estuary landscape contrasts with the inland farmland.
