Located in the centre of the village, there has been a church in what we now call Whimple since Saxon times. St. Mary’s was massively rebuilt and extended with a new south aisle in 1845 by Charles Force, an Exeter builder, to the designs of John Hayward, the leading local church architect in the diocese at that date. In amongst what was new in 1845 some of the fabric from earlier versions of the church, from the 15th and 16th centuries, still survives.

When? The FIRST THURSDAY of the month - from 7:30pm onwards.
Where? Sundowners Cafe (15 Strand, Exmouth, EX8 1AD)
The very informal social event starts at about 20:00 but is usually preceded from 7:30-ish by a "29 Minutes" session (arranged by Transition Exmouth) in which someone leads a short talk / presentation / discussion / Q&A.
Who can come? Exmouth Green Drinks are open to anyone who wants to socialise with other environmentally aware people. Come down for the whole night or just one drink - it's all very friendly and informal :-) Oh, we are NOT affiliated with the Green Party... although some regulars may well be!
Officially part of the Green Drinks International network since 2014 (although there were Green Drinks in Exmouth many years before this incarnation).

And that’s ride2cop26 finished.
- 570 miles
- Loads of punctures
- Lots of weird snack combinations
- So much fun
- Some very gritty moments
- Lots of rain
- And most of all, so many incredible people who took part in the cargo relay or just joined for the ride for a few miles.
The greatest Thankyou to all the people who were involved.
Onwards to @cop26uk and then turning this adventure into a film (where we aim to share all the amazing stories of the climate crisis and collective action, we have heard along the way)

From towering granite tors to breathtaking rivers, Devon's is an ancient landscape that has drawn and inspired our ancestors. The ancient idea of pilgrimage is as much about the personal inner journey as the destination. Devon Pilgrim follows this living tradition.
We invite you to walk these pilgrim routes, some ancient, some new, which connect tors, stone crosses, holy wells and tiny churches, standing stones and cathedral.
Re-root yourself in Devon's landscape and the spiritual traditions which run like a thread through it. Whatever your journey, we invite you to wander with us.
