	Devizes - LoveToKnow 1911
		Devizes (Divisis, la Devise, De Vies) does not appear in any historical document prior to the reign of Henry I., when the construction of a castle of exceptional magnificence by Roger, bishop of Salisbury, at once constituted the town an important political centre, and led to its speedy development.
		After the disgrace of Roger in 1139 the castle was seized by the Crown; in the 14th century it formed part of the dowry of the queens of England, and figured prominently in history until its capture and demolition by Cromwell in the Civil War of the 17th century.
		Devizes became a borough by prescription, and the first charter from Matilda, confirmed by successive later sovereigns, merely grants exemption from certain tolls and the enjoyment of undisturbed peace.

		"To have played for Devizes 500 times is a bit of a milestone, but they really have flown by." Despite starting life as a centre forward Coombes made his debut for the senior team in defence when he was aged just 21 and his hero was Swindon Town defender Colin Calderwood.
		Devizes lost 5-2 to Kingstonian, but he said he felt it was an incredible achievement considering Town was the lowest non-League side left in the competition at that stage.

		Devizes took the lead early by using their weight advantage in the forwards to good effect and making use of some quick three quarters to punch holes in the home defence.
		At 20 points to 8 with just over a quarter of the game remaining the task looked too difficult but some good handling by the Vale backs and straight running by the forwards allowed them to touch down twice more and the kicks put them 2 points ahead.
		Devizes continued to press but Vale once more made gradual progress into the travelling sides 22 and an opportunist try gave them enough of a margin to hold on to seal the victory.
