	Britannia History: Overview of Devon
		During the Roman occupation of Britain, the area, that later became known as Devon, was the dominion of the Celtic tribe of the Dumnonii, the "Deep Valley Dwellers".
		Devon was originally part of the Wessex Sees of Winchester and then Sherborne but, in AD 905, it was given its own Bishop, based at Bishop's Tawton, though quickly transferred to Crediton.
		Devon mostly favoured Parliament at the outbreak of the English Civil War but a prevailing desire for peace brought about a treaty for the cessation of hostilities in both Devon 7 Cornwall in 1643.

	GENUKI: Devon History (1850)
		In Devon, as in other parts of the kingdom, the conqueror dispossessed the Saxons, and after appropriating part of their manors and estates to himself and family, he gave the rest to his Norman friends and followers, especially such as had distinguished themselves in clearing with their swords his way to the throne.
		Devon cattle, cream, and cider are all equally famous, and of late years the practice of agriculture in all its branches, has made great progress in the county; with but little assistance from the great land owners, who have, however, during the last two years, made some advances towards the permanent improvement of their estates.
		In many districts of South Devon, the soil and climate are admirably suited for crop of early potatoes to be followed by turnips; or for producing crops of rye, winter vetches, andc., for spring feed.

	Bishop of Exeter
		He united the two sees, whose territory covered Devon and Cornwall respectively, and chose the cathedral at Crediton for his seat.
		In 1050 Lyfing's successor, Bishop Leofric, moved the seat of the united see from Crediton[?] to Exeter, thus making the abbey church of St. Peter's monastery Exeter Cathedral and making himself the first Bishop of Exeter.
		In the 19th century, the Diocese of Exeter was redivided along the Devon-Cornwall border with the founding of the Diocese of Truro[?].

		Glad to see Connolly and Larrieu though.Larrieu did flap prior to the own goal but made a superb save with his legs,save around the post and the tip over the cross bar was great.
		Delighted to see that the Argyle player who was such a joke in the midlands is not proving to be such a joke with the Greens or with Bobby Williamson.
		If teams study us they will see that we are a very succesful team of hustlers and battlers but tend to sit back as the game progresses relying on our defence to keep the opposition at bay.

	Exeter Cathedral - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The founding of the cathedral at Exeter, dedicated to Saint Peter, dates from 1050, when the seat of the bishop of Devon and Cornwall was transferred from Crediton because of a fear of sea-raids.
		A Saxon minister already existing within the town (and dedicated to Saint Mary and Saint Peter) was used by Bishop Leofric as his seat, but services were often held out of doors, close to the site of the present cathedral building.
		In 1107, William Warelwast, a nephew of William the Conqueror, was appointed to the see, and this was the catalyst for the building of a new cathedral in the Norman style.

	Britannia Biographies: Leofric, Bishop of Exeter
		Leofric was the mid-11th century successor of Bishop Lyfing to the Sees of Crediton and St. Germans (Cornwall).
		In 1050, Bishop Leofric, removed the Episcopal seat for the united Sees of Devon and Cornwall from Crediton to Exeter.
		Devon and Cornwall had been frequently overrun by the Northmen, who had not spared the religious houses, and who, whilst wintering at Exeter, as they had done more than once, must have readily found their way to Crediton via the river or along the ancient hill road.

		The setting is Cornwall, where mild-mannered US academic David Sumner (Dustin Hoffman) has bought a house with his young English wife Amy (Susan George) in the village where she grew up.
		But if in his earlier films, this masculinity was explored by the interrelation of the (anti)hero with the people he respects (being friends or foes), in Straw Dogs, the concept appears in the figure of an isolated man and his struggle to fit in the model of masculinity he (and his wife) thinks appropriate.
		Of course, we will see how wrong they both were when this "masculitiny" turns out to be confused with repression first and pointless violence later.

		Shortly after his accession to the English throne we meet Leofric as his chaplain, to whom he gave an estate now called Holcombe, in the parish of Dawlish, in the county of Devon, " cuidam meo idoneo capellano, Leofrico onomate nuncupato, septem mansas in Doflishe." The original grant is in the archives of the cathedral.
		He further made Leofric his chancellor for a short period; and promoted him to the charge of the united sees of Devon and Cornwall.
		Crediton was then a defenceless town, in comparison to Exeter, which had rapidly recovered from its disasters inflicted by the Danish invaders; and Leofric contemplated a removal of his residence into this fortified city, the capital of Devonia, læta fluviis nemorumque comâ.

		A somewhat ham-handed Longfellow parody has Hiawatha out with the Devon and Somerset staghounds and failing to be in at the kill: ‘Very wroth was Hiawatha/ To have missed the glorious finish.’ But a high proportion of their verse is jingoistic stuff hymning the glories of Empire and the virtues of being English.
