The surrounding hills and countryside provide a stunning backdrop, and draw the focus on this significant market town with historic character. It has traditionally provided rest and diversion on the journeys of those travelling far and wide, and remains a prime location with easy access. Road Located at the crossroads of the A30, A35, A373 and A375, it is within easy reach of the primary routes to the North, East and West. The M5 motorway at junction 29 can be reached by dual carriageway along the A30 to Exeter (12 miles) or junction 28 (10 miles) along the A373 to Cullompton. London or South East England is served more directly by the A303 which seamlessly joins the A30 some 6 miles north east of Honiton. The A35 affords easy access to the South Coast and Channel ports providing a very scenic alternative when heading east. Rail The centrally located Railway Station is on the West of England Main Line between London Waterloo and Exeter. Regular services enable travel locally as well as convenient journeys further afield. Rail Information 08457 484950. Air The close proximity and easy access to Exeter International Airport (11 miles) increases links with National and International destinations. The A375 heads south for Sidmouth (10 miles) and access to the ‘Jurassic Coast’. Coach A daily service between Exeter and London Victoria links Honiton to the National Express network. 3| Honiton Town Centre - Street map D R OA R OA D B OT T OM N HO N I T O IS NE HO EA TT RN W LA |4 GR O VE UE EN AV EA T RL D D D R OA BA R I LL TURKS S ID R OA D Roundball Hill R OA E WA Y LL E LM D HI E D B R AN S YN OL Glen IT LP AR HA 5 M UTH WAY MO NUT W ER P A R K R OA D R ES T CH LO T HE S AS -P BY AD CH Honiton H Community Hospital R OA D PINE WE LO RO T LE T O W N AD LI T RO E S N NG LA NPI KE A3 L IL NT tate EE T R Millennium Green E R N OU S VO RE LA N S TR TU Library Honiton Station DOW DE I SH T MEA NE ER Ind EM N KI E LA ark thp Hea E RE QUE CHU AN AD LHE MI L R l Es ia ustr D R OA H ET N D OA ST G ET RE TO R E HI G RE ST ES HEAD AN KIN STREAMER S W St Ritas Centre Bramble Hill Industrial Estate RL ST EN OO Lace Walk Car Park Police Station and coach park R OS A30 ET YM ET TO Museum STREET W TER EX The Beehive RE NK AT E ER TIC NE OT Honiton Community College PINE SILV ST MO W E L Thelma L Hulbert Gallery Mountbatten Park Leisure Centre M A R L P I TS W Railway Station TE A30 NE 0 A3 Information Centre E EX R ANE LL DO OO Public Toilets S CH Car Parks L PE B Y- PA S S Fire Station Coach Park AP LA C OM ULL R OA P T ON RO CL AD Please contact the Honiton Tourist Information Centre for further information. Honiton - Gateway to the West Around and about Honiton stands in the south-east of the county on the main road and rail routes from London to Exeter. ü Allhallows Lace Museum* It is a pleasant, busy market town with a growing population and provides a prime shopping centre for a large part of East Devon. Close to both the Dorset and Somerset borders, recent improvements to the A30/A303 trunk road have attracted people to the Honiton district. Historically, the town was one of the centres of the medieval West Country cloth trade and later became famous for its lace. There is an excellent museum containing the main collection of Honiton Lace, while the High Street hosts specialist shops for both antiques and pottery. The High Street, wide enough to allow parking on both sides, is lined with Georgian buildings, many of which are former coaching inns. Small courtyards and alleyways leading off of the High Street provide further compelling shopping. Renowned for its antiques, Honiton’s world-wide reputation is justified by the large number of antique shops situated in or near the High Street itself. Honiton stands in delightful country of rich farmland watered by the river Otter and several of its tributaries. Steep-sided hills rise between Honiton and the sea, and narrow winding lanes lead to villages that are as charming and interesting as any in Devonshire, providing many miles of footpaths that offer wonderful walking opportunities for the country-lover. There is a local produce market every Thursday between April and December. ü Street Market every Tuesday and Saturday ü Sports Centre and Swimming Pool ü Thelma Hulbert Gallery** ü Many lovely walks and cycle paths ü East Devon World Heritage coastline ü Several beaches within 12 miles ü Easy access to Dartmoor and Exmoor ü National Trust properties and gardens ü Many other places to visit around East Devon Leaflets available from Honiton Town Council, The Beehive, Dowell Street, Honiton EX14 1LZ * see page 9 for more information Local attractions not to miss ** see page 8 for more information • Wildwood Escot - www.escot-devon.co.uk • World of Country Life, Exmouth - www.worldofcountrylife.co.uk • Crealy Adventure Park, near Exeter - www.crealy.co.uk • Donkey Sanctuary, Sidmouth - www.thedonkeysanctuary.org.uk • Pecorama, Beer - www.peco-uk.com • Seaton Tramway, Seaton - www.tram.co.uk • Bicton Park & Botanical Gardens - www.bictongardens.co.uk • Otter Nurseries, Ottery St Mary - www.otternurseries.co.uk 5| Events 2016 There are a number of highlights in all seasons that reflect the traditions and customs associated with the town, in particular Charter Day and the Hot Pennies. Proud of its heritage and world-wide renown, the people celebrate right from the heart of the town, with regular festivals, markets and carnivals in October and December. In addition, there are a wide variety of shows and rallies, including Honiton and District Agricultural Show, which is noted as the largest and most supported one day show of its kind in the country. There is immense enthusiasm and warm welcome awaiting visitors, who can find themselves drawn back repeatedly throughout the year. Hot Pennies The earliest reference to a fair in the town dates back to 1221 and was held on Allhallows Day. In 1247 the fair was moved to St. Margaret’s Day, July 20th. This quirky tradition is opened by the Town Crier carrying a floral pole atop with a golden glove, said to represent that ‘when the glove is up, no man shall be arrested until the glove is down’. Pennies warmed in ovens are thrown out of various inns in the High Street to the assembled crowds. |6 Dates for your diary Honiton Street Market held every Tuesday and Saturday in the High Street.

She became part of the influential Euston Road School of painters (founded in 1937) alongside Victor Pasmore, William Coldstream and Claude Rogers. After the war Thelma Hulbert taught at Camden School for Girls and found a studio in Holland Park from which to paint. She continued her teaching at Central School of Arts and Crafts until retirement, shortly followed by a move to Honiton in 1984. Living alone in Elmfield House, Honiton she continued to draw and paint until her death in February 1995. Throughout her life, the subjects of her paintings were still life, domestic interiors, and landscapes, many of which included the Cornish coast. During her lifetime, Thelma Hulbert was represented in twenty three exhibitions, eight of which were solo shows. The most prestigious of her exhibitions was her one-woman show at the Whitechapel Art Gallery in London in 1962. Examples of her work are to be found in both public and private art collections worldwide and she has been featured on radio and television. Following her death, the Tate Gallery acquired two of Thelma Hulbert’s works for their collection and featured her in the Tate Women Artists book by Alicia Foster (now for sale in the THG Shop). Ad FR m EE is si on of Lace and Local Antiquities In the town famous for lace making Allhallows Museum has the best collection of Honiton lace in the world. Displays in two galleries feature exquisite examples of 16th to 20th century Honiton lace. Other displays include Honiton Pottery; a mid Victorian furnished doll’s house; palaeontology; children’s toys; war memorabilia, mementos of Allhallows School and the Borough of Honiton; coins and trade tokens. There are plenty of activities to amuse the children. A choice of four free children’s quiz sheets are available, with a guaranteed prize on completion, plus puzzles, books and an opportunity for everyone to try lace making. Activities for children.
