Hoskins, W. G. Devon. London: Collins, 1954. p. 355.Buckfastleigh was "the clearing of Buckfast" and probably originated in the 13th cent. The parish church (Holy Trinity) stands above and away from the town, on a high limestone rock which commands a view of the abbey, the Dart valley, and the beautiful woods. [
