Scope and Content
Tugwell, The Rev. George. The North Devon scenery-book. 2nd Edition. London: Simpkin, Marshall, & Co. ; Ilfracombe: John Banfield, 1863. p. 133.Of the things to be seen in and about Ilfracombe itself, a few notes must now be made. The harbour, though small and adapted only for small craft, is picturesque, owing mainly to its surroundings: on the south side a wooded hill rises abruptly, [
] ,opposite is the jagged outline of Lantern-hill above mentioned, with the desecrated Chapel of S. Nicholas on its summit, in front the bold mass of Hillsborough with its buttresses of sharp black rocks running far out into the white foam of the blue sea.[Text may be taken from a different source or edition than that listed as the source by Somers Cocks.]
