Scope and Content
A guide to Ilfracombe, and the neighbouring towns. Ilfracombe: J. Banfield, 1845. Third Edition. p. 26.A path to the eastward, through the Quay-fields, leads to Heale, and continuing the cliff road to Watermouth and Combmartin, forms one of the most beautiful walks in the neighbourhood. On quitting the field-path, the lane to the left, will lead to Hillsborough, or Elsborrow, its more ancient name, which rises 447 feet above the level of the sea. By ascending to the top, from whence the view is peculiarly fine, the stranger may observe the remains of a hil fortress.[Text may be taken from a different source or edition than that listed as the source by Somers Cocks.]
