Scope and Content
Dugdale, James. The new British traveller. London: J. Robins & Co., 1819. Vol II. p. 150. It has been justly observed "that the scenery in the north of Devon, and particularly those parts which abut on the Bristol channel, abound with a peculiar wildness of feature, and romantic character. The vallies are sunk into narrow, contracted glens, many of which have a gurgling rivulet running through their bosom; and their steep sides adorned with mantling woods, and beetling rocks. In the centre of some of these a small village is seen crouching beneath the lofty hills; and from many stations, the tumultuous waves are beheld constantly lashing the rocky shores."[Text may be taken from a different source or edition than that listed as the source by Somers Cocks.]
