Publication Details
Blewitt, Octavian. The panorama of Torquay. Second Edition. London: Simpkin and Marshall; Torquay: Cockrem, 1832. p. 89.There are few spots in this neighbourhood which command a greater variety of magnificent scenery than "CHAPEL HILL," a lofty limestone hill, rising above the Newton road at a short distance from the village of Tor. The building which stands conspicuous on its summit is in length 29½ feet, by 14 feet 3, and faces east and west. It is peculiarly situated on the apex of the rock, as if a strong wind would blow it away. [Text may be taken from a different source or edition than that listed as the source by Somers Cocks.]
