More about this scene
Like nearby Tiverton, Crediton did well out of the cloth trade, but when that declined the town stagnated. It seems to have been particularly prone to devastating fires, recorded in 1743, 1766, 1769 and 1772, which probably accounts for the fact that most of its buildings date from the late 18th and the 19th centuries.

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
I was born in this house, in October 1949, Janet Ruth Green. My parents were Alma and Ernest Green. My sister Susan and brother Edward also lived there at that time. Unfortuneatly my father died in1952 and the house was sold. I believe it eventually was turned into flats.
