REVELSTOKE, a '''parish''', in the union of Plympton St. Mary, hundred of Plympton, Ermington and Plympton, and S. divisions of Devon, 7½ miles (S. by E.) from Earl's-Plympton. The parish is situated on the coast, and bounded on the north and west by the river Yealm. The church, which is supposed to have been built in the reign of Henry VIII., stands close to the rocks of Bigbury bay in the English Channel, within a few yards of the cliff. A building, '''formerly a dissenting meeting-house''', has recently been consecrated as a '''chapel of ease'''.
