COLEBROKE (St. Mary), a '''parish''', in the union and hundred of Crediton, Crediton and N. divisions of Devon, 4½ miles (W.) from Crediton, on the road to Oakhampton. The hamlet of Coplestone, in the parish, formerly had a '''chapel''', and, according to some, a mint and prison. The church is an ancient structure, with a very handsome tower. In the north-east angle is a screen of carved oak, separating a sepulchral chapel, which formerly belonged to the Coplestone family. Lewis, Samuel A., A Topographical Dictionary of England (1848), pp. 659-663. http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=50889 | |||
