-COUNTISBURY (St. John the Baptist), a '''parish''', in the union of Barnstaple, hundred of Sherwell, Braunton and N. divisions of Devon, 15½ miles (E. byN.) from Ilfracombe. This parish, which is situated on the shore of the Bristol Channel, and near the junction of the counties of Devon and Somerset, is bounded for some miles on the south and west by the small, rapid, river Lyn. The spring tides here rise to the height of 30 feet. The scenery is of bold and rugged character, softened occasionally by woodland and pastures.<ref>Lewis, Samuel A., [[http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=50899|''A Topographical Dictionary of England'']] (1848), pp. 700-702.
