-ILFRACOMBE (Holy Trinity), a sea-port, markettown, and '''parish''', in the union of Barnstaple, hundred of Braunton, Braunton and N. divisions of Devon, 11 miles (N. by W.) from Barnstaple, and 187 (W. by S.) from London. This town, which derives its chief importance from its situation on the shore of the Bristol Channel, is not distinguished by many events of historical interest. The church is an ancient edifice, situated on a hill at a short distance from the town; it has been repaired, and the number of sittings increased by the erection of four galleries and an organ-loft. A '''chapel''' has been built and endowed at Lee. There are places of worship for '''Independents''' and '''Wesleyans'''.<ref>Lewis, Samuel A., ''[http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=51060&amp;amp;strquery=Ilfracombe#s18 A Topographical Dictionary of England]'' (1848), pp. 603-608.
