Residents in Ashburton and the Adjoining Parishes in 1588
Trans. Devon. Assoc. vol. 28 (1896) pp. 247-256.
by
J.S. Amery
Prepared by Michael Steer
The lay subsidy tax of 1588 valued the community of Ashburton at £30/00/05 and the names recorded in that document as well as those for 1599 are the focus of Amery's paper. Ashburton had parliamentary representation from 1640-1868. The community had a grammar school from 1593. Ashburton's adjoining parishes include: Buckland, Bickington, Widecombe, Holne, Ilsington, Staverton, Woodland and Denbury.
