From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Christow is a village located on the edge of Dartmoor National Park, England. It has been around for hundreds of years nestled on the side of the Teign Valley. The village is presently home to around 850 people and grows slowly. It is situated 5 miles from the small town of Chudleigh and 8 miles from Exeter (this being about 30 minutes travelling time). It has two shops, a post office, two pubs, a pet crematorium and a Community Hall. Admiral Edward Pellew is buried in St James' church
It was home, in his later life, to Arthur Marshall, who fictionalised it as "Appleton".
