Clyst Hydon - St Andrews Church

Clyst Hydon is a village and civil parish in the county of Devon, England. It was in the Cliston Hundred and has a church dedicated to St Andrew.[1] The parish is surrounded, clockwise from the north, by the parishes of Cullompton, Plymtree, Payhembury, Talaton, Whimple, Clyst St Lawrence and Broad Clyst.[2]

The village is four miles from Cullompton. It has a primary school, Clyst Hydon Primary;[3] other amenities include a pub/restaurant [4] and a sports club.[5]

From 1971–74 the village was the site of an artists colony which published the radical Beau Geste Press, a small press that worked in the lineage of the Fluxus and mail art movements.[6]
