It was first settled by the Saxons and because of its favourable location and rich resources was by 1000 AD the centre of one of the major rural communities in Devon. The church, dedicated to St Michael, belonged to the monastery of Mont Saint-Michel at the time of the Domesday Book. After passing through ownership by Syon Abbey in the 15th century, it was bought by Richard Duke at the Dissolution. Duke converted some of the monastic buildings into a mansion, part of which still exists to the north of the present-day church, which was rebuilt in 1869 71 by Benjamin Ferrey.
