Location

Ipplepen is situated about 3.7 miles (6 km) to the southwest of the market town of Newton Abbot, 5.6 miles (9 km) from the southern edge of Dartmoor and about 6.8 miles (11 km) to the northwest of Torquay. Other nearby villages include Torbryan, Broadhempston, Denbury, Marldon and Abbotskerswell.

Amenities

Ipplepen now has one public house ('The Wellington') and it is situated close to the heart of the village and alongside the main road. The village's second public house ('The Plough Inn') was closed in January 2009 and then put up for sale, it was adjacent to the Conservative Club. There is also a primary school, park, bowling club, village hall, post office, general store, two churches, a medical centre and a Football Club with a very good youth section. The village library was temporarily closed in 2008, while a new library building was being built.[2] The main transport link is the A381 road to Newton Abbot and Totnes.

St Andrews Anglican parish church is a Grade I listed building.[3]

Population

The population of Ipplepen during 1801 and 1901 was 821 and 813 respectively. By the time of the 1991 Census in the United Kingdom, the population of 'Ipplepen with Torbryan' had increased to 2446. The average age was 42 years and 68.9% were described as being in 'good health'.

Archaeology

Archaeological excavations in Ipplepen have found Roman coins, a portion of a Roman road, a Roman age butcher shop, and various broken ceramics of Mediterranean and Gallic origin[4] which once contained wine, olive oil and garum (fish sauce).[5][6][7][8] In 2015 an important Roman cemetery was uncovered by a team from the University of Exeter. Tests on a skeleton demonstrated continuing activity at the site for 350 years after the end of the Roman occupation of Britain in about 410 AD. Archaeologists said that "the discoveries were both nationally and regionally important."[9] The site was originally discovered by metal detectorists.[10]
