Totnes Attractions

 
Totnes (pop. 5,700), in the Dart valley, is an interesting old town of narrow winding streets and gabled houses. Parts of the old town walls have been preserved, including the East and North Gates. The Guildhall (rebuilt 1611), is a relic of the Norman abbey. St Mary's Church (mid 15th century) has a notable west tower and a very beautiful rood screen. The main surviving feature of the Totnes Castle is the Norman keep, from which there is a fine view. The town was formerly an important wool town and is still a busy shopping center for the whole surrounding area. There are boats from Totnes to Dartmouth.
