Aveton Gifford

Aveton Gifford Aveton Gifford is a small rural village in the South Hams of Devon. It lies at the head of the estuary of the River Avon.

It receives its name from this river and also from the family of Giffard who held the manor. Walter Giffard came across with William the Conqueror and helped with the Domesday Book. The correct pronunciation of the name is a source of continuing and fruitless debate, the alternatives are 'Awton Jifford', 'Averton Gifford' or varying combinations of the two. Today, it is frequently known locally as 'AG', a simple solution to the problem.

Hall parking request -
Please can the parking spaces beside the hall be kept free, just for tomorrow - Wednesday - so that the gutters can be pressure washed before the fascia boards are painted
with many thanks to everyone in advance
And thanks to everyone who has come along this week to help with all the preparation and painting, it’s going to look great

This includes our residents in AG as well -
We are invited to come along tomorrow evening to hear about the new proposed community “Bigbury Turbine Project” at the Memorial Hall, 7.00 pm.
This replaces last year's project which was presented by Octopus Energy. It would now be an entirely community owned turbine - where all profits are focussed on local community benefits.
Please come to ask questions and make suggestions.

This is not a drop in session. It starts at 7.00 pm and will end around 8.00 pm but can go on longer if needed.
