PILTON, in the hundred of Braunton and in the deanery of Barnstaple, adjoins the 
town of Barnstaple. The village of Bradiford is in this parish.

In the year 1345, a market on Tuesday, at Pilton, and a fair for two days at the 
festival of St. Matthew, was granted to the prior of Pilton....

Ralegh, in this parish, gave name to, and was the original seat of the ancient family of 
Ralegh. After eight descents, the heiress of the elder branch brought the manor of 
Ralegh to the Chichesters. From them it passed, by successive sales, to Champneys 
and Hooper. The heiress of the latter married Basset, of whose descendant it was 
purchased by Robert Newton Incledon, Esq., the present proprietor. Ralegh House is, 
or was lately, occupied as a woollen manufactory, for flannel, worsted stockings, &c. 
Little Ralegh belongs to George Acland Barbor, Esq., of Fremington...
