Kingsbridge
Kingsbridge is a market town and also tourist center in the South Hams area of Devon, England, with a population of 6,116 at the 2011 census. Two electoral wards birth the name of Kingsbridge (East & North). Their combined population at the above census was 4,381. It is situated at the north end of the Kingsbridge Tidewater, a ria that extends to the sea six miles southern of the community. It is the 3rd biggest settlement in the South Hams as well as is 32 miles (51 km) south-southwest of Exeter. The community developed around a bridge which was constructed in or before the 10th century between the imperial estates of Alvington, to the west, as well as Chillington, to the eastern, hence providing it the name of Kyngysbrygge ("King's bridge"). In 1219 the Abbot of Buckfast was provided the right to hold a market there, as well as by 1238 the negotiation had actually become a borough. The manor continued to be in ownership of the abbot until the Dissolution of the Monasteries, when it was given to Sir William Petre. Kingsbridge was never ever represented in Parliament or included by charter, the city government being by a portreeve. It lay within the thousand of Stanborough.
