Brixham
Brixham is a small fishing town and civil parish within the district of Torbay in the English county of Devon. The town is positioned to the southern end of Torbay, across the bay from Torquay. Fishing and tourism are the main industries of the town. The landscape of Brixham is hilly, its dock is continually in use for fishing trawlers. As outlined by the 2011 Census, Brixham features a permanent population of roughly 16,700. The population of the town has been rising since the 19th century, recorded as 3,671 in 1801 and growing to 8,092 in 1901. In spite of the presence of archaeological evidence suggesting the settlement of people in the ice age and trading in the Bronze Age, the earliest specific evidence of the town comes from the Saxon period. It's suggested that the Saxon settlement came from Hampshire in the 6th century. A lot of the town's history can be seen in its street names. For instance, Pump Street is where the pump originally was and Monksbridge was a bridge built by the monks of Totnes Priory. Additionally, there are many famous attractions in the town. The replica of Sir Francis Drake's ship, 'Golden Hind' is an especially successful tourist attraction, which is permanently moored at Brixham's docks. Each summer season, Brixham plays host to the Cowtown carnival, a clear reminder of the time in which Brixham was two distinct communities, having only a marshy lane to connect them. Cowtown was the location on top of the town's hill in which the farmers lived.
