About Frithelstock Parish, Devon, England

Frithelstock (pronounced Frizzlestock) is civil parish, a village and former manor in Devon, England. It’s located within Torridge local authority area and formed part of the historic Shebbear hundred. The parish is surrounded by the parishes of Monkleigh, Great Torrington, Little Torrington, Langtree and Buckland Brewer.

The name derives from the Anglo-Saxon Frithulac’s Stocc.

The ruins of Frithelstock Priory are adjacent to the north east side of the parish church of St Mary and St Gregory, and represent the only substantial remains of a monastic house in Devon.

The parish church of St. Mary & St. Gregory was enlarged in the 15^th century and underwent a Victorian restoration in about 1870.
