On display in the West Country for the first time, the unique Elizabethan maps will be displayed in the former home of Sir Francis Drake, one of the key figures in the resistance against the Spanish Armada in 1588. The maps were also the source material for the mid-century murals in the Nave Gallery by artist Roland Pym, which will be on display together for the first time. Normal admission to Buckland Abbey applies.

More about Widewell

Devon, England

Widewell sits quietly in Devon, a place where the rain knows how to wash the cobblestones clean and the locals know exactly when to step out for a pint or a play. With no big venues listed yet, we're keeping an eye on what's popping up so you don't have to wander far to find something fun. We'll be filling in those blanks as things take shape, making sure you never miss a local show or a community gathering down the road. Think of us as your friendly neighbour who has just remembered that the village hall is hosting a film night next Tuesday.
