East-The-Water is a suburb of Bideford that, as the name describes, is on the eastern bank of the River Torridge to the main town. It operates fairly independently as it has its own shops, pubs, community halls and a well-regarded primary school. East-The-Water was once the mining heart of North Devon, with the unique form of coal Bideford Black sourced from the area all the way to the sea. Chudleigh Fort and park is close by and commands great views of Bideford and the old bridge.
In the wider area, Bideford boasts a host of pubs, restaurants, a weekly cinema, nightclubs and various sporting clubs to join/follow. It has many open spaces to explore as well as pleasant river walks along the River Torridge or by the working Quay. Bideford is one of the main hubs for banks and chain stores in North Devon, but it also supports a raft of interesting independent shops and small businesses in its narrow streets. Check out the Pannier Market and Market Place shops for its array of craft and farm food stores.
East-The-Water is within short driving distance of the Atlantic Highway (A39) that is the main feeder route across the region leading to Wadebridge in Cornwall to the south-west and to the M5 by Tiverton in the east. A regular bus services provides access to North Devon's capital, Barnstaple. Bus users can also reach Westward Ho!, Bideford, Braunton, Appledore, Croyde and Ilfracombe.
