Village Events

Following widespread discussion, CMCCT have set up a small group to further the idea of Heritage Tours. Work has been undertaken to identify Heritage attractions/elements within Combe Martin, and a leaflet will be produced. Thereafter, Partners will be sought to market and promote the Heritage Tours, which we hope will take place twice a year.
