Combe Martin is an interesting study in social history and the changing face of the British village over the last 50-60 years. When my grandparents moved there in the 1970's, you could divide the village into three parts due to its very long main street (Upper/Middle/Lower at the seaside end). Each section was almost a village in its own right, with all having the shops required for the population to exist within the village and not to have to travel outside of it for much. Now, it is largely residential and the three parts all merged to one and a fraction of the shops that there were. It is a village of car owners now and the public transport links are few. Change is a constant, but whilst Combe Martin is a beautiful place, my memory of the village of the past makes this a bitter-sweet video to watch.

I can imagine! Still a lovely place but I'd have loved to have seen it back then

Combe Martin is beautiful it's very quiet on Sundays because there is no public transport on Sunday's main reason I didn't move there because of lack of transport after 6 PM and nothing on Sunday's. It is stunning though
