TORQUAY and TOR MOHAM PARISH.
TORQUAY, the Queen of
Watering Places, and the Montpellier of England, as it is
frequently called, is a handsome market town, seaport, and bathing place, delightfully
situated on the strand and the picturesque acclivities of the shore
of the northern recess of Torbay, in the parish of Tor-Moham, 22 miles S of Exeter, 7
miles S,E. of Newton Abbot, 8 miles S. of Teignmouth, 12 miles N. by
E. of Dartmouth, and 207 miles W.S/W. of London. Its terraces and suburban
villas extend more than a mile west ward, to the old village of TOR, or Tor-Moham;
and such has been the rapid increase of buildings
and population during the last twenty years, that they may now be considered as
one town, which has been connected with the South Devon Railway, by a branch Railway,
extending about four miles from Kingskerswell to Tor, and opened Dec. 18th,
1848. The Parish of Tor-Moham, or Tor-Mohun,
comprises about 2000 acres of land, occupying most of that
bold promontory which projects eastward into the English Channel, about three
miles in length, and two in breadth, to Hope's-Nose, the point
which divides Torbay and Babbicombe Bay. Its population amounted in
1801 only to 838, and in 1831 to 3582 ; but in 1841 it had increased to 5982
souls, of whom 4085 were in Torquay Chapelry. The parish has now about 9000
inhabitants; and Upton, The central portion of it, between Tor and Torquay, has recently been
made, ecclesiastically, a District Parish, comprising most of the higher parts
of the town. The manor of Tor Moham belonged to Wm. de Briwere, or Brewer, in the reign of Henry II.,
and his younger daughter carried it in marriage to the Mohuns, who had a
sent here in the 13th century, but afterwards sold the manor
to the Ridgways. About 1768, it was purchased of the Earl of Donegal by Sir
Robert Palk, grandfather of its present owner, Sir L. V. Palk, Bart. In 1196,
Wm. Briwere founded toR abbey, in
the south western part of the parish, for Premonstratension canons, and endowed it with
considerable revenues, which were afterwards augmented by his son. On its
suppression, in 1539, its yearly income was valued at £396. 11s., and it had
then fifteen monks, besides the abbot. It was granted, with
the adjacent estate, in 1548, to John St. Leger, Esq., who conveyed it to Sir
Hugh Pollard. It afterwards passed to the Seymours, Ridgways, and Stawells, the
latter of whom sold it in 1692, to Sir George Cary, Kt., an
ancestor of its present owners, Mrs. Cary, and Robert Shedden Sulyard Cary and Robert
Shedden, Esqrs., who reside at the Abbey House, which has
picturesque and well wooded grounds, adjoining the coast, and commanding a
view of the noble bay, and the rocky tors, of hills, in the neighbourhood. The
house is mostly modern, though some parts of the old Abbey are still preserved.
It consists of a centre and two wings; one of which is connected with a
castellated gateway, having octagonal towers and battlements. Beyond this
gateway is a large barn, which formerly belonged to the Abbey, and is decorated
with loop-holes and numerous buttresses, and profusely mantled with ivy. The
Roman Catholic Chapel attached to the house is ornamented with a superb altar,
and fine paintings of the Crucified Saviour and the Virgin Mary. There are
several interesting ruins in different parts of the site, richly adorned
with sculpture, and clad with ivy. The Cary and Palk families own most of the
parish; and the rest belongs to many smaller owners, some of whom have neat houses
here.
Torquay, which was merely a
small fishing hamlet at the close of last century, is now a large and handsome
town, comprising, with its western suburbs of Tor and Upton, about
9000 inhabitants. It is situated at the foot and on the sides and summits of
that bold amphitheatre of hills which rise from its strand and harbour in
the northern recess of Torbay, about two miles from Hope's Nose,—the extreme
eastern point of the promontory. The houses are built of a sort of
transition limestone, or marble, of which the cliffs are composed,
varying in colour, and containing numerous remains of shells and madrepores,
which beneath the lapidary's hands are susceptible of as fine a
polish as the best Italian marble. Such has been the in creasing
influx of visitors to Torquay, during the last ten years, that its number of
dwellings has been doubled in that period, and many wealthy families have now
handsome mansions here, in which they reside continually, or during autumn and
winter. Few places possess a more inviting appearance, especially as a winter
residence, being open to the sea breezes of the south, and sheltered by lofty
hills from the piercing winds of the north, east, and west. The
lower part of the town, built round three sides of the harbour, with the
quay and piers in front, is occupied chiefly by the shops and houses of the
tradesmen. The next tier, which is approached by a winding road
at each end, and by steps in other places, comprises handsome terraces, as
also do the upper tiers, and the detached hills on either side; where the
ranges of neat houses and elegant villas, towering one above another, on
the rocky platforms, gracefully exhibit their marble fronts amid the luxuriant
foliage of various trees and shrubs, which bedeck their pretty
gardens, the carriage roads, and the intervening slopes. The sides and summits
of the beautiful valleys on either side are dotted over with cottages,
pavilions, and detached villas, to the extent of about two miles; and the once
secluded cove of Meadfoot, more than half a
mile east of the Quay, has recently been adorned with several handsome
terraces, and with a row of fifteen large and elegant mansions, called Hesketh Crescent, and erected by
those spirited architects and builders, Messrs. J. T. and W. Harvey. The views
from the various terraces are magnificent, taking in the whole of Torbay, where
numerous fleets can ride in safety ; and where is always to be seen the trim yacht and
pleasure boat, the dusky sail of the Brixham trawler, or coasting
merchantman ; and frequently one of Britain's bulwarks—a man-of-war. The
beautiful scenery and marine villas along the shores of Torbay on the south,
and Babbicombe Bay on the north, are already noticed at
preceding pages, in the descriptions of the neighbouring parishes of St.
Mary-Church, Cockington, Paignton, and Brixham.
Babbicombe, Anstey's Cove, the Bishop of
Exeter's new Palace of Bishopstowe, and the large
cavern called Kent's Hole, are noticed at pages 437-8 (see St
Marychurch entries) ; and the landing of William Prince of Orange, at page 420 (Brixham
entry).
Here are hot, cold, shower, and vapour baths, for the invalid and the
convalescent; and an illimitable ocean bath of spotless purity, for the
recreation of the healthy bather and the experienced swimmer. On the beach and
sands are found a variety of beautiful pebbles. The opening of a new road, and
the cutting away the base of Waldon hill, in 1842, brought the beautiful beach
along the sands of Livermead within ten minutes' walk of Torquay. Here are all
the usual requisites of a favourite watering place, including assembly
rooms,
reading rooms, libraries,
literary institutions, a museum, &c ; and a regatta takes place
yearly, in July or August. The climate of Torquay is so mild, that
citrons are produced in the open air, and myrtles grow in gardens
to a great size and age, as also do many tender exotics. The first houses at
Torquay are said to have been erected about the end of the last century,
for the accommodation of families of officers and invalids belonging to the
Channel fleet, which was frequently at anchor in Torbay during the last French
war. After this, its reputation for the restoration of invalids spread rapidly,
and from that time to the present it has continued to increase in buildings
and population faster than any other watering-place in Devon, The Quay
and Piers, which enclose a basin 500 by 300
feet, were formed under an act of parliament obtained in 1800, but the western
pier was not completed till many years afterwards. A small Market Place was built near the
strand, in 1823 ; but in 1849, the Torquay Market Company obtained an act of
parliament for the erection of a spacious Market Place, Slaughter Houses, &c.: and these and other
improvements are now in progress. The markets, held every Tuesday and
Friday, are well supplied with all kinds of provisions. Gas
Works were constructed in 1835, by a company of
proprietors, in £5 shares. The government of the town is vested with a
body of Commissioners, who are elected annually, under a local act of
parliament. It is well supplied with water, brought in iron pipes from
springs in the neighbourhood, and is within the limits of the
port of Dartmouth. Its commerce consists chiefly in the importation of coal,
timber, and other articles for home consumption ; but it has a small
trade with Newfoundland, and a number of coasting vessels trading to London,
&c. as well as steam packets , which ply regularly to Guernsey, Jersey, Plymouth,
Portsmouth, and Southampton. The Town Hall is a plain building, in Lower
Union street, where petty sessions are held every Monday, by the
magistrates of Paignton Division, to whom Mr. G. E. Hearder is clerk. Another
public building in the same street is called Union Hall, and is used for
lectures, theatrical exhibitions, &c. At the Royal Hotel is a
large Assembly Hoom, very chastely fitted up for balls, concerts,
&c.; and at Hearder's Family Hotel is a spacious Subscription Reading and News
Room. The large centre mansion on the Higher Terrace has been
opened as a Club House, by many of the nobility and gentry of the town
and neighbourhood ; but its ground floor is occupied by the Natural History
Society, which has a valuable library and museum, and was established in
1844. Here is also a Literary and Scientific Institution, an Horticultural
Society, a Mechanics' Institute, a Temperance Hall, and a Book
Society. On the Torwood road, adjoining the town, are the Public
Gardens, comprising about four acres of land, lately
appropriated by the lord of the manor to the use of the public, and tastefully
planted and laid out with gravel walks, forming a pleasant sheltered promenade.
churches
and chapels— The Parish
Church at Tor-Moham, more than a mile west of the Quay, is an ancient structure,
which was re-pewed and thoroughly repaired in 1849, It has an embattled tower,
two galleries, and a good organ; and contains some handsome monuments, one of
which supports the effigy of one of the Ridgway family, father of the first
Earl of Londonderry-, who resided at Torwood manor house, now pulled down. The
living is a perpetual curacy, valued at £360 per annum, with that of
Cockington annexed to it. C. H. Mallock, Esq., is the patron, and
the Rev. J. H. Harris, D.D,is the incumbent. The living has been augmented by
Queen Anne's Bounty and Parliamentary grant; and the great tithes were
purchased some years ago, by the two principal land owners. On the summit of a
hill is the shell of St. Michael's chapel; and there was another small chapel
at Torwood, built by Reginald de Mohun,in 1201. Upton District Parish Church
(St. Mary Magdalen,) is near the lush road between Tor and Torquay, and is
a handsome Gothic structure, which has been recently erected by subscription,
and was consecrated April 12th, 1849, but the intended tower and spire are not
yet built, it is neatly fitted up with open seats, and has room for about 1000
hearers. The late P. Dawson, Esq. gave £2000, on condition
that a large portion of the sittings should be free; and the site
was given by Sir L. V. Palk. It has been endowed, and constituted a parish
church, by the Ecclesiastical Commissioners, and its perpetual curacy, valued
at £130, is in the alternate patronage of the Crown and the Bishop of
Exeter, and is now enjoyed by the Rev. R. R. Wolfe, M.A. St. John's Chapel
of Ease, at Montpellier place, in the centre of Torquay, was built inn 1823, by Sir L.
V. Palk, Bart., and was enlarged at the east end about sixteen years ago. It is a neat structure, partly in the Doric order, and has a small cupola and bell.
It has about 500 sittings, and its east window has been, enriched with stained
glass. Its perpetual curacy, valued at £207 per annum, is in the
patronage of the incumbent of Tor-Moham, and is now enjoyed by the
Rev. W. G. P. Smith, M, A. Trinity Chapel, at Park hill, Torquay, is a
neat cemented structure, of mixed architecture, which was erected by
subscription, in 1837-8, at the cost of about £5500, and will seat nearly 900 hearers. The
Rev. Richard Fayle, M.A., is the incumbent and patron. There is a Roman
Catholic Chapel at Tor Abbey, as noticed at page
445. Here are three Independent Chapels, situated in Lower Union street,
Braddon's place, and Abbey road. The latter was built in 1847, at the cost of
£2200,
and is a handsome building in the Italian style. There is a Baptist Chapel in
Temperance street; an Unitarian Chapel, in Lower Union street; a Wesleyan
Chapel, in Warren, place, built in 1807; and an "All Christians"
meeting-house, in South street, Tor, There are large National
Schools at Pimlico and, East street, built in 1836 and 1841; and another at
Meadfoot, erected in 1842. The latter belongs to Trinity Chapel; and there are
also schools attached to St. John's and some of the other places of worship.
The various congregations are liberal contributors to various institutions for
the relief and the religious instruction of the poor.
The Torbay Dispensary and Infirmary was established
in 1844, but the handsome building which it now occupies
was not erected till 1850. Here are Clothing Clubs, a Lying-in-Charity, a Shipwrecked
Fishermen and Mariners' Benevolent Society; several Friendly Societies, and a
Lodge of Freemasons. The latter is at the Union Hall. The poor parishioners have the interest of £62, left by Thomas
Kingsley and other donors; and the dividends of £468. 8s, 6d. Navy five per cent, stock, purchased with £500
left by George Baker, in 1800.
