from wikipedia:
Barnstaple is the main town of North Devon, England and possibly the oldest borough in the United Kingdom. It is a former river port, located at the lowest crossing point of the River Taw, flowing into the Bristol Channel.
From the 14th century, it was licensed to export wool, bringing great wealth to the town
the town centre still preserves a medieval layout and character.
Barnstaple railway station is the terminus of a branch line from Exeter, known as the Tarka Line
Barnstaple was formerly referred to as "Barum", from a contraction of the Latin form of the name
By the 18th century, Barnstaple had ceased to be a woollen manufacturing town
