Brixham is a town full of fish and chips, glorious beaches, fabulous community events and absolutely phenomenal coastline: but what it's most rich in, is history!
Whether we talk about famous hymns written while watching the sunrise, or the culture surrounding Britain's most profitable fishing port: the red sails in the sunset, or caverns hiding thousands of years of secrets, every corner of our wonderful town is packed full of fascinating heritage.
This heritage is something we're particularly good at celebrating - but what we're not so great at (as a community), is capturing memories and saving them for future generations to enjoy and to marvel at.
Fortunately, the folks at The Heritage Lottery Fund also reckon Brixham and her citizens have memories worth keeping! A grant has been approved and the work begins! The BrixFest committee members alongside representatives from South Devon College, Brixham Chamber of Commerce and individuals in the wider Torbay Community are gathering together to organise Brixham Heritage Trail. The trail will guide visitors around the town from point of interest, to point of interest.
This film is a product of the project, a fantastic full-length video featuring interviews with local people and historical footage and photographs.
