Farringdon is a small rural parish in East Devon, Devon, England. Set among rolling farmland and hedgerow-lined lanes, the settlement is made up of a handful of stone cottages, working farms and a medieval parish church that together hint at a long local history.

Traditionally agricultural, the parish still retains a village feel with community events, a village hall and occasional fetes, while some residents commute to nearby towns and others work in small-scale rural enterprises. The surrounding countryside is popular for walking and quiet country living, and the parish’s buildings and records reflect centuries of local life.
