Newbridges is a largely rural ward in East Devon, Devon, England, made up of small villages, hamlets and farmland. The landscape is typical Devon - rolling hedged fields, narrow lanes and wooded valleys - and the name hints at old crossing points over local streams that helped shape settlement patterns.
Locally the economy centres on agriculture, small-scale tourism and residents who commute into nearby towns such as Exeter, while village halls, parish churches and a few community-run pubs and clubs sustain a lively social life. Historic farmhouses, hedgerow biodiversity and good walking country make it appealing to walkers and those seeking a quieter rural lifestyle.
