Stockleigh Pomeroy is a tiny rural village and civil parish in Mid Devon, Devon, England, set among the rolling hedged farmland and narrow lanes typical of the area and within easy reach of Exeter and Crediton.
Its name reflects historic ties to the Pomeroy family after the Norman Conquest, and the village still centres on a historic parish church, scattered farmsteads and traditional cottages. Agriculture remains important locally, while the small, close‑knit community and quiet countryside make it popular with walkers and anyone seeking a glimpse of Devon’s rural heritage.
