Chivelstone is a small, rural parish on the southern fringe of the South Hams district in Devon, England, a few miles from Kingsbridge. The parish includes the tiny coastal settlement of East Prawle and the rocky headland of Prawle Point, giving it a mix of rolling farmland and dramatic coastline popular with walkers and birdwatchers.
Historically rooted in agriculture, the area also carries seafaring stories of shipwrecks and smuggling along its cliffs; today the local economy is a blend of farming, small-scale fishing and tourism, with a close-knit community, holiday cottages and a coastwatch presence maintaining the strong sense of place.
