Christow is a small rural parish in Teignbridge, Devon, England, tucked into the Teign Valley on the banks of the River Teign and close to the eastern fringes of Dartmoor. The surrounding landscape is a mix of rolling farmland, wooded valleys and moorland approaches, popular with walkers and riders travelling between the moor and nearby towns such as Exeter and Newton Abbot.
The village has a historic core of stone cottages and a parish church and was once linked by a rural branch railway; today the local economy is largely agricultural with a modest contribution from tourism and commuters. Community life is active around the village hall and pub, with seasonal events and outdoor recreation drawing visitors to the Teign Valley countryside.
