South Molton and the places nearby.
South Molton is a North Devon market town on the edge of Exmoor, with a traditional pannier market, a livestock trade and a square of Georgian buildings. It acts as the service centre for a wide farming area stretching up to the moor, where customers may be miles down a lane. For trades, stating a realistic travel radius and naming the outlying villages is essential, and rural customers put real weight on recommendations, so reviews and photos of local jobs work hard.
