The main purpose of the Parish Link meetings is to provide an opportunity for both greater liaison and developing closer working relations between the local town and parish councils, West Devon Borough Council, Devon County Council, and the Dartmoor National Park Authority.
Tavistock and its linked parishes form the Southern Link.
We’ve put together a summary table of the Parishes in the Southern Link, for easy reference, and also indicated those parishes wholly or partly in Dartmoor National Park or the Tamar Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty; and whether they are classified by Devon County Council as linked to the market towns of Tavistock or Okehampton.
