Black Torrington is a village in the midst of Devon, sitting between the towns of Holsworthy and Hatherleigh. It is situated on and named after the River Torridge.
Within the village is a small but well maintained 15th-century Church of England parish church dedicated to St Mary. There is also a Church of England run primary school adjacent to the church.
The church is of mediæval origin, with a 14th-century chancel, with much of the rest dating from about 1500.
