A PLACE WORTH KNOWING
Take a small piece of Devon home
Contemporary craft from more than 50 local makers, gathered in a community-run shop on Chagford’s square.
ARTISAN puts the work of local hands at the centre of a Chagford visit. This largely volunteer-run community interest company brings together more than 50 makers, with ceramics, textiles, jewellery, woodwork and other small discoveries sharing the shelves. The range makes it an enjoyable place to compare textures and techniques, from a patterned pot to a woven basket or a piece of glass. Its purpose reaches beyond the till, with profits supporting arts and crafts in the community. Come with a particular person in mind, or simply follow the thing that makes you stop; this is a pleasing alternative to a predictable souvenir.
