Northam

Northam is said to have been where Hubba the Dane attacked Devon and was repelled by either Alfred the Great or the Earl of Devon. Another tale recounts that in 1069, three years after King Harold had been slain at the Battle of Hastings, his three sons landed at Northam in an attempt to regain their father’s throne. They came from Ireland with an invasion force of more than 60 ships but their rebellion was mercilessly suppressed at a site just to the south of the town. To this day, it is known as Bloody Corner.
